Lovely handmade silver Indian tribal earrings, known as vedhla, from Gujrat, worn by Kutch women on the top part of the ear lobe. 

A faceted pink glass cabochon in a raised bezel forms the top part. The long ear wires are soldered to them on one end. The other end continues downward to end with a small soldered-on pendant. The stem is wrapped with silver wire. 

Unmarked but tested positive for high-grade silver. The ear wires are a larger gauge than the ones used in modern times.  The earrings are in good vintage condition. There are similar examples in the V&A Museum's collection.

  • Length is 5.5 cm (2 1/4").
  • The discs are 1.5 cm (just over 1/2") across.
  • Weight is 10.4 g.
