Behind the design

Seven vows

Ashna means beloved, and at a wedding that word is promised seven times over, once with every vow made around the sacred fire. Seven oval diamonds are set along the chain, one for each of those vows, with black beads resting between them. They lie long and flat against the skin, one soft line of light that works under a blazer and with a sari. It is a mangalsutra for being someone's beloved, seven promises over, every day after.
