A gift for someone drawn to lacquerwork
Keep lacquer away from water, perfume, and household cleaners.
Wipe with a soft dry cloth; avoid abrasives and solvents.
Store each earring separately in a soft pouch to prevent scratches.
The lacquer bead is made using traditional lacquerwork techniques, so the swirling pattern and shell inlay vary slightly from bead to bead.

A closer look
These drop earrings feature a distinctive two-part construction, pairing a luminous floral stud with a richly patterned lacquer bead. The upper element is a three-petal flower crafted from cat's eye stone, exhibiting a translucent, pale golden-yellow hue with a soft, silky chatoyant sheen that shifts subtly as it catches the light. Each petal is shaped like a rounded heart, arranged in a balanced, radial symmetry around a central focal point. At the very center of the flower sits a small, brilliant-cut clear crystal, securely set in a gold-toned bezel, adding a sharp point of sparkle that contrasts with the softer glow of the surrounding stone.
Suspended from the base of the floral stud by a small, polished gold-toned jump ring is a perfectly spherical lacquer bead. The bead measures 1.2 cm in diameter and displays a complex, swirling pattern of deep vermilion red and vivid cerulean blue, characteristic of traditional lacquerwork techniques. Embedded within this marbled surface are tiny, iridescent fragments of mother-of-pearl (raden), which catch the light with flashes of green, pink, and violet, creating a subtle mosaic effect beneath the glossy, glass-like lacquer finish. The bead is capped at the bottom with a small, rounded gold-toned pin head, securing the assembly and adding a finished metallic accent.
The metal components, including the jump rings, bezel settings, and pin heads, are specified as 14K gold, providing a warm, yellow-gold tone that complements both the pale yellow cat's eye stone and the warm red tones of the lacquer bead. The overall length of each earring is 3 cm from the top of the flower to the bottom of the bead, creating a proportion that is substantial enough to be noticed while remaining delicate in scale. The construction relies on a wooden core (wood substrate) for the lacquer bead, over which the layers of natural lacquer and shell inlay are applied, a technique rooted in traditional intangible cultural heritage craftsmanship.
The design aesthetic blends traditional artisanal elements with a contemporary jewelry silhouette. The combination of organic materials—wood, lacquer, shell, and semi-precious stone—with refined metalwork results in a piece that feels both earthy and elegant. The color palette is striking, juxtaposing the cool blues and warm reds of the bead against the soft, warm yellow of the flower and the bright gold of the hardware. The surface finishes vary from the high-gloss, reflective lacquer of the bead to the soft, matte-satin sheen of the cat's eye stone and the polished shine of the gold metal, creating a rich interplay of textures and light reflection.
