Top and Drop with Tanzanite, Ruby
Each of these top and drop earrings are composed of a circular 18 carat Gold Ear Stud in the kundankāri technique. The central embedded diamond has gentle facets around its edges. Studded around it are foil-set rubies in a gently foliated setting, as too the outer perimeter of unfaceted diamond petals.
Dangling from delicate corded gold wire is a Tanzanite carbuncle with rubies and delicate gold finials on either end.
The earrings are a gentle nod to the 19th century Parisian Day and Night Earrings (where the pendent stone could be attached in the evenings). The closed kundan technique is typical to India, as too the fashion of embedding unfaceted stones in jewels.
