Pécha-Palki | Dokra Necklace & Earrings Set

The owl (Lokkhi Pécha) is one of the most celebrated and spiritually significant icons in Bengal’s 4,000-year-old Dokra metalcasting history. Representing auspiciousness, wisdom, and quiet guardianship, this statement set showcases a large, sculpted owl pendant defined by prominent concentric circular eyes, etched brow motifs, and cascading layered plumage that splays outward with organic weight. Matching drop earrings echo the folk silhouette with filigree wire lattice detailing inlaid with crimson fabric highlights. Artisans sculpt every feather spine and eye ridge by hand using warmed beeswax threads over an alluvial clay mold before firing in traditional wood-burning earth kilns. The resulting molten brass casting carries rich shadow recesses, natural textural variations, and an antique gold-bronze patina. Strung on an adjustable, hand-twisted black cotton thread cord accented with artisanal crimson and onyx fabric beads, it is a centerpiece made for Jamdani saris, handloom khadi silks, or ethnic fusion drapes.
