An extraordinary 100+ years old Royal Marwari Sevra Jodi, preserving the magnificence of Rajasthan’s traditional wedding heritage and old-world ceremonial craftsmanship.
The Sevra holds a special place in traditional Marwari and Rajasthani wedding customs, where such ornate pieces formed an important part of ceremonial attire. This exceptionally rare antique pair belongs to an earlier era when wedding ornaments were created with painstaking handwork, rich textiles and precious metallic embellishment.
Crafted over a deep royal red textile base, this Sevra Jodi is lavishly decorated with real silver work combined with gold-mix golden metallic detailing. The surface is covered with intricate floral motifs, traditional hand embroidery, metallic sequins and elaborate ornamental patterns, creating an unmistakably regal appearance.
One of its most striking features is the abundance of long, shimmering metallic fringe work surrounding the embroidered panels. The aged silver-and-golden surface has developed a beautiful historic character over more than a century, giving the pair a depth and authenticity that modern reproductions simply cannot recreate.
A Legacy of Marwari Wedding Heritage
More than an ornament, this Sevra Jodi represents the grandeur associated with traditional Marwari wedding ceremonies. Pieces of this quality were created to make important family occasions visually magnificent and were often preserved from one generation to another as treasured ceremonial possessions.
The matching pair, elaborate workmanship and extensive use of precious-metal decoration make this example particularly impressive from a collector’s perspective.
Exceptional Craftsmanship
Every section reflects meticulous hand craftsmanship—from the finely embroidered floral patterns and sculptural metallic decoration to the heavy cascading fringe. The combination of real silver, gold-mix golden work and traditional textile artistry creates an exceptionally rich three-dimensional surface.
The natural ageing, patina, old threads and signs of ceremonial use have deliberately been preserved, as they form an integral part of the Sevra’s century-old history and authenticity.

Brass is actually an alloy, not a pure metal. It’s a combination of copper and zinc, and the proportions of these metals determine the colour and properties of the brass. Known for its durability and resistance to corrosion, brass has been used for centuries in everything from musical instruments to household items. Using brass utensils can impart a subtle metallic taste to food, enhancing its flavour profile.
