Artisan made with love

Two open hoops wrapped edge to edge in fine coils of pink, magenta, turquoise and green thread. Faceted gold beads punctuate the outer curve at regular intervals, catching the light along the arc.

  • Material: Cotton/rayon thread over metal hoop frame
  • Color: Multicolor
  • Length: 2 in
  • Closure: Post, lead- and nickel-free
  • Origin: India
  • Metal: Gold-tone beads and findings

At two inches long, the hoops sit just below the earlobe with real presence and almost no weight. From across the room they read as one saturated color; up close, the coil resolves into fine stripes of every shade at once.
Details
  • Open hoop silhouette
  • Hand-wrapped multicolor thread
  • Faceted gold-tone bead accents
  • Lightweight
  • Lead- and nickel-free posts

Because the thread is wound by hand, color placement and bead spacing vary slightly from piece to piece.

The Story

Thread-wrapped hoops are a common alternative to solid metalwork across India — a way to bring bold color into a simple hoop form using needle, thread and a steady hand rather than casting or forging.

The rainbow palette follows a textile tradition of layering mixed or offcut threads in tight bands, so the piece reads as a single vibrant hoop from a distance but resolves into finely woven color up close.

Each hoop starts as a plain metal frame. An artisan wraps it by hand in tight, even coils until the wire underneath disappears, threading small gold beads onto the coil at intervals and tucking the thread ends by hand rather than machine-finishing them.

Craft & Care
  • Technique: Hand thread-wrapped hoop

Keep away from water, perfume and lotion. Store flat so the wrapped thread does not fray or loosen.

Beautiful earrings

The earrings were a vibrant color and were well made. They went well with the Vibrant Kantha Multi-strand necklace I purchased.
