What makes a bracelet so special and different shapes

The bracelet, history, milestones and the most popular types

Anyone who thinks the bracelet is a modern piece of jewelry is wrong. Its roots go back thousands of years in history. The ancient Egyptians upgraded their wrists with the delicate braid 7000 years ago. And we even know their taste preferences.

Archaeological finds provide proof: the first bracelets were mostly 100% natural. Grasses, narrow branches and shells came together in small works of art. Gradually, the bracelet took on a nobler note. Bronze and copper were added to the jewelry trade.

The bracelet on the Greek wrist

The ancient Greeks liked to adorn themselves with cuffs - preferably on the upper and forearms. The soldiers of the Greek army especially liked it on their wrists. Wide leather and metal handcuffs adorned their uniforms. First and foremost, they served as a protective shield. The overall impression of manor was just right for the fighters.

The bracelet on the Roman wrist

The decorative leather and metal handcuffs of the Greek soldiers made an impression, especially among the Romans. It was not for nothing that they did the same as their ancient models.

The Romans also liked to decorate their wrists away from the battlefield - the more pompous the better. Gold could not be missing, just like an animal note. It is not without reason that golden coiled bracelets with a snake look were winding around the arms of the distinguished society.

The bracelet on the Chinese wrist

The ancient Chinese demonstrated at least as much attention to detail. More than 2000 years ago they refined the bracelet with elaborate patterns, inspired by nature, animals and mythical creatures. Her penchant for extravagance was also reflected in the materials. It could be the noblest of the noblest, preferably gold and jade.

The bracelet on the Indian wrist

The Indian bracelet is one thing above all: colorful, eye-catching and playful. Color is a must, zest for life is expressly desired. The Indians were also more relaxed about the material. It did not always have to be gold, silver or bronze, and metal and glass beads also had their effect.

The bracelet of European style icons

In the mid-17th century, European women made the bracelet an indispensable fashion accessory. Whether narrow ribbons, fine hoops or delicate chains - the piece of jewelry played around the trend-conscious female wrist in a wide variety of silhouettes.

Something has also changed in the number. The arm jewelry was no longer alone. He often appeared in the company of several bracelets. Cameos, medallions and engraved pendants also celebrated their triumphal march.

In the 20th century, the bracelet was more diverse and refined than ever. For the first time, inexpensive materials such as Bakelite and plastic nestled around the wrist. The bracelet became a piece of jewelry for everyone.

For the first time, the flowing jewelry was also visible on the male arm. Link gold chain with cross were neither too narrow nor too feminine for masculinity.

The bracelet and its most popular forms

The tennis bracelet impresses with pure elegance. Round with diamonds shining gem from all angles. The bracelet is not rigid and firm. Thanks to its many movable elements, it adapts perfectly to your wrist. But where does the unusual name come from?
