Bracelets
Jewelry bracelets are the rings of the wrist.
Egyptians were the first civilization to spread the passion for bracelets.
Bracelets are one of the oldest jewelry pieces in the history of Humanity. The first complex
societies started to wear bracelets, rings and earrings with spiritual objectives.
In ancient Egyptian cultures, the Wedjat or Eye of Horus was pictured and placed in the central
position of the seven gold, faience, carnelian and lapis lazuli bracelets found on the mummy of
Shoshenq II.
The famous Scarab bracelet is one of the most famous and known symbols of ancient Egypt. It
meant to represent the concepts of rebirth and regeneration and was worn by relevant state
personalities in their funerals.
From India to Bulgaria, Greece and Latin America, bracelets have been used in totally different
occasions and for multiple reasons. There are simple wooden-made bracelets and luxurious
bracelets made of gold, diamonds and other gems.
Here are a few good examples of jewelry bracelets:
Bracelet designers work with so many materials and patterns. High end bracelets can combine
leather and aluminum with sterling silver, 14k gold, pearls and other precious stones.
The most famous jewelry brands and fashion houses have been dominating the market of
bracelets, despite the long list of possibilities when it comes to wrist adornments. From sports
bracelets, bangle bracelets and slap bracelets to beaded bracelets, link bracelets and karma
bracelets, there are patterns, designs, colors and prices for anyone.
Charm bracelets are the top class wrist jewelry pieces. They became part of the noble classes'
closet after being popularized by Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom.
Charm bead bracelet jewelry was then developed by Trollbeads, a Danish company with
headquarters in Copenhagen. Still, the most famous bracelets come from Italy.
Italian charm bracelets are crafted with stainless steel or gold and some of them have
interchangeable modular characteristics allowing owners to modify the look every day, with
different clothing and style.
Bracelets will continue to be a key jewelry adornment in the daily habits of women and men,
throughout the world.
