Trinayani Durga Terracotta Necklace Set

Description

Trinayani, the three-eyed one, is one of Bengal’s oldest names for Maa Durga. In this set she appears three times: three shield-shaped terracotta tiles, shaped in clay, fired and painted by hand, each with a stylised Durga face and three leaf-shaped eyes, the third one resting on her forehead. The tiles hang one below the other in a long vertical drop from two black beads on a soft bundle of black threads, and a pair of single black face earrings completes the look. We handpicked this set from Santiniketan, where clay and colour are part of everyday life. Wear it with a red Banarasi on Ashtami, a laal-paar saree for sindoor khela, or a plain kurta whenever you want Maa close by.

Pick your colour:

• Multicolour: a black top tile with a white dotted crown, a mustard-yellow middle tile and a maroon-red bottom tile, all with white painted eyes and little dotted flowers
• Black: all three tiles in black, painted only in white: the dotted crown on top and a lacy paisley head-cloth on the middle tile

• Material: hand-painted terracotta, black beads, cotton thread
• Set includes: 1 necklace + 1 pair of earrings (single black Durga face drops on fish hooks)
• Size: each tile about 4 cm wide; the three-tile pendant about 12 cm long
• Cord: bundle of black threads, tied at the back
• Care: keep away from water & perfume; store in the pouch

Every Jhaapi piece is handmade, so tiny variations make yours one of a kind.
