Collection: Bugadi

Traditional Silver Bugadi & Ear Cuffs

Celebrate a centuries-old tradition with the Bugadi Collection by Theeya Jewels. Historically worn by women in Maharashtra and across the Indian subcontinent, the Bugadi is a distinctive ornament worn on the helix (the upper rim) of the ear. We have reimagined this regal classic using premium 925 pure silver and heavy oxidized finishes. Infused with traditional temple motifs and rustic charm, our silver Bugadis are the perfect accessory to add an edge of cultural royalty to your ethnic looks.

Discover Our Bugadi Styles

• Pearl-Drop Bugadis: The quintessential traditional design, featuring intricate silver carving accented with delicate pearl hangings that softly frame the upper ear.
• Oxidized Tribal Bugadis: Darkened, antique-finish pieces featuring bold geometric and floral motifs, ideal for creating a striking, bohemian profile.
• Modern Silver Helix Cuffs: For the contemporary woman, these sleek, minimalist clip-on ear cuffs offer the Bugadi aesthetic without requiring an upper ear piercing.

How to Style a Silver Bugadi

A silver Bugadi draws immediate attention to the face and pairs beautifully with pulled-back hairstyles like a neat traditional bun or a sleek high ponytail. For a grand festive appearance, pair a heavy oxidized Bugadi with matching silver jhumkas or chaandbalis. It creates a stunning, fully adorned ear profile that beautifully complements a Nauvari saree or a heavy silk lehenga.
