Rare Sunburst Tribal Bridal Bangles, late 19th century

This exquisite pair, is one of the announcers that a woman is married in the central Indian tribe.
The Sunburst design is rare because of the difficutly in crafting symmetrical beauty in 3 dimensions.
For years I have looked for a 'dundu' in gold and have not come across one yet.
This piece and another one in silver are the closest I've found.
