Kolhapuri Thushi Bangles

Bangles known as Kankan, are an important ornament for all women, married as well as spinsters. Since ancient times, there is a tradition of making bangles, from various metals, glass, conch, sealing-wax, and ivory.

The tradition of wearing bangles in India started way back in ancient times. However, even today, women love to wear bangles to enhance their feminine grace and beauty with the help of bangles that are available in various colors and models. The word bangle has been derived from the HINDI word Bangri or Bangali, Which in Sanskrit gives the meaning “The ornament which adorns the arm”.

Our karagirs at Kalapuri, make beautiful designs in bangles which are a specialty of maharashtrian culture.
