Heritage temple jewellery with the motif of `Kirtimukha' (glory-face or grotesque-mask that wards off the evil) .This fierce-looking, swallowing monster face with huge fangs, and gaping-mouth head with its tongue sticking out is extensively used as a decorative motif surmounting the pinnacle; doorways of temples or the images of deities in south Indian architecture. According to mythology Kirtimukha was created from the third-eye of Lord Shiva and is symbolic of the self-destructive nature of the unbridled ego-self in us.

In this handcrafted necklace a vividly etched, hollow `chased' sterling silver (92.5%) pendant is woven into black cotton thread. It is paired with a pair of intricate motif earstuds . The two-tone; gold/silver effect makes it more attractive.
