traditional Kerala heritage necklace known as a Thalikkoottam (or Thali Kootam) choker necklace.
Design Details
- The Style: It features a closely fitted collar design adorned with multiple small, uniform Thali-shaped charms (traditionally resembling stylized banyan leaves or heart-shaped tokens) linked sequentially along a rigid or flexible main strand.
- The Detailing: Each individual leaf-shaped charm is crowned with small metallic cluster accents (resembling tiny golden beads or mottu) that add texture, dimension, and vintage grace to the choker.
- Aesthetic Appeal: This specific design sits beautifully flat against the collarbone, making it a highly favored ethnic accessory for festive occasions, weddings, and celebration wear like Onam.
