Product Details

The Motif
A realistic Parrot, sculpted in high relief and holding a bead in its beak.
The Palette
Sophisticated Graphite Grey enamel contrasting with Gold accents and Black/Pearl beads.
The Technique
Meenakari (Enamel). The brass body of the bird is hand-painted with a unique grey enamel to mimic the texture of feathers, then fired to set the color.
The Architecture
Stud
The bird sits securely on the earlobe via a post back.
Drop
Multiple fine chains hang from the bird, creating a "tassel" effect that grazes the shoulder.
Base Metal
Solid Brass Alloy (Strong enough to support the structure).
Dimensions
Length: Approx 3.5" - 4.0" (Statement length).
Weight
0.8 oz per pair (Note: These are statement earrings and have some weight).

Care

This piece mixes Enamel, Brass, and Beads.

Storage: Always hang them up or lay them perfectly flat. If you bunch them in a bag, the chains will knot.

Moisture: Keep dry to prevent the brass chains from tarnishing.

Impact: Enamel is glass-based powder fused to metal; dropping them on a hard floor can crack the bird's coating.

The Story Behind

  • The Grey Ghost.

    Meenakari is usually known for bright reds and greens. To create this sophisticated "Graphite" grey is a challenge in chemistry.

    Master Artisan Ratan must mix the enamel powders precisely to get this stormy, monochromatic shade. The application is even harder. The bird is not flat; it is a 3D sculpture. Ratan has to paint the enamel over the curve of the wing and the chest without the color running or pooling.

    Once fired, he attaches the "waterfall" a series of hand-linked chains that mimic the bird's long tail feathers. It is a piece that balances the stillness of the sculpture with the movement of the chains.

    Silent bird. Loud statement.
