Mangalsutra Jewellery: 

The mangalsutra is a black bead jewellery worn by married Hindu women. Every region in India has unique black bead designs of mangalsutra. The black bead jewellery typically consists of black beads hung on a thin string of base metal with a pendant in the centre. The pendant designs differ from region to region, with Lakshmi thaali worn by Telugu brides, ela thaali or minnu worn by Malayalee brides, two vatis worn by Maharashtrian brides, etc. The modern imitation mangalsutra or black bead jewellery is designed for functionality and aesthetic appeal. It comes in different styles and designs. You can get minimalistic to heavy imitation mangal sutra to suit your purpose.  

The black bead necklace is generally available in single or dual strands and has matching earring sets. Different motifs can also be carved on the mangalsutra pendant, such as temples, flowers, birds, etc. The pendant designs on the mangalsutra can vary with pure metal or studded stone pendants. Both look equally appealing as pure metal pendants have intricate carvings in different shapes, and the stone-studded pendants sparkle and glow with the brightness of the stones. Imitation black bead jewellery is usually made of brass alloy with plating in yellow-gold, white-rhodium, white-gold, etc. 

Imitation mangalsutra or black bead jewellery is perfect for daily use, parties, festive occasions, family events, etc. It can be worn easily with formal wear and Western outfits. If taken care of properly, imitation mangalsutra can last long. Remember to remove it before bathing and avoid wearing perfumes or other chemicals that may cause it to lose its shine. The best way to store your black bead jewellery is in a jewellery box so it doesn't get entangled with other pieces.
