Why Polki Earrings Are Every Bride’s First Choice?

Polki earrings have unanimously won the favour of the brides of 2024, and it looks like they’re here to stay. 

The polki-technique of today pays tribute to the style favoured by the royal court of the illustrious Mughal era, and has evolved from the interaction of diverse cultures to its current form. 

The stones chosen to make polki jewellery are best at their rustic charm, and the craftsmanship ensures that they are polished just enough to retain their natural beauty which are usually either embedded in a 24-karat gold casing (in the Jadau style) with enamel work (meenakari), or in a tulle-style in a jaali or mesh pattern (Badroom), or place side-to-side without a frame (Takkar setting) and arranged in a perfect symmetry. 

The Heritage of Polki

Polki recalls the luxury of eras bygone, and every piece of polki is unique, with no precious stone cut in the same way. Polki boasts of the elegant splendour of the royal Mughal court and serves as a homage to the intricate craftsmanship. 

Grace & Opulence: The Polki of Today 

Polki jewellery has absolutely taken over the bridal aesthetic scene. Not only are the uncut stones more subtle than the usual faceted diamond, but also take the spotlight without becoming it. Each piece merges well without overshadowing the bridal attire, which makes it far better when seen as a whole set. It’s complete with all the elements and actually becomes the outfit, or rather the bride, and reflects her own self, unique and beautiful. Symbolically too, polki jewellery gels great with weddings because of their significance as an auspicious allusion to eternal love, permanence and unique, personal identity.  

Here’s some top polki earring designs for 2025:

The Chandbali

The chandbali has remained the most classic style in the earring fashion scene for centuries. The chandbali retains its vintage charm, but also perfectly fuses with modern minimalist styles. The chandbali with its auspicious moon motif is perfect for weddings! These are best paired with an ornate long necklace, coupled with other delicate pieces. 

More with Jhumkas

Jhumkas are not just for the regular kurti-with-jeans throw-on, polki-style jhumkas are also a most popular choice for bridal jewellery. Ornate but comfortable— every bride knows: once a jhumka girl, always a jhumka girl. These go excellently with a mid-size statement necklace that sits right below the choker. 

Polki Tops

Polki top earrings have been gaining prominence in the wedding jewellery scene rapidly. These styles feature a single large uncut stone, framed by smaller ones in a most pleasing and unique shape. These styles are perfect with a matching polki choker, and can also be paired with the full set— mathapatti, nath, choker and ring. 

Long Polkis 

The dangler is iconic, and for polki-style jewellery, this is no exception. Danglers are fun, and at your wedding, a polki-style dangler can shine most brilliantly with your bridal lehenga, and a similarly paired, gorgeous mathapatti. The dangler is versatile, and never a miss!
