Oxidised Elephant Hoop Earrings with Beaded Drop
Oxidised elephant hoop earrings put a small, characterful elephant at the top of an open chevron-pattern hoop, with a cluster of faceted beads and a teardrop swinging inside the frame. The darkened, antique-look finish brings out the zig-zag texture of the hoop and the mesh detail on the elephant, while the stud post at the top keeps the pair sitting neatly at the ear. Available in pink, red, white and yellow, these oxidised elephant hoop earrings are made for the woman who wants a little personality in her jewellery without making a fuss about it.
The elephant has long been a symbol of strength, memory and good fortune in Indian tradition, and the Asian elephant appears across the country’s temple art, festivals and royal processions. These elephant earrings bring that motif into everyday jewellery: a compact figure with a curled trunk and a textured saddle-cloth, set against a hoop that frames it like a small stage.
Design Details of the Oxidised Hoop Earrings
Each part of these oxidised hoop earrings has its own detail. The hoop is an open C-shape with a braided-look chevron pattern running all the way round and a matte round bead at each end of the opening. At the top sits the elephant, made as a left and right pair. From the elephant’s feet, a short cluster of faceted beads on fine wire links leads down to a single teardrop that hangs in the opening of the hoop and moves freely when you turn your head.
The oxidised elephant hoop earrings come in four colours, all in the same design:
Pink: soft pink beads with a pink teardrop stone. It pairs well with white, grey, ivory, sage green and navy.
Red: bright red beads with a red teardrop stone. It pairs well with white, cream, black, olive and navy.
White: a white pearl-style teardrop with black faceted beads. It pairs well with almost any outfit colour, from white and pastels to jewel tones.
Yellow: yellow beads with a yellow teardrop stone. It pairs well with white, ivory, indigo, olive and black.
How to Style Oxidised Elephant Hoop Earrings
Oxidised elephant hoop earrings have enough presence to be the only jewellery you wear, so a clean neckline is all they need. A crisp cotton kurta, a handloom saree, a co-ord set, a denim jacket over a plain tee or a shirt dress all give the elephant and the swinging drop room to stand out. In any of the four colours, the pair works for everyday wear, office days, family functions and festive evenings alike, and the same earrings can move from a desk to a dinner without a change.
The oxidised finish also makes the pair easy to coordinate with other oxidised pieces such as bangles, kadas and rings.
