The Gandaberunda is a two-headed mythological bird believed to possess immense magical strength. It was the emblem of the erstwhile Kingdom of Mysore under the Wodeyar kings, and after India attained independence, it was retained by Mysore state as its emblem. That state was enlarged in 1956 and renamed Karnataka in 1973, and the Gandabherunda continues to be the official state emblem of Karnataka. It is used as the official emblem of the Karnataka state government because it is a symbol of strength. It is believed to be capable of fighting the forces of destruction. It appears as an intricately carved sculpture motif in Hindu temples.

Rakkodi is an ornament worn on the hair or a jooda around which flowers are arranged. Typically made in kemp stones it is worn by brides or dancers & now it is a contemporary fashion accessory too.
