Anklets: The Walking Fashion

Anklets, shorted for ankle bracelets, add a spark to your beauty. This ornament that is to be worn around the ankle is the perfect match with the traditional as well as the contemporary wear. Flourishing since 1800 A.D. anklets have been one of the most important forms of jewelry for the women. Attached with the ankle chain are usually some sonorous bells that create a pleasant sound while one walks.
Anklets
are usually made up of silver, gold, and other less precious metals as well as leather, plastic, nylon and other such materials. This was worn by women in old times when the Purdah system was there so that their presence was known. Evolved from Egypt making its way to the Arab and other Middle East countries the anklets are also symbolizing the social and the spiritual aspects of the culture.
