From the goldsmith to the engraver and enameler, watch the the process behind a pair of traditional earrings made in Mumbai and Jaipur
If you have ever marveled at the beauty of enameled jewels, you can watch these films created by the V&A to see the painstaking process. This is a very old skill, the word enamel shows up in English in the 15th Century, but these films were shot in modern day workshops. The style is traditional and the earrings are tiny. Keep watching and the next video shows up features earrings of gold and diamonds. It is always such a pleasure to see artisans at work.
