Bracelets have been used from the Bronze Age as symbols of political and religious power. Century after century they have been embellished with engravings and precious stones, and they changed shape - from gold and bronze rigid bracelets, to bead bracelets adorned with ivory, amber, glass and gems - and were worn on the wrist or on the upper arm.

The bracelet was the jewel mostly used during the Romantic era. It was worn both in the daytime on the wrist, and in the evening on the glove or between it and the elbow. The most original and nowadays sought after bracelets are those created during the Art Nouveau and Deco art periods, jewels which reflect the charm and sensuality of the femmes fatales who used to wear them.
