EMERALD AND DIAMOND EARRINGS

EMERALD AND DIAMOND EARRINGS

Bhagat, c. 2010

Celebrated jeweler Viren Bhagat, based in Mumbai, India, is known for blending Indian aesthetics with Art Deco influences and contemporary craftsmanship. The house’s legacy traces back to his great-grandfather, a goldsmith in Gujarat, and after the closure of the Mumbai boutique in 1987, Bhagat revived the family business with an aesthetic that marries classical motifs with minimalist forms. Each year, 40 to 70 meticulously handcrafted pieces are produced, reflecting a blend of tradition and modern refinement. These supremely elegant ear pendants feature two briolette-cut diamonds weighing 20.17 carats and two large emerald beads totaling 103.68 carats, set in platinum, exemplifying the brand’s signature approach to refined luxury.
