This is a string Ghungroo pair with each ankle bell having about 25 brass bells. This item has high quality big brass bells on the string. Very good sound !!! There are string on each end of the Ankle Bell with which the performer need to tie the ankle bell to their ankles - not buckle type.

Each bells are about 13~14mm in diameter and the lenght of each string is about 12inches. There is extra rope to tie the bells around your ankle.

Dancers use Ankle bells while performing all kinds of asian dances. Especially belly dancers and Indian Classical dancers use ankle bells for all their performances. These bells are made by attaching ghungroos (metal bells) to leather or cloth pads.

Ankle bells are known in different names in different parts of India. In Tamilnadu, it is known as Salangai and in Kerala people call it Chilanka. In north India it is commonly calles as Ghungroo. Depending upon the age of the dancer and the size of ankles, one can choose the size of the ankle bell. Usually adults prefer a 5 line or 4 line ankle bell. For tean agers and small kids, parents can choose anything between a two line and four line.

    Nice service but ropes were too short...

    Shipping was within time specified and quality of the ghungroo is excellent. I found that the rope was too small though - they need to be long enough to go around the entire ankle and then have length to tie a knot also.

    Nice Ankle bells but the ropes are short

    The ankle bells were delivered on time. The bindings are also good. But it would have been better if the rope for binding them on ankle was a bit longer in length.

    Good ankle bells and reasonable price. I got a free shipping because I ordered more than $100. I havn't seen such a complete store for dance even in India. Very happy to see the products. Good service too.

    Good sound but...

    The bells and sound is good, but the thread looks dirty. Seem like they were stored in a dusty place...
