Toe Ring History

Sit back and let us tell you about the oldest toe ring and the first types of toe rings, used by both men and women, gleaned from legends in ancient manuscripts such as the Vedic Scripts.  The texts of Vedas date back to approximately 1500 to 500 BC.   Many scholars believe the earliest texts date back 6000 years! 

"Wearing of toe rings is practiced in India. It is worn as a symbol of married state by Hindu women and men, It is called bichiya (pronounced: bee-chee-ya) in Hindi, Mettelu in Telugu, Metti in Tamil. They are usually made of silver and worn in pairs (unlike the trend in Western countries, where they are worn singly or in unmatched pairs) on the second toe of both feet. Traditionally they are quite ornate, though more contemporary designs are now being developed to cater to the modern bride. Some 'bichiya sets' may have pairs for four of the five toes, excluding the little pinky. 'Bichiyas' may not be made of gold, as gold holds a 'respected' status and may not be worn below the waist by Hindus, but this is not followed very strictly and toe rings made of gold and diamonds are commonly seen."

Traditionally a large ring was worn on the great toe of the left foot to indicate a married status. Some men frequently wore a ring on the big toe for curative purposes or to augment their masculine vigor. These rings were seldom closed circles but open hoops so that they could easily be removed.
