Tatted Earrings:

Fig 1

Hi friends,
Earrings is a  jewellery for ear. In India, ears of all girls and boys, particularly Hindus are pierced and that is one of the religious rite.

Earrings are very special jewellery type which girls like to wear most. In my twenties that is in 1974-75 simple rings were our usual earrings (fig 2).  Jhumar or Big rings with pearls attached to the bottom cord of that ring, used to be the most fashionable and functional earring as in fig 3.

Once I insisted for such big rings to my mother and she made them for me but my grand mother didn't like such big earrings and I have fearful regard for her. So I never wore those earrings. But I still loved them.


But we all sisters became habituate with only tops as earring.

But still I like big earrings though I never wore such. So I also like to tat such big earrings and now a days it's also a latest fashion to wear big earring.

So I made these earrings in the last week. Earrings in fig 1, are with little bit variation of the earring in,
