Whenever you pass through any village, town or city of India, tinkling of the colorful Bangles can be distinctly heard on the wrists of most of the Indian women.
It is customary for the married Indian woman to wear bangles in their hands and hence, red or green color glass bangles along with gold bangles can be seen to signify their married status.
Bangle jewelry is not new to India. Indian bangles are made out of copper, bronze, gold, silver, plastic, rubber and not to forget from glass also. Glass bangles are mainly produced in Firozabad, India and available in multitude of colors and designs. They still remain the hot favorites and most preferred of almost all Indian women.
Rajasthani lac bangles are equally attractive in design and shape. They are made out of a natural resin called lac. The lac bangles come in various colors and sizes. They are often adorning with tiny trinkets such as flowers, wires, beads and gold foil. When Rajasthani lac bangles are worn in coordination with bright and vivid Indian attire of ghagra choli or lehenga, they definitely add extra color and glamor to the appearance. Married women of certain tribes in Bihar wear lac bangles to signify their married status.
Fashion Bangles are worn as per the prevailing fashion of the time. Fashion bangles are equally creative and novel too. Some evergreen fashion bangles include tri colored metal bangles, oxidised gold metal bangles, and wooden bangles too. Some of the wooden bangles come in different designs and patterns. You can choose from hexagonal shaped bangles, square shaped bangles, thing bangles, carved wood bangles. Painted wood bangles and design painted on top also form lovely fashion accessories too. Among fashion bangles, you could opt for open metal bracelets, antique finish bracelets in the chunky funky variety too.
On the expensive side, you could go in for gold bangles, silver bangles or even bangles studded with precious stones. Rich in color, perfect in finish and with a dazzle and a shine, these bangles definitely highlight your rich taste and choice. They not only look classy and stylish but also elegant too.
Indian women have a taste for color and design. Indian bangle jewelry is available in many colors and shades. A visit to the bangle market or even a local bangle shop will leave you astounded with variety and shades available. You can opt for a pair of two bangles, four bangles or dozen bangles too. New brides prefer to fill their hands with bangles covering three fourths of their arms during their early days of marriage.
The vibrancy and vividness of bangles in India is strikingly visible during fairs, festivals, marriages and other special occasions in India. The clinkering and tinkering of bangles sets many a heart to skip their beats and bat eyelids too!!
