As Radhika Merchant, wife of Anant Ambani, steps into the spotlight, her jewellery does more than dazzle — it narrates a legacy. From uncut diamonds to temple-inspired motifs, each piece reflects India’s finest craftsmanship, woven into modern bridal elegance.
For the wedding ceremony, Radhika donned a family heirloom necklace featuring uncut diamonds (polki) and Zambian emeralds. This piece had previously been worn by her mother and sister, symbolising close family ties.
Complementing the heirloom piece, Radhika wore a five-strand diamond necklace with a central emerald pendant, designed by Mumbai-based jeweler Nisha Mehta. The design intricately matched her mother’s antique choker.
During the Garba night, Radhika showcased a polki jadau necklace set from Jaipur Jewels, featuring five ‘paan’-shaped pendants adorned with Zambian emerald drops, weighing approximately 407.14 grams.
At the sangeet, Radhika wore an ivory lehenga adorned with 25,000 Swarovski crystals, paired with a choker necklace, a heart-shaped ring, massive kadhas, and earrings featuring rubies and diamonds.
During the pre-wedding, Radhika adorned custom-made opal and diamond necklaces and earrings designed by Lorraine Schwartz, renowned for her creations for celebrities like Beyoncé and Kim Kardashian.
The women's of the Ambani family don’t just wear jewellery — they wear history. From Radhika to Shloka and Nita, each dazzle in rare heirlooms. Nita Ambani’s Rs 200 crore Mughal-era bajuband also stole the show at Miss World 2024.
Shloka Mehta, the Ambanis’ eldest daughter-in-law, stunned on her wedding day with the Mouawad L’Incomparable necklace, a gift from the family. Featuring a 407.48-carat yellow diamond, this ₹451 crore necklace is one of the rarest and most valuable jewelry pieces ever created.
