Bracelets

Elegant bracelet on a thin woman's wrist - what can be more exciting?

The first jewelry bracelets appeared long before our era, even in the Bronze Age, when human hands became skilled enough to make jewelry, and women have already begun to appreciate beauty.

Thus, in the Indian tribes, women wore wrists braided from bright leather braids, decorated with stone, shells, feathers and bone. At first, bracelets were considered an amulet, protecting the life of their mistress from dark forces and diseases. But his aesthetic function was evident: no matter what the bracelet was, he successfully emphasized the flexibility of thin female hands.

The first bracelets from metal were copper products, which appeared around the 5th century BC. And in the time of the pharaohs, gold bracelets spread in full swing. The bracelets take a special place in India. Hands of Indian beauties should be sprinkled with several thin bracelets that ring and shimmer with all colors during the famous national dances. Incidentally, in India, the bracelet is indicative of the woman's marital status: the bride receives a gift of ivory bracelets, and the future mother - a silver bracelet, which is replaced by a bracelet of shells on the 7th month of pregnancy.

Of course, now the status of the bracelet has outgrown from the amulet in a refined accessory, an integral element of the female style and a sure sign of the beautiful taste of its mistress.
