History of Kerala Jewelery
The origin of jewelery in the temple is in the Chola and Pandya dynasties. Previously, the shape of the ornaments in the temples were created by artisans by donating precious metals that were made for temples in southern India. Soon after, the jewelers began to draw inspiration from the gods and the work done on the walls of the Temple and the ceiling. They started making jewelry out of precious metals like Gold. These ornaments are decorated with motifs from the temple. Originally, these ornaments were worn by dancers and worshipers in the Temple in their daily routine. In time, temple adornment became popular not only because it was beautiful but also because it aroused religious sentiment among the people.
