Pleated Jewellery Made from Upcycled Saris
Pleating is the signature technique of I was a Sari jewellery. Women artisans in Mumbai fold pre-loved sari fabric by hand into airy, sculptural shapes, then finish each piece with beads and metal details. The result: bold, lightweight earrings and necklaces, each one of a kind.
Our pleated jewellery
- Pleated earrings: fan-shaped designs in several sizes, light enough for all-day wear.
- Pleated necklaces, style 160 and style 165: pleated pendants on black and gold bead strings.
Why pleated sari jewellery?
Pleating turns a small piece of fabric into a statement shape without adding weight. Because each piece uses a different sari, colours and patterns are never repeated.
