Güngur comes from the Sanskrit word "Ghunghroo" meaning bell.
In India, the "Ghunghroos' are regarded as the symbolic sound representing all their classical dance forms.
It´s a beautiful ornament that serves to accentuate the rhythmic aspects of the dance and allows complex footwork to be heard by the audience. Behind every sound emitted by the bells is a step that was taught, learned and mastered. Thus the "Ghunghroos” are one of the most important components of dance as they emphasize the rhythm that the dancer must follow. When this happens successfully, the artist captures the attention of the audience and draws them even closer to the magnificent art of dance.
To achieve a perfect sound, it requires time and patience to carefully weave and sew every bell in the strings that wrap around the ankle.
This traditional craftsmanship has persisted throughout the centuries, giving "Ghunghroos" a unique and wonderful value.
We wanted the bells, from their creation to their ultimate purpose, to be the root of our project. Güngur was a dream and today is the result of many steps in life. Güngur is synonymous with art, beauty and tradition.
