Jhumka and chandbali earrings in the Kolkata trade
Jhumkas, the bell-shaped drop earrings, and chandbalis, the crescent-moon shape, are on every jewellery counter in the city, from light everyday pairs to heavy bridal ones made to match a necklace. Ear chains (kanbala) and the bridal kaan are made to order.
Earrings are small, quick to make and sold by weight plus making charge, so they are where buyers compare shops most. The same jeweller who sells the bridal set will usually make the matching pair.
In Kolkata the same jeweller generally makes and sells the whole range — necklaces, earrings, bangles and bridal sets — so this site lists the city's gold jewellers once, area by area, rather than splitting them by item. They are all below; each name opens its own page.
