Hand-Painted Terracotta Jewellery Sets

My terracotta work is a slow, tactile process. It starts with molding raw, natural clay into specific shapes, which are then kiln-fired until they are durable and hard. Only after this firing process do I begin the painting. I use high-quality acrylics to draw traditional motifs like Warli stick figures, intricate mandalas, or floral patterns inspired by Bengal’s traditional alpona art.

Because these are made of natural, baked clay, they are surprisingly breathable and lightweight compared to heavy metal sets. They are a great fit for anyone who likes their fashion to be eco-friendly and sustainable.

Styling tips:

• Daily Wear: Keep it simple with smaller jhumkas or pendants in solid colors.
• Festive Occasions: Go for the larger, multi-colored statement sets featuring peacock or floral motifs.
• Maintenance: These pieces are sturdy, but treat them like ceramic. Keep them in a separate, dry pouch when not in use. Avoid wearing them while swimming or in heavy rain to protect the paint.

If you are planning to buy these for a festive giveaway or a bulk order, please reach out well in advance. Since everything is made from scratch, this gives me the necessary time for the clay to dry and fire perfectly before I hand-paint your specific design.
