Lumba Rakhi’s
These
Rakhi’s were created in order to bring your brother’s wife into the ceremonies
as well. Lumba Rakhi’s have been made to be used as a “welcome to the family”
gesture for the brother’s wife. It usually comes as a pair of two. One Rakhi
for your brother along with a lumba Rakhi for his wife. The LumbaRakhi has been
designed to dangle off bangles as it is for the wife, not the brother himself. This
will not only cheer your brother up, but it’ll help his wife feel more welcome
in the family.

the above mentioned designs are available on the internet and one can even send
Rakhi online directly to their brothers address.
