This maang tikka curation highlights potta stones in traditional forms, bringing together 10+ designs from ₹630. Set on a brass base with gold polish, the edit leans into South-inspired silhouettes with crescent pendants, floral and deity motifs, and gentle bead or pearl drops. Round and pear potta stones in rich colours catch the light along the hairline and brow. If you’re comparing sizes and shapes across styles, browse our full selection in our maang tikka collection.

The styles in this edit

Chandbali Classics: Crescent silhouettes form the focal pendant, edged with coloured potta stones arranged in round and pear settings. Many pieces finish with bead or pearl drops that frame the forehead cleanly under the gold-polish glow.

Floral Motifs: Petal patterns take centre stage in traditional layouts. Round stones cluster to build the bloom, with pear accents tapering the outline and soft drops adding movement at the end.

Lakshmi Motifs: Pieces featuring the goddess Lakshmi sit within arched frames, with coloured potta stones accenting the halo and base. For a coordinated temple look, you can explore complementary options in our Temple Maang Tikkas.

Peacock Inspirations: Curved bodies and feather tracings create the peacock shape, punctuated by round stones and a pear-stone plume. Subtle drops along the lower edge complete the profile.

How and when to wear them

For wedding rituals and festive pujas, pair a Lakshmi or floral pendant with a silk saree; the gold polish balances zari borders and traditional weaves. Chandbali and peacock styles add drama to a lehenga or anarkali for sangeet and reception nights, especially when the coloured stones echo the outfit’s accents.

For day events or college celebrations, a slim mangtika with fewer drops keeps the look neat with a kurta set or Indo-western co-ords. Brides who want a fuller centrepiece can compare sizes and motifs in our Bridal Maang Tikkas. Match bindi and bangles to the stone colours for a cohesive finish.

Choosing the right piece and caring for it

Pick a maang tikka design with a pendant width that suits your forehead height—the broader crescents suit wide hair partings, while compact florals sit well on smaller frames. Let the stone colours guide your choice; mirror the border or dupatta tones for balance, or choose a contrast shade if your outfit is plain. If you plan to wear a heavy necklace, keep the tikka moderately sized so the face stays uncluttered.

Care is simple: keep the brass, gold polish and potta stones away from water, perfume and humidity. After use, wipe gently with a soft dry cloth, then store the piece separately in its pouch so the drops don’t tangle or rub against other jewellery.
