A round disc hung from a fine ring, its pale face worked with a hand-engraved motif in dark relief.
Pallavi is made from Boxwood and Ebony, two of the woods that pass through a Kolkata workshop making parts for musical instruments. The Ebony is the wood of violin fingerboards and tailpieces; the Boxwood is what instrument makers use for fittings and for their own bench tools. Both reach us as offcuts from that work — fully seasoned, dense and stable. Read how the wood gets here.
The disc hangs free from a small ring rather than sitting fixed against the lobe, so it swings and turns as you move. The face carries the decoration; the dark and the pale play against each other across it.
Engraved work is the slowest thing we make and the least reproducible. A moulded earring is identical a thousand times over. A cut one is not: the hand that made yours made it once, and the small differences between one disc and the next are the record of that.
Details ▾
Woods: Boxwood and Ebony, responsibly repurposed exotic hardwoods.

Pair weight: about 10 g.
Findings are metal alloy. Sold as one pair.
Handcrafted in Kolkata, India.
Styling ▾
A hanging disc is a forgiving statement shape — round, unpointed, and it turns rather than staying rigid, which keeps it looking soft even at this size.
It suits handloom and khadi particularly well, where a hand-cut surface sits naturally against a hand-woven one. With plainer, more tailored clothes it becomes the single decorative thing you are wearing, which is the easiest way to use it.
Looking after it ▾
- Keep it in a cool, dry place, out of direct sunlight.
- Store pieces separately so they do not knock against one another.
- Wipe gently with a soft dry cloth after wearing.
- Avoid perfume, moisturiser, soap and other chemicals.

Is the design printed on? ▾
No. It is cut into the wood by hand. There is nothing lying on the surface that could scratch off or wear away with use.
Are both earrings identical? ▾
Close, but never exactly. Each disc is engraved by hand, so no two faces fall quite the same way.
Will they be heavy on my ears? ▾
The pair weighs about 10 g. A disc of this size in metal would pull on the lobe; in wood it does not.
Which woods are these? ▾
Boxwood and Ebony. Both colours are the woods' own — nothing is stained or dyed.
Will the colour fade? ▾
Wood deepens rather than fades. Kept out of direct sunlight and away from chemicals, both woods darken slightly over the years and hold their polish.
