Risham, the Bangalore-based, hand-crafted contemporary jewelry line enhancing self-expression among Indian women. Srutiza Mohanty, the founder of Risham, took it upon herself to revive the age-old bead weaving that expert artisans have carefully preserved for thousands of years. She has now carefully transitioned the entire technique into costume fashion jewelry by adding her creative twist.

The complex, unique and captivating patterns created through this art form caught the fancy of Srutiza when she had a flourishing career as a software engineer. Her passion for unique hand-made and ancient art-inspired jewelry reflects in every piece of jewelry.

Speaking about this, Srutiza Mohanty, Founder of Risham Jewelry, said, “The moment I first looked at this ancient art, I knew I had to revive it and make it contemporary in a way that every woman would want to add it to her wardrobe. Initially, I made 2-3 pieces a month, but the humongous reception to my designs made me contemplate a full-fledged business. When my daughter was born, I decided to quit the corporate job and follow my passion. By reviving the bead-weaving art in the form of contemporary jewelry, I am not only bringing about a refreshing new option for women but focusing on reviving a precious yet endangered art form that has been carried over from one generation to another for thousands of years.”

About Risham

Working with an exclusive and closely knit team of craftswomen, Srutiza has changed the perception of beads as a jewelry item. The unique, colorful, and nature-inspired designs appear irresistible to fashion-savvy women. Classic, timeless, and durable, the Risham jewelry pieces are ideal heirlooms that can be cherished and worn for an entire lifetime and passed on to the next generation, just like they used to be in ancient times. Risham has been a bootstrapped venture so far. Still, now Srutiza Mohanty is leading it to aggressively expand into the physical fashion jewelry retail space and is contemplating VC funding from investors who share her vision and passion to support original art forms and improve the lives of craftswomen across India.
