Bangles are inflexible bracelets, usually circular in shape worn around the wrist or the arm. Bangles usually consist of a single band of silver, gold or platinum that is either fastened with a clasp or, in contrast to torque bracelets, are closed all the way around and simply slipped over the wrist and kept in place by the width of the hand.
As one of the oldest forms of jewellery, bangles are traditional Indian pieces, usually worn in pairs with one or more on each arm. Some ancient civilisations believed that the more bangles that they could stack up the arms of their women would lead others to believe they were of a higher status.
Indian women favour glass or gold bangles or a combination of the two, either plain and understated or embellished with beautiful, elaborate designs. On extra special occasions such as a wedding or religious festival a diamond bangle may be worn but semi-precious gem stones may be set into the bangles worn everyday.
Bangles tend to knock together when worn on the same wrist and make quite a substantial jingle when crafted from the finest gold and silver, like those featured in the Jewellery Boxed collection, in contrast to the harsh, tinny sound made by imitation jewellery.
