Sakha pola, cut from real conch shell
Original, handmade sakha pola - the white conch shell bangles and red pola a Bengali bride puts on at her wedding and wears through married life.
What Sakha Bazar makes
- Sakha - also written shakha. Bangles cut and polished by hand from a single piece of genuine conch shell, never plastic or resin.
- Pola - the red bangles worn beside the sakha, plain or with gold work, to pair with any design.
- Bridal sakha pola sets - matched pairs for the wedding morning, chosen for the bride.
- Shankh - also written sankh. Conch shells for puja and for blowing, chosen by hand.
Cut to your size, delivered across India
A sakha has to slide over the knuckles and still sit close on the wrist. Every pair is cut to the size you give us - 2-4, 2-6, 2-7, 2-8 or your own measurement - and sent, packed against breakage, anywhere in India.
