A toe ring or Bichiya, is a ring made
out of various metals and non-metals worn on any of the toes. The second toe of either foot is
where they are worn most commonly. This is because proportionately it's the
longest toe and thus the easiest toe to put a ring on and stay without being
connected to anything else. In most western countries they are a relatively new fashion accessory, and typically have no
symbolic meaning. They are usually worn with barefoot
sandals, anklets, bare feet or flip
flops.
Like finger rings,
toe rings come in many shapes and forms, from intricately designed flowers
embedded with jewels to simple bands. Fitted toe rings are rings that are of
one size, whereas adjustable toe rings have a gap at the bottom so they can be
easily made to fit snugly.
