The gifts/ornaments you received from either side is your property called stridhan. So legally you are not bound to return the ornaments even if your in laws has gifted you in marriage.
Try for mutual divorce first as it will take less time, if husband refuses then file contested divorce suit.
You can file case for maintenance and domestic violence as well if there was instances of torture on you.

List all of your stridhan, and then sort them into categories such as cash, jewelry, property, other valuables etc.
