Armlets that often resemble bracelets but are much larger are worn above the elbow. Unlike bracelets, the armlets need to be shaped in such a way that they remain in position through pressure. ShalinCraft armlets are of flexible kind and are known in India as bajuband. This flexible type is made of many narrow elements, whose vertical edges have a variety of angular contours that fit along side each other like a jigsaw puzzle. Armlets may be decorated with a variety of metal working techniques, and the more elaborate employ enamel and precious stones. In Rajasthan, the upper arm jewelry is an essential part of the marriage jewelry, be it the Rajputs (rulers in earlier periods) or the Banjaras (nomads).
