Designer Traditional Antique Gold Chandbali Earrings for Women & Girls

The crescent on this pair is filled with royal blue behind the gold-tone filigree, so the scrollwork reads as gold lines drawn on colour rather than metal on metal. That colour-fill technique is what separates a chandbali like this from a plain one: the pattern gains contrast, and the piece looks considerably more worked than its price suggests. It is large. The crescent spans most of a palm, edged all round with rows of raised metal balls and finished with a fringe of blue beads, and a single bead swings inside the opening. Scale like that decides the outfit rather than accommodating it — leave the neck bare, wear the hair up, and let this be the only thing anyone notices. Blue and gold suits cream, ivory and gold outfits better than it suits another strong colour. Alloy body, hand-checked, sent in a gift pouch. Colour-filled surfaces chip if knocked, so store it in its own pouch and keep it away from water and perfume.
