Microplated Coin Pallaka Stud – JCER616

Description

This earring is a stunning combination of two highly traditional South Indian jewelry styles: the Pallaka and the Coin/Lakshmi motif.

Key Features:
Palakka Element: The primary feature is the leaf-shaped, shield-like base set with a vibrant green stone (likely a synthetic emerald or colored glass), which is characteristic of the traditional Palakka (or Palakkai) jewelry from Kerala.

Coin/Lakshmi Motif: At the top, it is anchored by a small, round gold coin featuring an embossed figure, traditionally representing the Goddess Lakshmi (the goddess of wealth and prosperity).

Embellishment: The base is often surrounded by delicate gold beadwork or small plain studs, adding to its classic Temple Jewelry aesthetic.

Material: Crafted with a durable base metal and finished with micro gold plating, it offers the rich, detailed look of antique gold.
