Answer:
The author emphasizes the value of Della’s hair by contrasting its beauty with the plainness of her possessions.
Explanation:
The author presents a contrasting picture of the things owned by Della. The difference between her old clothes and her beautiful hair has been presented in a very subtle way. It also presents a description of the things possessed by Della. The description of her long hair brings into consideration that it was the only materialistic thing that she possessed in her life. The beauty of her hair also presents a contrast to the 'plainness' of her life. In the story, the couple traded their most loved materialistic things to gift a materialistic gift to each other. They sacrificed their most valuable things to buy happiness for each other.
