Shaped like the crescent moon and inspired by the grand archways of Mughal architecture, chandbali earrings have stayed a jewellery-box staple for centuries. At Vasundhara, our Chandbali Earrings are handcrafted with artificial kundan, semi-precious stones and rhodium-plated metal, keeping the traditional silhouette but finishing it with a lighter, more wearable build than an heirloom piece — so you can reach for them for both a wedding and a Friday dinner out.
What Are the Different Types of Chandbali Earrings?
Kundan Chandbalis
Our signature style, set with kundan stones in the classic crescent frame. These pair naturally with sarees, lehengas and anarkalis, and work as the centrepiece of a festive or bridal look.
Pearl-Drop Chandbalis
A softer take on the design, with pearl drops hanging from the chandbali frame. These suit daytime weddings, receptions and mehendi functions where you want shine without too much weight.
Oxidised Chandbalis
For an earthier, more rustic finish, oxidised chandbalis bring contrast to brighter outfits and are a favourite for Navratri, Diwali and other festival dressing.
Lightweight Chandbalis
Built for comfort, these retain the chandbali shape but shed the extra weight, making them practical for long wedding days, office festive-wear days, or anyone new to the style.
Statement Chandbalis
Larger, more elaborate designs with layered stone work, meant for the wedding stage itself — sangeet, reception or the main ceremony.
How Do You Style Chandbali Earrings?
Match a kundan or statement chandbali with a solid-colour saree or lehenga so the earring stays the focal point, and keep the rest of your jewellery minimal — a simple bangle or a single ring is usually enough. For daily festive wear, a lightweight or pearl-drop chandbali pairs well with a kurta or a simple anarkali. If you’re dressing for a wedding, complete the look with our Designer Necklaces for Women or a Maang Tikka in a matching stone.
