Gilgiti Traditional Jewelry – A Cultural Treasure
Gilgiti traditional jewelry reflects the rich cultural heritage and identity of the Gilgit-Baltistan region in northern Pakistan. Handcrafted by skilled artisans, these pieces are often made from silver and adorned with semi-precious stones like turquoise, agate, and coral, sourced from the surrounding mountains. Common items include chunky necklaces, nose pins (known as bulak), headpieces, earrings, and intricately designed bracelets. Each piece carries symbolic meaning, often passed down through generations as heirlooms. The designs are influenced by the diverse ethnic groups in the region, blending Tibetan, Central Asian, and South Asian styles, making Gilgiti jewelry a unique representation of its mountainous homeland.
