These Mughal Melody drop earrings by Independent Artisans are a piece of lavish elegance and intricate artistry. The rhodium-plated sterling silver earrings feature legendary jali openwork in the shape of leafy vines, a testament to a craft that has been refined over two decades. The design gracefully holds an enhanced onyx droplet, a gem of protection and mystique.

They are a statement of sophisticated style and artisanal heritage.
From the age of 17, this Indian artisan has been immersed in the world of handicrafts, beginning with sandalwood and brass before finding his true calling in jewelry. Inspired by the natural world, his designs often feature organic motifs that blend artistry with elegance. A career highlight came in 1995, when the Sultan of Brunei commissioned his work, a project that brought together a team of artisans in a two-month collaboration that remains unforgettable. In 2002, he joined Novica, an experience he credits with transforming his craft from simple jewelry into true art. Over two decades, he has grown from working with a single helper to leading a small team of artisans, instilling in them the importance of precision and uncompromising quality. Today, his designs reflect a balance between timeless style and evolving fashion, while his workshop provides opportunity and livelihood for the families who bring each creation to life.
These post earrings are crafted from rhodium-plated 925 sterling silver and enhanced onyx with a high-polish finish. They measure 1.6 inches long by 0.4 inches wide by 0.3 inches deep and weigh 0.18 ounces.
