A broad antique gold arch curves across the top of the earring, a peacock at each end facing inward, with a large round coral stone set at the centre of the curve and a small ruby above it. Below hangs a deeply granulated jhumka finished with a pearl fringe.
Available in 6 colours: Peach, Sky Blue, Grey, Black, Ruby and Green. The colour refers to the large round stone.
The arch is what makes this design unusual. Most temple earrings build downward from the lobe; here a wide curve spans horizontally first, so the earring occupies the space beside the ear before anything hangs below it. The result is considerably more architectural than a standard jhumka.
Antique gold with granulation is also the right treatment for a piece this size. The surface is covered in fine raised dots that scatter light softly rather than producing hard highlights, so a large earring reads as warm rather than brash.
One at each end of the arch, modelled in profile with raised crests and finely worked tails. Peacocks are among the oldest motifs in South Indian temple jewellery, associated with beauty and the coming of the monsoon.
A generous bell, granulated over its whole surface, with a dense fringe of small pearls. It hangs from the centre of the arch, so the weight falls in line with the lobe rather than pulling forward.
Post fitting. These are the heaviest style in this group and are firmly bridal, so plan on wearing them for a ceremony rather than a full day.
Kanjeevaram and heavy silk sarees above all, ideally in mustard, teal, deep red or cream where antique gold stands out. Hair up so the arch and peacocks are visible. A short temple necklace works; anything long will collide.
Temple jewellery was originally made to adorn deities rather than people, which is why the traditional pieces are so generously proportioned. Modern versions keep the motifs and the antique gold finish but reduce the scale to something wearable. A piece like this sits at the larger end of that range — full ceremonial presence, but built hollow and granulated rather than cast solid, which is the compromise that makes it possible to wear at all.
Store them in their own pouch so the pearl fringe is not tangled. Put them on after perfume and hairspray, wipe with a dry soft cloth, and keep them away from water.
