Jhumka boxes come in three main sizes: mini boxes with 3 to 8 pairs, 12 pair boxes and 16 pair boxes. The right one depends less on budget than on who will wear it and how often. Here is a quick way to decide.

The short answer

  • Buying for yourself and you wear jhumkay often? Get a 16 pair box. It is the lowest price per pair and covers every outfit.
  • You love silver or oxidized jewellery? Look at 12 pair boxes, where most of our oxidized silver designs are.
  • Buying a gift, or trying us for the first time? A mini box (5 to 8 pairs) is the easiest choice.

16 pair jhumka box: the full wardrobe

Gulrukh 16 pair traditional jhumka box

Sixteen pairs means 32 earrings in one velvet box, usually mixing antique gold, silver-tone, stones and pearls. With that much range you can match almost any shalwar kameez, saree or lehenga, and still have pairs left to share.

  • Price: Rs 6,600 to Rs 9,999 (premium boxes Rs 14,000)
  • Best for: wedding season, bridal gifts, anyone who wears jhumkay every week
  • Watch out for: it is a big box. If the person only wears earrings occasionally, a smaller box is a kinder gift.

Shop 16 pair jhumka boxes or premium boxes.
