Jewellery - Hand Painted Earrings - Krishna

A set of exquisite 92.5 silver and peridot hand painted earrings depicting Krishna playing the flute. In Hinduism, Krishna signifies divine love and is considered a hero, warrior, teacher and philosopher.

The ancient tradition of miniature painting can be traced back to manuscripts recorded on narrow leaves in the the 9th or 10th century. The art began its evolution through the veins of the Imperial Court during the Mughal Empire, and was later carried forth by Rajputs who desired to be anonymous as painters. Throughout time, miniatures have been influenced by Indian literature and told the stories of texts, of the culture and have also been created as individual paintings.

This precious piece has a history and a story to tell. We like to think of it as adornment that whispers in its own voice.
