This beautiful gold earring is from Gandhara, an ancient South Asian region located in what is now north-western Pakistan and eastern Afghanistan. Desirable because of its strategic location, access to silk routes and ports, Gandhara had been conquered by many civilisations over hundreds of years.

Seated Buddha (Gandhara, modern-day Pakistan, c 100 CE)
This small bronze Buddha is probably one of the earliest iconic representations of Shakyamuni from Gandhara. He sits in a yogic posture holding his right hand in abhaya mudra (a gesture of approachability);
