This gold kundan paisley ear cuff follows the long curved shape known in Indian jewellery as the bahubali style: a paisley that hugs the ear from lobe to top, finished with a jhumka at the bottom.
The body of the paisley is gold tone, edged along its outer curve with a continuous row of pearl-like beads that outlines the whole shape. Inside, red and green kundan flowers are set at intervals: a red flower with white petals at the widest point, a green stone near the top, and smaller stones filling the taper.
At the lower end hangs a small pierced gold jhumka, its dome cut with fine openwork and edged with a short pearl fringe. A hook at the top of the curve holds the cuff against the upper ear.
The lower end sits in your normal lobe piercing and the curve follows the outer ear upward, held in place by a small hook at the top. No extra piercing is needed, and the shape is designed to rest against the ear rather than grip it.
All-gold jewellery suits deep, saturated colours, so wear this with a maroon, bottle green or royal blue silk saree, or with a traditional red lehenga. It pairs naturally with gold bangles and a maang tikka.
Hair up is essential for this style; the whole point of the design is the sweep along the ear.
Because the cuff distributes its weight along the ear instead of hanging entirely from the lobe, it is far more comfortable than a long earring of similar size. The jhumka at the bottom is small, so it adds movement without adding pull.
Put the cuff on after your hair is styled, since hair spray dulls both the gold and the pearls. Keep it away from water and perfume, wipe it with a soft dry cloth, and store it flat in a box so the long curve keeps its shape.
Bahubali-style ear cuffs became popular through films and bridal photography, and demand has stayed well ahead of supply ever since. This one is made in small batches, so availability changes week to week.
