# What Is Pakistani Gold Jewellery?

Pakistani gold jewellery is known for its exquisite craftsmanship, high-purity gold, and elaborate, statement-making designs. Crafted mainly in 21ct or 22ct gold, it holds significant cultural and emotional value, frequently worn during **weddings, Eid celebrations**, and major life milestones.

Its aesthetic blends **Mughal influence**, **floral filigree**, and **bold forms**, making it both visually striking and rich in tradition.

### Distinct Features of Pakistani Gold Jewellery

- **Gold Purity**: Predominantly crafted in 21ct and 22ct
- **Design Identity**: Grand, detailed work with motifs like paisleys, florals, [chandbalis](https://www.purejewels.com/product/22ct-gold-filigree-chand-bali-1-75-inches-50770/), and peacocks
- **Cultural Role**: Worn as a symbol of wealth, honour, and femininity, especially for bridal and festive occasions
- **Techniques**: Hand-finished filigree, [meenakari (enamel)](https://www.purejewels.com/product-category/collections/meenakari-collection/), kundan settings, and intricate engraving
