A pair of unusually long earrings: a straight chain of pink CZ stones and white pearls running almost to the shoulder, ending in a small jhumka with a pearl rim. Each earring is one continuous line rather than a top with a drop.
Because the whole length is strung as a single column of alternating stones and pearls, the earring hangs perfectly straight instead of swinging sideways, which is what keeps a piece this long wearable.
Hair must be tied back or pinned on one side — the whole point of this length is lost under open hair. Keep the neck bare or wear a very close choker.
Sangeet, mehendi, receptions and photographs where you want length rather than width.
Decide before the function how you will support the weight: a thin chain hooked over the ear, a hair pin through the top loop, or nothing at all for a short event. Hang them straight in storage so the chains do not kink, since a kink in a strung chain does not straighten out.
Earrings of this length are normally supported by a chain hooked over the ear, because the lobe alone cannot comfortably carry the weight all evening. It is worth checking on arrival whether you want to add a support chain; a simple hair pin through the top loop also works and is what many people do.
Length is the one thing that photographs differently from how it looks in a mirror. In profile these fill the space between the jaw and the shoulder, which is why they are a common choice for sangeet pictures and a poor one for a crowded family lunch.
Ear chains of this length are called kaan chains in several regions, and they were traditionally worn precisely because they moved — the whole point is the line of light running down from the ear as you turn. That is also why they photograph far better in profile than face on.
A bold gift for someone who likes statement jewellery and already owns the usual jhumkas. More in AD earrings.
This is brass with a gold-tone plating rather than solid gold, which keeps the price where it is and the weight low enough to wear comfortably. Plating is a surface rather than a bulk property, so how long it lasts depends almost entirely on what it meets — perfume, hairspray and sweat all shorten it, while a dry cloth after wearing and a closed pouch between wearings extend it considerably.
Put this on after perfume, hairspray and hand cream, and take it off before washing, swimming or sleeping. Wipe with a dry soft cloth and use a dry soft brush around the stone settings and between any pearls, where a cloth cannot reach. Store it in a zip-lock pouch — the single most effective thing for a plated piece, because it keeps humid air off the metal. Never use silver polish, dip cleaners or an ultrasonic cleaner.
