Silver anklet, ankle chain toe ring, or ankle toering,
is an ornament worn around the ankle. Anklets
historically have been worn for centuries by unmarried
women in India though in the United States both casual
and more formal anklets became fashionable in the late
twentieth century. While in western popular culture both
younger men and women may wear casual leather anklets,
they are more popular among women, and more formal
anklets (silver, gold, beads) are almost exclusively
confined to women's fashion.. Absolutely charming, ankle
bracelets go well with any casual dress for women,
occidental or oriental. They are particularly suited for
summers when women love to wear sandals. The feet of an
Indian woman are very often adorned with anklets.
Anklets are of two basic types, i.e. the stiff and the
flexible. The stiff anklets are either cast or
fabricated by hammering sheet metal into the requisite
shape. Using the techniques of chiseling, engraving,
repousse, granulation, or threading and wire work,
anklets are patterned. The flexible variety employs
close interlocking of separately made links tied
together either by using variations of chain technique
or by threading together of links. Known as Jhanjhar or
Paijeb, the flexible variety is often further adorned
with jingle bells. There is no better music to the years
of a lover than the jingling sound arising from the
steps of his beloved.
