I don’t find too many opportunities to wear sarees myself. But over the years, I’ve observed countless women drape them and are actively looking for jewellery for sarees and they buy Risham jewelry with that specific intent in mind — in styles that are soft, sharp, vibrant, minimal, classic, and completely unexpected. And more than the fabric or the blouse, what has always stood out to me is how they style their sarees with our beaded jewelry or our silver pieces.
From silver to gold-plated to bead-woven pieces, the jewelry a woman wears with her saree is never just an accessory — it's a signal. Of her mood, her intention, her energy.
Here’s a look into what I’ve noticed, admired, and learned — and how Risham Jewelry fits into this beautiful puzzle.
Experimenting with Jewelry — What Clicked, What Didn’t
In all the saree styling I’ve witnessed, the pieces that stood out weren’t the loudest — they were the most authentic. I’ve seen women try statement beaded chokers that overwhelmed the neckline, or wear minimalist studs that got completely lost in a heavy drape.
But when a woman chooses jewelry that mirrors her own presence, that’s when the magic happens.
Earthy handmade beaded jewelry with handloom sarees. Sculptural silver with crisp cottons. Gold-plated layers with silks that shimmer under evening lights. What clicked was never a trend — it was the feeling.
What didn’t click? Jewelry that felt forced. Matched too literally. Chosen for tradition, not self-expression.
What to Wear: Styling Sarees with Risham Jewelry
Risham’s jewelry is designed to move with you — not dictate how you should dress. Here’s how different pieces come alive with different saree styles.
1. Beaded Jewelry for Everyday Sarees
Our handwoven beaded earrings and necklaces are perfect for soft, breathable sarees — cottons, linens, muls. They add texture and a pop of colour without stealing the show.
-
Style tip: Try our Willow Necklace or Urvi Necklace with a monochrome saree and a bun. It’s quiet drama — just enough.
2. Silver Jewelry for Earthy and Rooted Looks
Oxidised silver or polished statement rings and cuffs are made for sarees that speak of soil and story — ikats, khadis, raw silks.
-
Style tip: A bold Aarika silver ring paired with an indigo saree and bare arms — grounded, striking, effortless.
3. Gold-Plated Silver for Festive Statements
When the saree is celebratory, the jewelry can reflect that warmth. Our gold-plated pieces work beautifully with chanderis, tissue silks, and rich blends.
-
Style tip: The Amara double-layered necklace or the Astral Bloom Necklace is perfect for deep-cut blouses and evening silks. It adds grace without weight.
4. Mixed-Material Jewelry for the Unpredictable Mood
For those who don’t like to be boxed in, our bead + metal or wood combinations speak your language. Prefer a bracelet instead of the typical earrings and necklace? We have the perfect ones.
-
Style tip: Pair the Beaded Coral Bracelet with a crisp handloom saree and contemporary blouse. Add sneakers or juttis — your choice. Or go for handmade beaded Amaya Necklace if you like it long.
5. Beaded Earrings with Sarees That Have a Heavy Border
Heavy-bordered sarees already do a lot of talking. Instead of competing, choose long beaded earrings or silver earrings that offer movement and subtle detail.
-
Style tip: Go for Ava Earrings or Jharna Earrings with a minimal blouse — it gives your look space to breathe while adding texture where it counts.
6. When (and How) to Wear a Choker
Chokers are bold — but only when paired with the right neckline. They shine best with very high or deep neck blouses.
-
Style tip: Try a Sutra silver choker necklace or the red beaded choker necklace with a high-neck blouse for an elegant, clean look. Or wear it with a deep scoop to frame your collarbones. Never let it feel crowded.
Jewelry for Sarees Is Personal — And Always Will Be
There’s no one way to style a saree. And there’s definitely no one way to wear jewelry with it.
From watching women choose their pieces — some instinctively, some after trying five options — I’ve come to understand that jewelry is a language. Sometimes it whispers, sometimes it declares. But it always says something true.
At Risham, we create pieces for all of it:
The Monday drape that feels like armor.
The Sunday saree worn barefoot in the house.
The festive moment. The in-between moment.
The you, in all your versions.
So the next time you reach for a saree, don’t ask: What should I wear with this?
Ask: What do I want to feel like today?
The jewelry will follow.
