How to Style Them

Red reads most festive against gold, which is why it anchors so much South Indian wedding dressing. Wear them with a red or maroon silk saree for a matched look, or set them against cream, ivory or deep green if you would rather the colour sit as an accent. The oxidised finish darkens the recesses and leaves the raised edges polished, which is what makes carved detail readable from across a room. It pairs especially well with cotton, handloom and indigo. Pearl drops soften the outline of an otherwise structured piece, which is why they turn up on so much bridal jewellery.

Perfect For

Festivals, weddings, kurta and saree looks, and everyday ethnic wear.

Care

Last on, first off: put these on once you have finished getting ready and take them off before you sleep or bathe. Wipe them dry after wearing, keep them in a pouch rather than loose in a drawer, and the finish will stay as it arrived.
