As you continue moving through the market you cannot avoid noticing that every woman in India wears jewelry. There are bangles, dalis, earrings and nose rings, toe rings and ankle bracelets.
Bangles come in glass, metal, plastic, ivory, silver and gold. Indian girls always have sparkling bangles to match their outfits, no matter how young they are.
Women wear pairs of toe rings - one on each foot - when they are married, but you can wear as many as four on each foot if you wish. Ankle bracelets full of bells keep homes full of joyful sounds as women go about their work.
Toe rings and ankle bracelets are almost always made of silver - gold is associated with the gods and many consider it too presumptuous to dirty it in the dust of the streets...
Whatever the material - beads, silver, gold, metals it is an intrinsic part of every women\'s dress. Indian traditional jewelry is famous world over for its ethnic style & gracious look.
