Burgundy Lantern Drops
The Story
Deep burgundy glass meets bright metallic gold in a rich, jewel-toned palette that catches the light with every movement. The carved, ribbed shapes draw directly from traditional Indian fluted melon beads, a classic motif in South Asian jewelry design. Each drop is carefully stacked, resting a smaller red glass melon bead atop a larger gold-tone metal counterpart, finished with a tiny finial bead at the base. The matched textures create a continuous lantern silhouette that swings freely from simple French hooks.
Styling
Wear these rich drops during the day alongside an ivory linen tunic or a simple chambray shirt. They transition easily to evening gatherings when paired with chocolate silk or tailored neutrals.
