Bracelets of all kinds

A Bracelet is anything that goes around a wrist for all practical purposes.

There are many styles of bracelets, but there are only two basic categories at the start: soft styles, mostly link bracelets, and Hard styles, like Bangle Bracelets. Bangle bracelets are often made to open so they can be taken on and off. The most popular kinds of bracelets are link bracelets and bangle bracelets.

Link bracelets are the standard form of bracelets as they are the most comfortable kind of engineering used to create bracelets. Some link bracelets are covered in diamonds and colored gemstones, called tennis bracelets. These are set with diamonds or colored gems, usually edge to edge around the entire wrist circumference. Any bracelet with multiple connections, or links, is essentially a link bracelet, even though the shape and mechanisms vary wildly.

Rigid bracelets, or Bangle Bracelets, are also popular. Bangles are often hinged, but usually, only one hinge is used. They open like two sides of a circle or oval. Hanged bangles are typically more comfortable because they fit closer and are less intrusive to the wearer.

Bracelets come in all manner of decorative styles, from traditional to modern, and in any number of unique configurations of pattern or materials.

The only bracelets recommended to avoid are the ones used by the police.
