Mustachioed Rajahs glitter with gold, their Rani consorts drip with jewels, and against the backdrop of lush jungles and open floodplains, a story unequaled in history unfolds. 'Jodha Akbar' is a historical drama about the dynastic rulers of India, and the elaborate jewelry they wear is available for purchase in costume versions. This jewelry follows the styles of Indian royalty from the Akbar period during which extreme ostentation was highly prized, so many pieces include full chokers connected to fanning necklaces with earrings that practically drip with flashing stones and gold filigree. Often, the pieces are meant to resemble mosaic art and religious votive art, so the patterns on the large throat and neck pieces are repeated at the wrists and on the ears to make the decorated body a kind of repeated prayer. This effect is striking and, if one is dressing up for a costume party as a character from the show, these pieces are an absolutely essential component. You can find 'Jodha Akbar' jewelry through the vast inventory of costume jewelry on eBay.
