Description

Andaal Kondai is a traditional hair ornament inspired by the hairstyle of Goddess Andal, a revered figure in Tamil culture. The design reflects the iconic bun style depicted in temple sculptures and devotional art. Often used in classical dance and bridal styling, it holds deep cultural and spiritual significance, especially in South Indian rituals and festivals.

Worn at the center of the hair bun, the Andaal Kondai is usually crafted in imitation or temple jewellery style. It is commonly paired with pieces like rakodi, surya-chandra clips, and jadai alankarams. This ornament is a symbol of devotion and is still used in modern ceremonial looks.
