Product Description

Bangles in India are more than accessories; they are emblems of culture and social status. Aside from being a declaration of being a married woman, Indian bangles connote romantic and amorous statements. Based on classical Indian poetry, the woman's yearning for her lover or husband is indicated through the slipping of the bangle from her wrist, suggesting that the agony of being away from him is making her unhealthy and thin. The music coming from the tinkling bangles also carries its own meaning, expressing the presence of the woman, her wish for his attention, her desire, or even anger. Bangles are usually slipped on a wrist just by a little bit of pressure. Occasionally, oil is used on the hand for easy slipping. Derived from the Hindu word bungri, meaning glass, bangles are made from precious and non-precious material such as silver, platinum, gold, wood, glass, and plastic, just to name a few. Bangles are integral to traditional Indian jewelry. Women usually wear them in pairs, one or more on each arm. Indian women typically prefer glass or gold bangles or a combination of the two. Today, however, plastic bangles are becoming more popular than the more expensive glass bangles. But special occasions such as festivals and marriages will still call for the more traditional glass bangles. Bangle designs come in a wide variety. Some have simple designs, while others are more ornate and intricate in detail. Gems, diamonds, pearls, or semi-precious stones may be used to embellish them.
