Talk:Bangle

Is this section really necessary? Especially since the section's title includes "(unfinished)" and the writing is not particularly encyclopedic. I'm not going to act, but hopefully someone who knows a little more can do something here. Eris Discord | Talk 01:44, 4 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

The article seems to do its utmost to omit mentioning exactly which part of the body bangles are worn on. JIP | Talk 14:58, 10 January 2015 (UTC)Reply

Picture of the day

 

Bangles on display in Bangalore, India. These rigid bracelets are usually made from metal, wood, or plastic and are traditionally worn by women in India, Nepal, Pakistan, and Bangladesh. In India, it is a common tradition to see a new bride wearing glass bangles at her wedding and the honeymoon will end when the last bangle breaks.Photograph: Muhammad Mahdi Karim

While the tradition of wearing bangles may have started in South Asia, I think it's pretty clear the fashion has traveled worldwide. How has this article completely ignored this fact? WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 13:33, 16 November 2016 (UTC)Reply

This article currently is in a chaotic state. I just moved one piece of text away from the "History" section up into the overview text, but after this saw that two more chapters have nearly identical content as the overview, which itself really also is not an overview but a chaotic heap of quite specific informations better placed in extra chapters.

I came here after reading a Wikipedia article about British bronze age gold works, where British bronze age jewellery items were called 'bangles'. So if 'bangles' refers to all 'rigid bracelets' all over the world of any era, the overview/ the article clearly has to be changed; The Indian & neighboring countries and other regionally very relevant traditions and fashions should of course be told, but surely (sorted) in a different way than now. 2A02:3035:C17:408D:1:0:6268:4B05 (talk) 11:14, 13 April 2022 (UTC)Reply
