The way these four strands of lustrous imitation pearls cascade, perfectly punctuated by sapphire blue and emerald green accents in the intricate gold-toned sections, immediately brings to mind the grace and intricate beauty required for a classical Bharatanatyam performance. For over 57 years, Shanthi Tailors has understood the delicate balance between durability and dazzling stage presence, and these mattals are a testament to that expertise. They are designed to complement traditional Bharatanatyam jewellery sets, adding an elegant extension to your earrings that secures your hairstyle and enhances the overall visual appeal of your dance costume. The vibrant blue and green stones are carefully set to catch the light, ensuring they sparkle even from a distance.
Elegance for Every Performance
These pearl mattals are an essential accessory for any serious Bharatanatyam dancer, providing not just aesthetic enhancement but also practical support. We’ve seen countless young artists wear these during their Arangetrams, appreciating how they frame the face beautifully and add a touch of traditional opulence without the weight of real gold. The design, featuring a prominent triangular top piece with a single green stone amidst a cluster of blue, is a classic motif that resonates with temple jewellery aesthetics, making it versatile enough for various classical dance forms.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is a Mattal and how is it typically worn for dance?
A: A Mattal, also known as an ear chain, is a traditional Indian jewellery piece that connects the earring to the hair. For Bharatanatyam, it's typically hooked onto the earring post and then secured into the hair or bun with a pin, ensuring the earring is held firmly in place during dynamic movements and adding an elegant cascade of pearls or stones alongside the face. We've been helping dancers secure their jewellery for decades!
Q: Are these imitation pearl mattals suitable for an Arangetram performance?
A: Absolutely. These pearl mattals are an excellent choice for an Arangetram. Their classic design, combined with the vibrant blue and green stone accents, provides the traditional look required for such a significant event without the prohibitive cost of real gold and pearls. Many of our customers choose these for their durability and authentic stage presence, a recommendation we’ve confidently made since 1967.
Q: How should I care for my imitation jewellery to maintain its shine?
A: To keep your imitation pearl mattals looking their best, always wipe them gently with a soft, dry cloth after each use to remove any sweat or makeup. Store them in an airtight bag or box, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Avoid contact with perfumes, hairsprays, and lotions, as these can dull the finish over time. This simple care routine ensures your jewellery remains radiant for many performances to come.
Q: What materials are primarily used in the construction of these Mattals?
A: These elegant mattals are crafted using high-quality imitation pearls, which provide a classic luster, alongside synthetic sapphire blue and emerald green stones for vibrant detailing. The base structure is made from a durable, gold-toned base metal, chosen for its strength and ability to maintain its finish, giving you a beautiful and long-lasting accessory for your classical dance needs.
