Terracotta Stud Earrings — Hand-Painted Folk Art Clay Studs in Black & Red

Bold, graphic, and entirely handmade — these terracotta stud earrings carry a folk art energy that is immediately visible from across a room. Each circular stud features a hand-painted composition in black, red, and white, with yellow dot accents — a swirling yin-yang-like division of the circle into contrasting sections, each filled with hand-painted teardrop and dot motifs drawn from India's folk art traditions.

The composition on each pair is mirror-imaged: what is black on one earring is red on the other, creating a bold, complementary pairing that is dynamic and visually striking without being matched in the conventional sense. This is not an accident — it is a deliberate design choice by the artisan, rooted in the Indian folk art tradition of using bold colour contrasts to create visual energy.

The circular form sits flat against the earlobe — sturdy, comfortable, and light enough for all-day wear. Because every pair is hand-painted, no two are exactly identical. The yellow dot border, the white teardrop forms, the precise division of black and red — all done freehand, by hand, every time.

Fitted with steel stud posts. An exceptional everyday earring and a genuinely special gift for anyone who appreciates bold, handmade Indian folk jewellery.
