Gilded Lantern Drops

The Story

Bright gold catches the light against flashes of vivid turquoise blue in these articulated drops. The silhouette draws directly from vintage Indian jewelry styles, specifically the classic Rajasthani fluted melon bead. A textured, domed base set with tiny turquoise-toned stone cabochons anchors the design, suspending the hollow fluted drop from a simple post closure to allow for gentle movement.

Styling

Pair these with a crisp cotton kurta or a chambray shirt for a relaxed daytime look. They transition easily to gallery openings and evening gatherings when worn alongside chocolate silk or tailored neutrals.
