Vintage Newari Style Faceted Emerald and Ruby 24 KG Vermeil on Sterling Mandala Earrings
$125.00
These beautiful earrings are made in traditional Newari style craftsmanship dating back to the time of the Kingdom of Lalitpur [Patan]Nepal.
Executed in 24KG Vermeil on 925 Sterling Silver they are set with genuine faceted Emeralds and Rubies which form a sacred Mandala pattern.
Delicate filigree work of twisted and soldered wires surrounds each stone.
The details of the Emeralds set in the ear wires in this pair are simply exquisite.
We fell in love with this unique style when we first came to Boudhanath / Kathmandu where I discovered it in one of the shops close to the Huge Tibetan Buddhist Stupa, famous pilgrimage site visited by Tibetan Buddhists from all over the world.
We found out that it is a "dying skill" since it is so work-involved that the artisans skilled in it just don't make a good enough hour wage in Nepal and give up their traditional livelihood to become workers in the jewelry industry in Malaysia instead.
So we are happy to be able to offer you these little jewels as a special keepsake to be treasured.
Please note that the stones are hand-cut and polished and thus not totally even which adds to the uniqueness of the pieces.
A beautifully matching Prayer Box pendant is also available in our shop / see listing link below
