Since then, it has been a tradition that is still maintained and continued by some blacksmiths in villages of West Bengal and Orissa. A unique mold is created by hand for each individual object, which is then broken after the firing process. This means that every metal part, no matter how small, is unique. Handcrafted Dokra Jewelry From Dokra bracelets to Dokra necklaces to Dokra earrings – Dokra jewelry is traditionally handcrafted and brought to life. The subtly shiny gold surface of Dokra jewelry does not tarnish and is therefore a long-lasting and beautiful jewelry companion. The uniqueness gives the Dokra jewelry wearer a special and individual touch, which clearly stands out from all other types of jewelry.
