Over the years, the whitish pastels may have made approach for more mature teals, blues and greens; pearls may have been replaced with bolder diamond solitaires; but the lively downward pallu drape remained. And her most treasured one was a navratan necklace of ruby, emerald, and coral, sapphire, pearl, diamond, garnet, cat’s eye and yellow topaz strung on a gold chain – given to her by her Maharaja.
