Bindu Dokra Stud Earrings
Description
Balancing sacred tribal geometry with a playful, modern cadence, the Bindu-Chhanda Studs celebrate Bengal’s 4,000-year-old cire-perdue (lost-wax) casting art. The silhouette centers around an expanding spiral sun disc (chokro) that sweeps downward into two descending circular loops, creating the fluid movement of rippling river currents and traditional alpona ritual art. Rural artisans shape each concentric ridge and open ring by hand using fine, flexible beeswax threads overlaid onto an alluvial river clay base. Once baked and cast in open wood kilns, the melted wax is replaced by molten brass, yielding the organic tactile finish, natural asymmetries, and warm satin-gold glow unique to authentic Dokra jewelry. Built with post backings for comfortable pierced wear, these studs bring a subtle sculptural statement to everyday linen tunics, handloom cotton sarees, or minimal western wear.
