These Red and Gold Jhumki Ceramic Parasol Dangle Post Earrings 'Magical Red' by Independent Artisans are a pair of parasol-shaped Indian jhumki earrings that dazzle a room. Created by Deepti Lav, the bases are molded from double-fired terracotta clay and then hand-painted in vibrant hues of gold and red before being mounted on sterling silver posts. These earrings blend tradition with modern design and are a testament to the artist's mission to empower women through their craft.
Encouraged by her husband to pursue her own passion, this artisan discovered the art of terracotta jewelry and was captivated by its transformation of simple riverbed clay into adornment. What began as self-study soon grew into formal training and eventually the establishment of her own workshop. She leads a team of women artisans whose resilience and dedication inspire her daily. Together, they create designs that merge traditional terracotta craft with modern sensibilities, ensuring both cultural continuity and contemporary appeal. Beyond jewelry, her mission is to empower women in rural communities by offering them sustainable livelihoods and opportunities to bridge the gap between traditional skills and modern markets. Each terracotta piece reflects patience, creativity, and solidarity, carrying forward not only beauty but also the confidence and dignity of the women who craft it.
Handcrafted from ceramic and copper with .925 sterling silver posts, these earrings measure 1.6 inches L x 0.8 inches W x 0.8 inches D and have a high-polish finish.
