The Story of the Kolhapuri Saaj

The Kolhapuri Saaj is far more than an ornament — it is a cultural emblem of Maharashtrian womanhood. Rooted in the jewellery traditions of the Kolhapur region, this necklace features beautifully sculpted leaf pendants known as saaj pan. The Kudi (earring-shaped) pendant at the centre is a signature design element, representing femininity and artisanal heritage passed down through generations.

A small-size Saaj with 9–10 pendants is the contemporary choice — elegant enough for daily festive wear, yet authentic enough to honour tradition.
