Detail that holds up close and across the room

Ruby's bridal work is dense and intricate: lace bands, mandalas and fine jaali, with figurative and portrait detail for brides who want their story drawn into the design.

Fingertips are fully coated, the traditional finish that frames every hand, and each design is planned around your outfits, your events and the photos you love.

  • Dense lace and jaali work
  • Mandalas and framed panels
  • Figurative and portrait detail

The paste

Natural henna, and jagua for a darker tone

[HENNA_PASTE]

Natural henna stains from orange to a deep maroon brown and never jet black. If a product promises a black stain in minutes, it is not natural henna.
