Every piece of real flower jewelry at Gullrung carries a name, and our Urdu jewelry names draw on Persian words found in classical poetry and the Urdu poetic tradition. Our name itself joins gul (flower) and rang (colour), and that is exactly what we try to preserve: flowers and colour, kept forever in resin. Here are the stories behind some of our favourite names.
Urdu Jewelry Names: A Few Words to Know
Most names follow the Persian izafat pattern: two words linked by “-e-“, which means “of”. So Gul-e-Aabi reads as “flower of blue”, or simply “the blue flower”. Once you know a handful of words, the names start to read like tiny poems:
- Gul: flower
- Zar: gold
- Dur / Durr: pearl
- Mah: moon
- Bahaar: spring
- Shafaq: twilight, the glow of dusk
- Naghma: melody, song
- Siah / Siyah: black
- Neelam: sapphire
- Nayab: rare
- Neel: blue, indigo
- Shab: night
- Nazuk: delicate
- Gulshan: garden
- Khayaal: thought, imagination
- Mehek: fragrance
- Raaz: secret
