Best Traditional Pieces to Buy for Good Luck
In the Maharashtrian calendar, Akshaya Tritiya (falling on Sunday, April 19, 2026) is one of the most auspicious Sade Teen Muhurtas. The word “Akshaya” means “eternal” or “never diminishing,” and it is believed that any investment made on this day—especially in 22kt gold—will bring endless prosperity and good fortune to the household.
At Waman Hari Pethe Sons, we celebrate this spirit of abundance with our signature traditional Marathi jewellery. Whether you are looking for a small token of luck or a significant family heirloom, here are five best traditional pieces to buy this Akshaya Tritiya.
1. Gold Vedhani and Coins for Prosperity
For many families, Akshaya Tritiya is synonymous with the purchase of a Gold Vedhani (a simple gold ring) or a BIS-hallmarked gold coin. These are considered the purest forms of investment and are often embossed with the images of Goddess Lakshmi or Lord Ganesha to invite divine blessings. At Waman Hari Pethe Sons, our gold coins are available in various denominations, making them the perfect entry-point for a lucky “eternal” investment.
2. The Thushi: A Choker of Abundance
The Thushi necklace is a classic choice for Akshaya Tritiya. Crafted with gold beads packed closely together, it symbolizes a “harvest of wealth.” Because it is a foundational piece of traditional gold jewellery, buying a Thushi on this day is believed to ensure that your jewelry collection only grows larger over time. Its timeless appeal makes it a versatile piece that bridges the gap between old-world royalty and modern elegance.
3. Auspicious Mangalsutras for Marital Bliss
Many couples choose the “Swayam Siddha Muhurat” of Akshaya Tritiya to buy a new long mangalsutra or a diamond-studded mangalsutra. Since gold bought on this day is said to never diminish, upgrading your mangalsutra is seen as a way to strengthen the eternal bond of marriage. Our handcrafted gold jewellery designs offer the perfect blend of sacred symbolism and high-definition artistry for the modern woman.
4. Bangle Sets: Patlya and Bangadi
If you are looking to invest in substantial heritage jewellery, Akshaya Tritiya is the ideal time to purchase Patlya (flat gold bangles) or Tode. These traditional bangles are not just ornaments but are considered “Laxmi” for the home. Wearing new gold bangles blessed on this day is a tradition that many Maharashtrian women follow to bring positive energy and “Gharachi Shobha” (the grace of the home) to their families.
5. Temple-Inspired Gold Pendant Sets
Buying jewellery featuring motifs of nature or deities is a popular trend for Akshaya Tritiya 2026. A gold pendant set featuring a lotus or peacock motif invokes the blessings of Goddess Lakshmi. These pieces are ideal for those who want a blend of spiritual significance and daily-wear utility. Choosing certified gold jewellery ensures that your purchase for good luck also serves as a secure financial asset for the future.
