Made in small batches
Blue is one of the harder colours to fire evenly, so runs are short and the next batch will differ slightly.
A temple set, made light
Semmalar means red flower, and the beads are shaped to suit — petalled rather than round, formed by hand at the rolling stage.
Shaped beads crack more often before firing than plain ones, so runs are small. Red is mixed into the clay, sun-dried two days, kiln-fired eight hours, then gold-detailed and sealed. Terracotta jewellery throughout — clay, colour and paint, with no stones.
Wears well with: plain silk in cream, gold and maroon, where the shaping can be seen.
Care: petalled beads catch more easily. Store wrapped on its own, dry cloth only.
- Necklace and matching earrings included
- Hand-painted gold detail
- Adjustable cotton dori, fits 14″–26″
- Comes in a cotton pouch and gift box
Looking after terracotta
Wipe gently with a soft dry cloth after wearing. Keep away from water, perfume and hairspray. Store each piece in its own pouch or box so painted surfaces do not rub. Terracotta is fired clay — it is sturdy in daily wear but will not survive a hard drop on stone floors.
Delivery and returns
Ready-to-ship pieces leave us within 2–4 days and arrive in 5–7 days across India. Made-to-order custom sets take about four weeks from confirmation. International orders add 7–14 days. Damaged-in-transit pieces are replaced free — send us an unboxing photo within 48 hours.
Six days, start to finish
Natural river clay is wedged by hand and shaped without moulds, sun-dried for two days, then kiln-fired at high heat for 8 hours. Non-toxic acrylic and metallic paints are applied by hand and kemp stones are set one at a time. No two pieces are identical.
