The document discusses the traditional Indian ornament known as the mangalsutra. The mangalsutra is a necklace that is worn only by married Indian women as it is tied by the groom around the bride's neck during the wedding ritual. It is believed to symbolize the bride and groom's marriage and to wish for the long and healthy life of the husband. Mangalsutras vary regionally across India and have evolved in their designs over time but remain an important part of traditional Indian wedding customs and women's jewelry.

Significance of Mangalsutra Although, it is said that it is worn for the well-being for the husband, the actual reason is somewhat different. In the past this was made of pure gold only and thus was worn by women. Pure gold has several Ayurvedic properties. It avoids skin inflammation, calms the mind, releases stress and has several other benefits on the body. (Source : goo.gl/CcPsgW)
