How Kundan Jewellery is Evolving in 2025: A Look at Modern Fusion Styles

A Guide by Danish Jewellers

Kundan jewellery has always been synonymous with timeless beauty and royal elegance—but in 2025, it’s rewriting its story. Once reserved for traditional weddings and heirloom collections, Kundan jewellery is now making waves in modern fashion through bold fusions and contemporary reinterpretations.

At Danish Jewellers, we’re proud to be at the forefront of this evolution, combining centuries-old craftsmanship with cutting-edge design. Let’s take a look at how Kundan is transforming in 2025—and why modern shoppers are falling in love with it all over again.


What is Kundan Jewellery?

Before we dive into the trends, here’s a quick refresher. Kundan jewellery is one of the oldest forms of Indian jewellery, involving the delicate setting of polished gemstones into a base of pure gold or silver foil. It’s best known for its intricate craftsmanship and luxurious, regal look.

But in 2025, Kundan isn’t just a classic—it's cultural couture with a contemporary twist.


The Rise of Modern Fusion Kundan: What’s New?

Fashion-forward consumers today are blending heritage with high-style, and Kundan jewellery is evolving to meet that demand. Here’s how:

1. Minimalist Kundan Designs

Gone are the days when Kundan meant heavy bridal sets only. 2025 is seeing a boom in minimalist Kundan pieces—think delicate chokers, sleek bracelets, and subtle drop earrings that pair effortlessly with both Indian and Western wear.

Trend alert: Layered Kundan necklaces with clean lines and negative space are becoming everyday statement pieces.

2. Kundan Meets Contemporary Metals

At Danish Jewellers, we’re experimenting with unique metal combinations. From rose gold settings to oxidized silver bases, these blends give a fresh, edgy feel to traditional Kundan.

Fusion tip: Look out for Kundan on geometric silver cuffs or rose gold ear jackets—perfect for Indo-western fusion outfits.

3. Gemstone Play and Color Pop

While classic Kundan sticks to white or red stones, the 2025 palette is vibrant and unexpected. Designers are using pastel gemstones, bold enamels, and multicolour layouts to appeal to a younger, fashion-conscious crowd.

Hot in 2025: Emerald green and soft lavender Kundan earrings for brunches, parties, and destination weddings.

4. Unisex Kundan Jewellery

Kundan is no longer just for brides. The shift toward gender-neutral jewellery is making Kundan accessible to men and non-binary wearers, too. Think brooches, layered malas, and Kundan cufflinks with a bold twist.

Danish Pick: Our Kundan collar brooches and layered lapel chains are a favourite among modern grooms.

5. Custom and Convertible Pieces

Why choose one style when you can have three? Convertible Kundan jewellery is a rising trend in 2025—pieces that can be worn in multiple ways, like chokers that double as bracelets or pendants that become maang tikkas.

This modular design trend is perfect for sustainability-minded shoppers and style chameleons alike.


Why Kundan Fusion is the Future

With Gen Z and Millennials leading the charge toward individualism, versatility, and sustainability, fusion Kundan meets their values:

  • Style without compromise

  • Cultural roots with modern relevance

  • Wearability across occasions

  • Greater scope for personalization

At Danish Jewellers, every Kundan piece is a celebration of heritage and innovation. Our designers work with skilled artisans to create collections that are both timeless and trendsetting.
