Sikka-e-Sabz - Aventurine Silver Earrings

Sikka-e-Sabz is a pair of gold plated silver earrings by Orah Jewels and Crafts, inspired by antique coins and detailed with engraved calligraphy. Set with natural aventurine gemstones, the rich golden finish and earthy green stones give the pair a distinctive, heritage inspired character.

The aventurine in Sikka-e-Sabz is sourced from Swat Valley, KPK, the same mineral rich terrain that produces some of Pakistan's finest colored gemstones. Aventurine is a variety of quartz whose green color and subtle shimmer, known as aventurescence, come from tiny inclusions of fuchsite mica embedded within the stone, catching and scattering light as the piece moves. The coin motif engraved around the setting draws on a long regional history of coinage and calligraphy as decorative form, giving the earrings a heritage character beyond the stone alone.

The engraved calligraphy circles the coin shaped frame, with the aventurine set at the center so the green reads clearly against the gold finish. The pair sits close to the ear and carries enough presence to work as a standalone statement.

Made at the Orah Jewels and Crafts facility in Lahore. One pair.
