The Most Beautiful Naths We Spotted On Our Brides This Wedding Season!
Nose ring, Nath or Nathori is an extremely popular accessory amongst Indians. Nath finds its roots steeped in Indian tradition and has a variety of designs, a speciality for every region of India. It finds its origin in the 9th or 10th century and was originally a symbol of marital status for women. It also was a show of wealth at times, based on how precious the gems or the stones on the nath/ nose ring were. Maharashtrian women are seen often flaunting big Nathoris, with special ones for festivals and occasions! Bengali women most often wear septum piercings as a sign of marriage. These look absolutely stunning and now it is an accessory adopted by Indians of other regions as well.
