Turkmen Gold Triangle Earrings
Turkmen Gold Triangle Earrings
Turkmen earrings are among the most recognizable pieces of jewelry from Central Asia. Their form is composed of several segments connected by chains, creating a long, elegant composition culminating in a decorative triangle.
The lower section of the earrings is crafted as a triangular plate adorned with red glass beads set in gold-plated settings. The gold plating contrasts with the natural color of the silver, which is characteristic of traditional Turkmen jewelry.
The middle section consists of two movable segments with additional red glass beads. Thanks to the connection on the chains, the earrings move freely when worn, emphasizing their decorative character.
The visible patina of the silver and traces of handcrafted work attest to the artisanal origins of this jewelry. The combination of silver, gold plating, and red glass beads is one of the most characteristic elements of traditional Turkmen aesthetics.
