The value of the metal says a lot about the status of the woman wearing it. If it is authentic silver, it may be a woman who has a husband with more money than a tribal woman who does not. This classism does not seem fair, but is the reality. Tribal women usually wear these items to the store or a friend's house. It is only on special occasions that they are worn.

Some items are so bulky that you cannot wear them. Western women especially may find them uncomfortable because they are not used to the weight.
