A passage to India at L’Indochine

MANILA, Philippines - The crafts of India are diverse, rich in history and religion.  Reflecting the influence of different empires, Indian crafts are part of the culture and tradition within rural communities.

The adventure continues as L’Indochine’s takes us to a passage to India in its latest collection of expertly curated and exquisitely designed jewelry.

In India ornaments are made practically for every part of the body.  In ancient times, rajahs and majarajas rivaled each other to possess the most exquisite and magnificent pieces of jewelry. 

Different regions have their own unique jewelry making styles – Jaipur is famous for the art of enameling or meenakari; Orissa and Andhra Pradesh are known for fine filigree work done in silver; Nagercoil is renowned for its temple jewelry.  A wide variety of silver beads are found all over India, especially in Rajasthan, Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, and Himachal Pradesh.  L’Indochine’s collection of brass bangles, statement necklaces, and dangling earrings reflects this rich tradition.

L’Indochine stores are located at the 3rd level of SM Aura Premier and at the 4th level of SM Mega Fashion Hall.
