Teer-Kona Dokra Bugadi/Ear Climbers
Description
Balancing sacred tribal geometry with clean architectural lines, the Teer-Kona Earrings honor Bengal’s 4,000-year-old cire-perdue (lost-wax) metalcasting legacy. The silhouette features an expanding triangular labyrinth reminiscent of stylized arrowheads and traditional folk temple spires, framing an inner spiral core. Indigenous artisans shape every linear ridge and corner turn by hand using pliable beeswax threads over an alluvial clay core. Once enveloped in river mud and fired in open earthen kilns, the lost wax gives way to molten brass, leaving behind the distinctive tactile warmth, organic variations, and satin-gold finish unique to authentic Dokra jewelry. Finished with elongated integrated wire hooks for pierced ears, they bring an effortless, neck-lengthening statement to Jamdani sarees, handloom kurtas, or contemporary minimalist tailoring.
