Now that it’s Summer, arms and legs are exposed. Why not show off your legs with a nice anklet. They come in all colors, many designs, and made with a variety of materials. I’ve had some folk tell me anklets make their legs look sexy.imgp2518.JPGimgp2520.JPG

beaded anklets

And now I can buy as many as I Want without having to worry about a credit card bill showing up.  I could easily spend hundreds on these in the mall or even in local jewelry stores, but it’s definitely good that I don’t have to.  The quality is unquestionable and uncompromising and the prces are just a big bonus.

 Not to mention, beaded anklets are almost impossible to find in the first place.  The few jewelers and dealers that do sell them know that they can mark them up pretty high because they’re not that easy to find.  But now thanks to you guys at Gifted Hands that’s no longer a concern for me.  Great designs, great products and great work!

Wondering what to do with your Beaded Ankletsbeaded anklets?

An anklet, ankle chain, or ankle bracelet, 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.

Anklets can be made of silver, gold, and other less precious metals as well as leather, plastic, nylon and other such materials. In the western world anklets or ankle chains are mainly worn by younger females, but some older women also wear them.

Metal anklets are of two types - flexible and inflexible. The flexible ones, often called pajeb or jhanjhar in India, are made by tying links in a chain. Subsequently, sonorous bells can be attached to the chain, so that the wearer can make pleasing sounds while walking. Inflexible ones are usually created by giving shape to a flat metal sheet.

Most anklets seem to be worn on the right ankle. Perhaps this is due to more people being right-handed. Although in eastern cultures, anklets are worn on both ankles.
