Black Gold Plated Traditional Beaded Jhumka Earrings

Black beads around a gold-plated bell, with concentric rings of tiny gold dots worked over a darkened ground on the disc above. The contrast is sharper than the other colours in this family, and the dark ground makes the gold granulation stand out rather than blend into it. Black is the practical choice among festive jhumkas, because it is the one colour that does not have to be matched. It sits against a black kurta where a coloured pair would clash, it works with indigo and with denim, and it moves from a daytime function to an evening one without looking wrong at either. If you are buying a single pair from this design, this is the one that will be worn most. Alloy base with gold plating, hand-checked and sent gift-ready. Keep away from water and perfume, and store in the pouch after wear so the beads are not chipped against other jewellery.
