Celebrate the beauty of handcrafted jewellery with Dokra Pendant III, an authentic GI-certified brass pendant handcrafted by award-winning artisan Shri Gauranga Karmakar from West Bengal. Inspired by the timeless aesthetics of India's tribal metal craft, this elegant pendant is created using the ancient lost wax casting technique, transforming molten brass into a wearable work of art. Its sculptural design and rustic finish make it a versatile accessory that effortlessly complements both ethnic and contemporary fashion.
Dokra is one of the oldest surviving metal-casting traditions in the world, with a legacy spanning more than 4,000 years. The craft traces its origins to the Indus Valley Civilization and continues to be practised today by artisan communities across eastern India. Every pendant is first sculpted entirely in wax before being covered with layers of fine clay. Molten brass is then poured into the mould, replacing the wax and capturing every handcrafted detail with remarkable precision. Since the clay mould is broken after casting, every Dokra pendant is completely unique, making each piece an original creation.
Handcrafted by GI-certified artisan Shri Gauranga Karmakar, this pendant showcases the distinctive characteristics of authentic Dokra jewellery—organic textures, sculptural detailing, and an antique brass finish that reflects the warmth of handmade craftsmanship. Every curve, motif, and surface is individually finished by hand, giving the pendant its own personality and ensuring that no two pieces are exactly alike. As the brass matures, it develops a natural patina that enhances its vintage appeal and adds to its enduring charm.
Designed to be lightweight and comfortable, Dokra Pendant III pairs beautifully with handloom sarees, linen dresses, cotton kurtas, Indo-western ensembles, and contemporary casual wear. Whether worn as an everyday accessory or reserved for festive occasions, it reflects an appreciation for sustainable craftsmanship and India's rich artisan traditions. It also makes a thoughtful gift for birthdays, anniversaries, festive celebrations, art lovers, jewellery collectors, executive gifting, and premium corporate gifting.
