The precise placement of each rich ruby kemp stone within the fanned tail of the peacock motif on these mattals immediately tells us they are destined for the stage. We've seen these pieces bring a vibrant, traditional finish to countless Bharatanatyam performances, where every detail, especially the ear adornment, contributes significantly to the overall Margam presentation. This particular design, with its cascading four-tiered peacock pattern, ensures visibility and grace even from the back rows of an auditorium, a crucial consideration for any classical dancer.
The Grandeur of Margam Adornments
- Stage-Ready Radiance: Each individual peacock motif, meticulously set with premium ruby red kemp stones and accented with a sparkling white CZ cluster and emerald green eye, is designed to catch the light beautifully. These mattals ensure your ear adornments are a captivating part of your overall Bharatanatyam jewellery set.
- Traditional Motif Mastery: The recurring peacock design is a timeless symbol in Indian classical dance, representing grace and beauty. These mattals feature four distinct peacock units on each side, connected by a delicate chain and finished with charming pearl drops, creating a fluid and elegant extension from your earrings.
- Enduring Craftsmanship: Handcrafted on a durable silver base with authentic gold leafing, these mattals are built to withstand the rigors of frequent use. Shanthi Tailors has been a trusted name in dance costumes and accessories since 1967, and we understand the need for jewellery that is both stunning and resilient for arangetram and performance wear.
💡 Curatorial Insight: Perfecting Your Dance Look
When selecting mattals, consider the length and the number of tiers. These four-tiered peacock mattals are ideal for dancers who want a prominent, traditional look that complements a full Bharatanatyam costume without being overly heavy. They pair exceptionally well with larger jhumkas or stud earrings, creating a seamless line of adornment that frames the face and enhances your classical dance presence. We often recommend this style for arangetram candidates seeking that authentic, polished finish.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is a Mattal and how is it typically worn for classical dance?
A: A Mattal is an ear chain or ear extension that connects your earring to your hair. For Bharatanatyam and other classical dances, it's typically hooked into the back of your earring and then secured into your hair or bun with a hair clip or pin. This ensures your earrings stay in place during dynamic movements and adds a traditional, complete look to your Bharatanatyam jewellery set, as we've advised thousands of dancers since 1967.
Q: Are these Peacock Mattals suitable for an Arangetram performance?
A: Absolutely. These Peacock Mattals are a popular choice for Arangetrams because their traditional design and vibrant kemp stones offer excellent stage presence. The multi-tiered peacock motif is a classic element of temple jewellery for Bharatanatyam, providing a rich, authentic finish that is highly visible and photographs beautifully for such a significant event.
Q: How should I care for my Temple Jewellery Mattals to maintain their shine?
A: To preserve the beauty of your silver base, gold-leafed temple jewellery, always store your mattals in an airtight box or pouch away from moisture and direct sunlight. After wearing, gently wipe them with a soft, dry cloth to remove any oils or sweat. Avoid exposing them to perfumes, sprays, or harsh chemicals, as this can affect the gold leafing and kemp stones. This simple care routine ensures your Bharatanatyam accessories last for years, a tip we've shared with our customers for over five decades.
Q: What materials are used in the construction of these Peacock Mattals?
A: These Mattals are crafted with a high-quality silver base, meticulously layered with traditional gold leafing, which is characteristic of authentic temple jewellery. They feature premium Kemp (Spinels) stones in ruby red and emerald green, complemented by sparkling cubic zirconia (CZ) accents, and finished with delicate cultured pearls. This combination ensures both a rich aesthetic and lasting quality for your classical dance performances.
