Wedding Jewellery Guide — Bihar Brides in Roh
Traditional bridal pieces, regional names, and cultural significance
Bihari and Mithila bridal jewellery has heavy Madhubani influence — fish, peacock and lotus motifs dominate. The Hansuli neck ring and Sikha forehead piece are uniquely Bihari, distinct from neighbouring UP and Bengal.
Sikha
A rigid forehead band worn across the parting, with a central pendant — almost exclusively Bihari/Mithila.
Hansuli
A solid, rigid neck ring (literally "of the collarbone") rather than a flexible chain. A core piece in tribal and rural Bihari weddings.
Kardhani
A waist chain — usually plainer than its Telugu Vaddanam counterpart.
Tikuli
A round forehead disc, similar to the Bengali Tikli but with Madhubani-style etchings.
Bichhua
Heavy toe rings, often with bells — worn after the wedding ceremony.
Champakali
A choker shaped like champa flower buds — a Mithila signature piece.
How to Choose a Trustworthy Jeweller in Roh
Three checks before walking into any showroom
Verify BIS Hallmark Licence
Every legitimate jeweller in Roh selling gold must hold an active BIS hallmarking licence (BIS-HUID). Confirm before purchase:
- →Ask for the BIS licence number — should match the bill
- →Look for the BIS triangle logo + HUID on every piece
- →Cross-check on the BIS Care app — fake licences will fail validation
Compare Making Charges
Making charges are the biggest hidden variable. Across Bihar, expect 11–18% — a 5% gap on a ₹50,000 piece is ₹2,500. Get quotes from at least 3 jewellers and ask:
- →Is making charge a fixed % or per-gram rate?
- →Different rate for handcrafted vs machine-made?
- →Any wastage charge added on top? (deal-breaker if yes)
- →Are stones billed by weight or per-piece?
Check Buy-Back & Exchange Policy
Most gold purchases will eventually be exchanged or sold back. Roh jewellers vary widely on terms — read the fine print before buying:
- →Buy-back rate: today's gold rate, or yesterday's?
- →Wastage deduction on buy-back? (usually 2–8%)
- →Exchange terms — full value of old gold, or partial?
- →Is the policy in writing on your bill or just verbal?
Verbal commitments aren't legally binding — insist on written terms.

Buyer's Toolkit — Roh
Three checklists to bring with you when shopping
Jeweller Verification
Before walking into any showroom in Roh, run these three online checks:
- ✓Search for their BIS licence number on the BIS portal
- ✓Look up their GST registration number on the GST portal
- ✓Read Google Maps reviews — focus on the 1- and 2-star ones
- ✓Check shop's years in operation from old reviews / Google listing
- ✓Confirm physical address matches their bill / signage
Any jeweller refusing to share these details is a red flag — move on.
Pre-Purchase Checklist
Before paying at any Roh jeweller, get all of these in writing on the bill:
- ✓Net gold weight (grams) — separate from stones / pearls
- ✓Today's gold rate per gram for the purity (22K / 18K)
- ✓Making charges as % (typical 11–18% in Bihar)
- ✓GST: 3% on gold + 5% on making charges
- ✓HUID number printed — match it with the jewellery stamp
- ✓Buy-back / exchange terms in writing
Post-Purchase HUID Check
After buying gold from a Roh jeweller, verify the HUID independently:
- Download BIS Care (free, Play Store / App Store)
- Open the app, tap "Verify HUID"
- Enter the 6-digit code stamped on your jewellery
- Confirm jeweller name + purity + hallmarking date match the bill
Any mismatch = grounds for refund. Report fake hallmarks to BIS at 1800-11-4000 or via the BIS Care app's complaint section.
