Classic Indian Kundan Pearl Earrings

These jhumka earrings come in an antique gold-tone finish and are made for festive dressing. The top is a round stud with a small peacock at its centre, ringed by sparkling white stones set in a petal pattern.

Below the stud hangs a richly worked dome. Its carved gold surface is dotted with ruby-red stones, a single green drop-shaped stone at the front and clear stones along the crown. A scrolled link joins the stud to the dome, so the earrings sit with a graceful drop.

The dome ends in a row of soft cream pearl drops that sway as you move and add a gentle contrast to the warm gold. The matte, aged look of the metal keeps the design traditional rather than shiny.

Wear them with a silk or cotton saree for weddings, pujas and festivals, or with a lehenga or salwar suit for family celebrations. They look best with hair tied back or pinned up, so the full jhumka shows.
