NagaQï Viridian Empress Necklace
Echoing the mystique and regality of the NagaQï (Serpent), the Viridian Empress Necklace is a bold statement of protection, wisdom, and opulence. Meticulously crafted in 18K gold, it features an elaborate pendant duo: a rectangular panel encrusted with polki-style uncut diamonds, followed by an intricate teardrop medallion adorned with kundan settings and rich green meenakari enamel. The triple-strand mala is strung with radiant emerald-toned beads and lustrous seed pearls, forming a powerful harmony between grandeur and grace. Perfect for heritage soirées and modern-day royalty.

Nornaments has partnered with 5+ institutes for Jewelery authenticity.
Design
The journey of an idea from seed to flower can be a long & difficult one, but full of unexpected joys. Here’s a sneak peek into Nornament’s Design Process...often, we guide the materials, often the materials guide us – like these beautiful multi-coloured tourmalines whose inner light called out to be paired with sparkling diamonds!
Materials
Sushma's process did not begin with design but that very first step of sourcing the best gems and metals to give form to her vision. That’s the essence of Nornament!

Mould
An integral part of jewellery-making, we use flame & heat to hand-mould pieces to our vision; a technique that has been used in India since the past 5000 years!
Cast
Like all forms of art, jewellery-making is also an exercise in experimentation! Playing with colour, texture, light & form is second nature to us.
A sense of adventure tempered by know-how has led us to experiment with different stones for this necklace-in-process.
Weld
When the metal that has taken shape is removed from the mould, parts of the metal are connected together and joints are made using the process of welding.
Set
Here, one of our karigars is soldering and fabricating a pair of diamond earrings. Each intricate detail, each swirl is controlled by his knowledge and our vision. Since our inception, we’ve been incredibly blessed to work with the finest karigars, who not just through their artistry, but their passion, make our dreams into a reality.
Polish
A karigar hand-polishes a sculptural gold bangle - slowly, you will see how the light glints off the surface. This is where Nornament’s Design Pillars come into play, where the values of quality, artistry and authenticity become more than just words but meanings that we hope characterise our brand and offering.
