An Ode To The Bride In You – Our Karwa Chauth Jewellery Collection
Karva Chauth goes beyond being a festival for married women; it is a lot more than just the fasting and dressing up with all the elaborate Karwa Chauth jewellery. It is a blend of devotion, love and of course celebration.
On this day, women fast and pray for the long lives of their husbands – what starts before the sun rises, goes on till the sunset, and it is only after the sighting of the moon, that the fast comes to an end. While the day might be spent taking care of the household or at office, come evening, women take the time to dress up. Although some women choose to dress up in their bridal finery, there are others who like the ‘glam look’ without going overboard. And no matter which category you belong to, Unniyarcha has the perfect type of jewellery for you.
The dressing up, the jewellery and the makeup go beyond getting ready for the festivities. It is about the woman showing how much her husband means to her – this day is a celebration of love shared between the couple, the trust that exists within them and of course, a sense of gratitude for each other.
The Legends And Stories – Going Beyond Jewellery For Karwa Chauth
As is with many of the festivals in our country, Karva Chauth too has certain stories and legends associated with it. Here are some of the most popular ones:
-
There was once a devout woman named Karva, completely dedicated to her husband. One day, a crocodile caught her husband. In a bid to rescue him, she tied the crocodile with a cotton thread and prayed fervently to Yama, the god of death. Impressed by her love and devotion, Yama blessed her husband with a long life.
-
Another story is that of Queen Veeravati – as she observed her very first Karva Chauth after her wedding, her brothers watched her with care and love. Decked up in bridal finery and jewellery for Karwa Chauth, she soon grew hungry, thirsty and weak and seeing this, her brothers felt sad. In an effort to help, they tricked her by showing a false moon and she broke her fast. Soon, she received information that her husband had died and a heartbroken Veeravati prayed fervently to Goddess Parvati. Pleased with her devotion, Parvati gave her another opportunity to complete the fast and as soon as she completed the fast honestly and correctly, her husband came back to life.
-
It is also said that there is a story related to Karva Chauth and Mahabharata – when Arjuna went to the mountains for penance, Krishna suggested that Draupadi fast for his safety and long life.
