What is Pochi?

Pochi is a Rajasthani wrist ornament: several rows of small beads or pearls strung between two enamelled gold terminals and drawn tight with a cord. It is worn in pairs and sits between a bangle and a bracelet in weight. The terminals carry the colour and the enamel work; the strung rows give the piece its movement.
