Kundan
Kundan is one of Rajasthan's most celebrated jewellery traditions — a technique so intricate that even experienced craftsmen work slowly. The process involves setting coloured stones into a highly refined gold foil (called kundan) by pressing them carefully into a base metal frame. What looks effortless is actually hours of precise handiwork. Arihant Novelty applies this same jewellery-making discipline to rakhis, producing pieces that look like they belong in a display case.
Each kundan rakhi in this collection features gemstone-coloured stones — ruby red, emerald green, deep navy, pearl white — set by hand into gold-tone bases. The result is a rakhi that catches light the way fine jewellery does, without the fine jewellery price tag. These are designs with real presence on the wrist, and brothers often keep them long after Raksha Bandhan has passed.
Who it's for
Kundan rakhis are the right choice when you want to give something that feels genuinely special. They suit brothers at any stage of life and work particularly well for Bhaiya-Bhabhi matching sets — the stone colours can be coordinated across both pieces. If you want one rakhi that makes an impression, this is the category.

How ordering works →Frequently asked questions
- What is Kundan work in rakhis?
- Kundan is a Rajasthani technique where coloured stones are hand-pressed into a refined gold-foil base. Each stone is individually set — no glue, no machine.
- Will the stones fall out during delivery or wearing?
- No. Kundan stones are pressure-set into the metal frame, not glued. They are secure with normal wear and checked before leaving the workshop.
- Are kundan rakhis heavy to wear?
- Slightly heavier than thread rakhis, but designed for comfortable all-day wear — comparable to a simple bangle.
- Can a kundan rakhi be worn after Raksha Bandhan?
- Yes — many brothers keep kundan rakhis as a bracelet through the year. The stone settings and gold-tone finish hold up well with everyday wear.
