These Gold-Accented Jade Macrame Earrings 'Heaven Can Wait' by Independent Artisans are a stunning and ethereal accessory. Designed by Thai artisan Kanjana Janphiratikul, these macrame dangle earrings are centered with green jade gemstones. The earrings are hand-knotted with waxed polyester cord and accented with shimmering brass beads and 18k gold-plated sterling silver hooks. The piece reflects Kanjana's perseverance and her belief in jewelry as a source of joy and opportunity, as she works to empower local women and strengthen her community.
Born in Phrae, northern Thailand, Kanjana Janphiratikul’s journey as an artisan began with resilience and determination. After working in Bangkok as a housekeeper, she moved to Chiang Mai in search of new opportunities, where a chance encounter with a jeweler introduced her to the art of threading gemstones. Guided by his generosity and her own persistence, she mastered the craft, supplementing her learning with countless hours of self-study through books and online tutorials. Today, Kanjana creates woven jewelry combining waxed cord with carefully selected gemstones, blending durability with striking color and texture. Working from a small home studio, she employs two assistants and trains local women, offering them income and skills that strengthen her community. Married with two sons, she balances family life with her dream of one day opening a larger workshop and gallery. Each piece she makes reflects her perseverance, her gratitude, and her belief in jewelry as a source of joy and opportunity.
Handcrafted in Thailand from jade, waxed polyester cord, brass, and 18k gold-plated .925 sterling silver, these hook earrings have a high polish finish. They measure 3.5 inches long by 1.4 inches wide. The stone's color may vary slightly.
