Frequently Asked Questions
What is a kaleera and what does it symbolise?
A kaleera is an ornamental hanging accessory traditionally tied to a bride's bangles by her sisters and friends before the wedding. It symbolises blessings, prosperity, happiness, and good wishes for the bride's new journey into married life.
How do I choose the right kaleera size?
Choose a kaleera size that matches the width of your bangles or chooda. Vaidaan's designs are available in multiple sizes, typically ranging from 2.2 to 2.8 or S-M to XL-XXL, depending on the style, for a secure and comfortable fit.
Can kaleeras be personalised?
Yes. Several of Vaidaan's designer kaleeras can be personalised with letter charms, allowing brides to add initials or other meaningful details for a unique and memorable touch.
Are kaleeras only meant for brides?
Traditionally, kaleeras are worn by brides, but lighter and smaller styles are also popular with bridesmaids and close family members who want to participate in the wedding celebrations with coordinated accessories.
Which kaleera style suits a haldi versus a wedding-day look?
Shell kaleeras from Vaidaan's Sankhah collection are perfect for haldi and mehndi ceremonies, while mirror-work kaleeras from the Jhalak collection beautifully complement wedding-day and reception outfits.
Do kaleeras come in pairs?
Yes. Vaidaan's kaleeras are sold as a pair, with one kaleera for each wrist, ready to be tied onto your bangles or chooda before the wedding ceremony.
