Details
This pair of ornate jewelry pieces are traditional Indian earring tops (often called jhumka tops or studs) featuring an antique gold-toned finish. The design is classic and highly detailed, characteristic of South Indian Temple Jewelry , known for its use of red and green stones.
-
Style: The pieces feature a bold, semi-circular or oval-shaped upper design with an intricate floral and leaf motif. They appear to be the decorative component that would sit directly on the earlobe, with a dome-shaped bell (jhumka) or drop-style element meant to be attached below.
-
Stones: The jewelry is richly studded with vibrant stones:
-
Ruby-Red/Pink Stones: These round stones are set in clusters to create a prominent floral pattern.
-
Emerald-Green Stone: A large, central green stone provides a striking contrast and acts as the focal point.
-
-
Finish & Detailing: The oxidized/antique gold finish enhances the depth of the metalwork, which includes delicate, dangling leaf-shaped charms along the lower edge, giving the pieces a beautiful sense of movement.
