Afghan jhumka earrings with rosette

These striking jhumka earrings from Afghanistan, created in the traditional jewelry style of the region, are distinguished by an openwork rosette element with a central red gemstone – an eye-catching embellishment that evokes symbolic forms popular in the jewelry of Central Asian peoples.

The bottom of the earrings is decorated with bell-shaped pendants terminated with spiral wires. Their shape – resembling an inverted dome – is a characteristic feature of the jhumka style, also popular in India and Pakistan. The decorative elements move with each movement, producing a subtle, delicate sound.

The earrings are made of a light metal, declared as high-grade silver, but without a hallmark. Their exact composition has not been laboratory tested. For safety's sake, we recommend treating them as an unspecified silver-content item—typical of antique Afghan jewelry.

This is an excellent choice for those who appreciate authentic craftsmanship with a history, vintage pieces, and an oriental aesthetic with a raw finish. Each pair may vary slightly in detail, reflecting the natural traces of handicraft.
