This oxidised teardrop stone necklace set is the plainest design in this range and, for a lot of people, the most wearable. There is no scrollwork, no fringe and no motif: just three large teardrop cabochons grouped into a cluster, hung from a double strand of oxidised silver beads, with matching teardrop studs to go with them. The set photographed carries deep amethyst stones, and the design comes in five colours. It reads as much like contemporary jewellery as traditional, which is why it crosses into everyday clothing so easily.
The chain is a double strand of small round oxidised beads, strung close and running parallel, which gives the necklace enough body to sit as a rope rather than a thin line. At the front the two strands gather into the pendant, where three teardrop stones are arranged in an offset cluster, two above and one below, each tilted at a slightly different angle so the group does not read as rigid. Each stone is a large smooth cabochon, domed and translucent, with a dark core showing through the colour, and each is held in a plain silver bezel with a rope edge. The oxidised finish keeps those bezels dark, which frames the colour instead of competing with it. The earrings use the same teardrop stone and bezel as a single stud, sized to be worn every day.
This is the set to reach for when you want one piece of colour and nothing else. It works over a plain white or black shirt, a plain kurta, a linen dress, or a cotton saree with a simple blouse. Because the stones are large and smooth, a busy print underneath will fight them, so keep the fabric plain. The studs are discreet enough to wear on their own to work, which makes the set useful well beyond the occasions the necklace suits.
Office and everyday wear, college, travel, casual lunches and dinners, gifting to someone who prefers understated jewellery, and as a first oxidised piece for anyone who finds traditional tribal designs too ornate.
The cabochons are large and sit proud of their bezels, so avoid knocking the pendant against hard surfaces. Keep the set away from water, perfume, hair spray and sanitiser, wipe the metal with a dry soft cloth after wearing, and store the necklace flat with the studs kept separately.
