These Hand Made Amethyst Dangle Earrings from Indonesia 'Glistening Buddha's Curls' by Zayd Makarim are a beautiful and meaningful gift. The dangle earrings feature over five carats of stunning purple amethyst stones, each framed by a handcrafted sterling silver spiral motif. Inspired by the love he shares with his wife, Makarim crafts each piece with the utmost care. The spirals refer to Buddha's tightly-curled hair, adding a layer of deep cultural symbolism and personal meaning.
Zayd Makarim was born in West Java in 1968 and has been drawn to art since childhood, beginning with painting and sculpture before discovering jewelry as his true medium. His path eventually led him to Bali, a place he had long dreamed of visiting, where he worked for a renowned jewelry designer and learned the intricacies of silver and design. The turning point came when he created a pair of earrings as a birthday gift for his wife. Their beauty surprised even him, and the admiration of her friends encouraged him to take his passion seriously. Today, Zayd creates jewelry that blends his artistic sensibility with inspiration drawn from architecture, culture, and the natural world. His wife continues to be a central source of inspiration, shaping his vision of beauty and artistry. Through each piece, Zayd expresses both his personal journey and the wider stories of the world around him.
Handcrafted in 925 sterling silver and amethyst, these earrings measure 1.4 inches L x 0.4 inches W x 0.3 inches D. They feature a combination finish and post earring backs.
