Earrings

Some critics feel that earrings do not belong on a Bunad. Strictly speaking this is correct. Back in time, the earrings were totally useless because the ears were covered with ether hair or a shawl or hat. Nowadays many skip the headgear and feel that it's a bit empty without anything in the ears.
