Quick answer: A necklace set under Rs 1500 is usually a choker with matching earrings and sometimes a maang tikka, in plated brass or alloy. Choose by neckline and weight: a 10 to 12 cm choker suits high and boat necks, while a lighter set under 30 g is easier for a long function. Check the exact price on each page.

A good set takes the guesswork out of dressing for a function because everything matches. Our necklace sets under Rs 1500 collection has over 60 sets, and most are choker style. This guide explains how to choose between them and how to wear the set well.
What is usually included in a necklace set at this budget?
A necklace and a pair of earrings, and in many designs a maang tikka as well. The product page lists what is in the box, for example 1 necklace, 1 pair of earrings and 1 maang tikka. That is the quickest way to compare value between two sets. For a wider look, visit the main necklace sets collection.
Which set is lightest for a long function?
A square choker with ruby-colour kundan-look stones and small golden balls in gold-plated alloy. The necklace measures 20 x 1.5 cm, the set comes with earrings, and it is listed at 16.8 g. Another light option is the round and square gold-plated brass choker with a maang tikka, listed at 25.4 g, with a 10 x 1 cm necklace. Both are comfortable through a long evening.
Is an antique gold set better than a bright gold one?
Antique gold gives a deeper, softer look that suits green, wine, navy and cream, while bright gold plating looks cleaner against pastel and white. The round and square antique gold brass choker set has a 12 x 1.3 cm necklace, 2.5 x 2 cm earrings and an 11 cm maang tikka, and weighs 40.2 g. Read our guide to choker set materials to compare kundan, pearl-look and American diamond.
Which neckline works with a choker set?
Short chokers of about 10 to 12 cm sit close to the neck, so pair them with a boat neck, a high collar or a square-cut blouse. A deep V neckline looks better with a longer necklace. Our necklace for blouse neckline guide explains each pairing, and the necklace length guide explains lengths.
Choker set or necklace set: which one do I need?
If you want something that sits at the base of the neck and looks dressy, a choker set is right. If you prefer a longer, softer drop, choose a necklace set. Our comparison of a choker set vs necklace set goes through both, and the choker sets under Rs 1000 collection is a good start for tighter budgets.
How do I wear the maang tikka that comes with the set?
Part your hair in the centre, place the tikka so the pendant rests on the forehead just below the hairline, and fix the hook securely under a section of hair. A tikka of about 10 to 11 cm, like the ones listed with these sets, sits in a natural line down the forehead. If you prefer not to wear it, the earrings and necklace still work as a pair. Our maang tikka styles guide shows how to pin it.
Which occasions suit a necklace set?
Weddings, receptions, sangeet, festival evenings and family functions. A lighter set also works for a daytime puja with a simple saree. Use the occasion jewellery hub to start from the event, and the jewellery by outfit hub if you already know what you will wear.
What if my budget is higher?
Try the choker sets under Rs 2000 or the bridal sets under Rs 3000 collections for heavier designs. Use the jewellery by budget hub to compare price bands side by side. Do not stretch to the heaviest set if you will wear it only once.
How do I check a set before I order?
Compare three lines on the product page: the in-the-box list, the measurements of each piece and the total weight. Then look at the material line, which here is gold plated or antique gold plated brass or alloy. If the photos do not show how the set sits on the neck, ask us on WhatsApp for an extra picture. This takes two minutes and avoids most disappointments with sets bought online.
How do I care for a plated necklace set?
Wipe the pieces with a soft cloth after wearing, put the set on after perfume and hairspray, and store the necklace, earrings and tikka in separate pouches so the stones do not scratch each other. Our gold-plated care guide explains the basics.
