18kt Gold Seed Earrings

£650
Timeless 18kt gold seed earrings, handmade in Jaipur by master goldsmith Sushil.

When Pippa started to work in India, she stayed in a place with a beautiful lush garden, full of dappled sunlight and swaying large green leaves. She spent ages collecting seeds and fruit knocked down by the monkeys and hornbills in the trees, and loved the gentle shapes and beautiful curves of the young mangoes and full buds of flowers.

She would gather these treasures and show them to the goldsmiths, they laughed but enjoyed studying them too. The next day they arrived with little bags of lentils and other beads from their wife's larders to see about making them all in gold... this they did, and continue to do. To her, a seed holds everything - all life is contained in a seed. The potential for the future, the birth of a new idea or thought.. they are everything.

Meet The Maker

Sushil

Born in Jaipur Sushil and I have worked together for about 15 years, Sushil learned his skill from his family, his uncle Khen Raj who was a master goldsmith and has been a goldsmith for 25 years.

He specialises in hand work and is very proud and loves his work. Sushil and I have spent many hours studying seeds, leaves and flowers to replicate these minute miracles of nature in gold. He has a wonderful instinctive sense of beauty, proportion, balance and harmony in design.
