Delhi-based Studio Metallurgy draws inspiration from industrial design; its pieces are minimal and made in brass, which founder Advaeita Mathur says is the most beautiful metal. “ It shines like liquid gold when polished and ages gracefully into a dull patina over time, in sync with the ‘industrial’ look and feel," she says. The Fuse Chandelier earrings are made of lacquer-plated brass shaped like chandeliers and electrical fuses.
