Sūrya
The Sūrya Collection by Noir KĀLA embodies raw elegance and the quiet presence of the sun. Inspired by the Sanskrit word Sūrya, meaning “sun,” these designs celebrate vitality, clarity, and timeless strength.
The collection features a range of Sūrya earrings, versatile Sūrya hoops, and bold Sūrya ear weights — pieces that balance lightness, form, and depth. From everyday hoops to sculptural statement adornments, Sūrya is designed for those who seek jewelry with intention, presence, and individuality. Every piece is handcrafted to create adornments meant to be worn, layered, and remembered.
Surya — Meaning & Symbolism
In Sanskrit, Sūrya means “sun” — a symbol of vitality, clarity, and illumination. The Sūrya Collection draws inspiration from this meaning, interpreting it through a modern, design-driven lens.
Within Noir KĀLA’s language of mythic-modern expression, these pieces embody quiet energy and bold form without overstating spiritual meaning. Rather than claiming to hold mystical powers, the Sūrya earrings, hoops, and ear weights are envisioned as contemporary symbols — jewelry that reflects the balance of light, strength, and individuality.
Each piece blends cultural inspiration with Noir KĀLA’s evolving aesthetic, honoring origins while shaping an identity rooted in modern craft and timeless artistry.
Materials & Finishes
• 925 Sterling Silver — Durability & Brilliance
The 925 sterling silver Sūrya earrings and hoops are crafted for strength, longevity, and wearability. Over time, silver naturally develops a soft patina, which can be polished away or embraced for added depth and character. Simple care steps — such as storing in a pouch and polishing gently — help maintain its luminous finish and heirloom quality.
• Brass — Warmth, Texture & Patina
The brass Sūrya pieces carry a grounding tone and substantial weight, developing a unique patina with age. Each wearer’s journey shapes the look of the brass, deepening its natural texture and individuality over time. Whether polished bright or left to evolve naturally, brass offers both modern expression and timeless authenticity.
Craftsmanship & Origin — Small-Batch Artistry
Every Sūrya piece is handcrafted in Rajasthan, India, where small-batch, intergenerational workshops preserve centuries-old techniques in metalwork and ornament shaping. Artisans combine traditional silversmithing skills with modern design precision, allowing Noir KĀLA to create pieces that merge heritage craftsmanship with a grungy, futuristic identity.
The result is intentional, small-batch jewelry — jewelry designed slowly, thoughtfully, and sustainably. Each Sūrya creation represents a meeting point between cultural respect, modern design, and artistry shaped for today.
Size, Weight & Fit Guide

Styling — Minimal Layers & Statement Pieces
The Sūrya hoops bring effortless versatility, transitioning easily from minimal daily wear to layered styling when paired with other Noir KĀLA creations. They can be worn solo for a subtle nod to form or combined with cuffs and studs to create contrast and dimension.
The Sūrya ear weights, on the other hand, are designed for occasions where impact and presence matter most. Their scale, movement, and sculptural quality lend themselves to statement styling, embodying Noir KĀLA’s evolving aesthetic — bold, intentional, and quietly powerful.
Care & Maintenance
925 Sterling Silver: Wear regularly to reduce tarnish. Store in a soft pouch, avoid chemical exposure, and polish gently with a cloth to restore brilliance.
Brass: Keep away from moisture and chemicals to preserve surface integrity. Wipe gently after wear and store airtight when not in use. Embrace the natural patina or polish to maintain brightness — both approaches honor the material’s evolving character.
With proper care, Sūrya earrings, hoops, and ear weights are designed to age beautifully, becoming more personal over time.
