Grand Baguette Collar Choker with Maang Tikka and Drop Earrings

Tall collar chokers have their roots in Edwardian dog-collar necklaces and the royal jadau collars of Rajasthan. This piece belongs to both traditions: a broad, upright band of stones that lengthens the neck and gives the wearer an unmistakable poise.

How it is composed

Rows of baguette-cut stones run vertically through the band, alternating with lines of small rounds, so the collar reads as a series of fine columns. The lower edge flares into a band of pear and marquise shapes, softening the geometry where the choker meets the collarbone.

A matching maang tikka — a pendant worn at the parting of the hair — carries the same baguette-and-pear vocabulary, and the earrings are long rectangular drops that echo the columns of the collar.

The colourway

In White, every stone is clear, so the piece reads as pure light against the metal — a choice that never argues with an outfit. There is one version of this piece, and the stones were chosen for it deliberately.

The making

Its two-tone finish is deliberate. White rhodium-look plating frames the stones to sharpen their brilliance, while a gold tone behind keeps the piece warm against the skin. The base metal is brass, and every stone is hand-set in prongs.

In the box

You receive the collar choker, a maang tikka and a pair of drop earrings. Every set is examined before it is packed, and arrives in a Keyura Luxe wooden presentation box made to be kept rather than discarded.

Styling

Best with an open neckline and hair worn up or sleekly back, so that the full height of the collar is seen. It suits strong colours — emerald, sapphire, deep red — as well as classic ivory, and it photographs beautifully in profile.

Where it belongs

A choker is the piece a bride is photographed in most, because it sits closest to the face. This one is scaled for the wedding day itself, yet restrained enough to return to at a reception, an anniversary dinner or a family celebration, worn on its own with nothing but the earrings.

From our hands to yours

From inspection to delivery, every Keyura Luxe order is handled with care: checked by hand, presented in a wooden box and shipped insured free of charge. If you would like advice before ordering, our specialists are available on WhatsApp.

A note on materials

It is crafted from plated brass set with cubic zirconia rather than precious metal and natural stones. We say so plainly, because a piece chosen with full knowledge is a piece enjoyed with confidence.

Keeping it beautiful

To keep the finish bright, put it on after perfume and cosmetics, avoid water, and wipe it gently with a soft, dry cloth after each wear. Return it to its box, away from other pieces, so stones cannot rub against the plating.
