"Have you ever wondered how the Garudas we see in art are related to jewelry? The origins of the Garudas can be traced back to the Dvaravati period, where they were found in stucco and ancient pagodas such as those in Nakhon Pathom and Lopburi. Although they were not yet directly related to jewelry, simple patterns that conveyed the power of nature began to appear.
During the Sukhothai period, more elaborate Garuda images began to be used in mural paintings and decorative patterns in temples, especially in areas such as Buddha statues and throne bases, which inspired later ornamental designs such as the carving of Garuda patterns on silver or gold plates.
When entering the Ayutthaya period, which was the era when Garuda was more clearly associated with jewelry, Garuda often appeared in Garuda rings or Garuda pendants that were used as sacred amulets to protect the wearer. These ornaments were often made of gold or silver and decorated with intricate patterns, reflecting the belief that linked Garuda with power and auspiciousness.
Later in the Rattanakosin period, the Garuda image was used to create a variety of ornaments, from the Garuda coins given to honorable people to Garuda rings and diamond-studded brooches, reflecting the elegance and prosperity of the wearer.
Garuda is not only a symbol of sacredness in art, but has also become an important inspiration for creating beautiful and spiritually valuable ornaments from ancient times to the present.
