Chinese Imperial Style Asymmetrical Lacquer Earrings
Handcrafted Natural China Lacquerware · Mother-of-Pearl · 925 Sterling Silver
In ancient China, lacquerware was more than an art form—it was a language of status, beauty, and power. These asymmetrical China lacquerware earrings are inspired by the colors once reserved for royalty: deep crimson red for vitality and glowing imperial gold for prosperity.
Each bead begins as natural hardwood, coated with layer upon layer of raw lacquer applied by hand—just as artisans did centuries ago. Between the lacquer layers, tiny pieces of shimmering mother-of-pearl (螺钿) are carefully inlaid, catching the light like sparks beneath the surface. Finally, the warm, organic texture of lacquer meets the modern shine of gold-toned metal, creating Lacquer Earrings that feel both ancient and contemporary—like wearing a small piece of imperial history.
Because every step is done manually, the swirl patterns and color gradients form naturally during the curing process. No two beads are ever exactly the same, making each pair truly one of a kind.
