Anyone know what this is called?

Does anyone know what that piece of jewelery on her hand is? I would like to look for one maybe on ebay or something, but I have no idea what they're called!

Thanks,
Angela

building the history and a little here... think its called a 'bracelet'

</font><blockquote><div id="quote"><font class="small">Quote:</font>

A bracelet is an article of jewelry which is worn around the wrist. Bracelets can be manufactured from leather, cloth, plastic or metal, and
sometimes contain rocks,
wood, and/or shells. Bracelets are also used for medical and identification purposes, such as allergy bracelets and hospital patient-identification tags.

The history of Egyptian bracelets is
as old as 5000 BC. Starting with
materials like bones, stones and woods to serve religious and
spiritual interests. From the National Geographic Society,
the Scarab Bracelet is one of the most recognized symbols of
ancient Egypt. The scarab represented rebirth and regeneration.
Carved scarabs were worn as jewelry and wrapped into the linen
bandages of mummies. Myth told of the scarab god, Khepri, pushing the sun across the sky.

Looks like garnet to me, a semiprecious stone. My stepmother had lots. It was popular in the 1930's and 1940's.

Cool piece of jewellery. Not my style but still cool to look at.

yeah you can always find those at renisance festivals if any are close to you. it is made with something called chain mail and you can search for chain mail bracelets or jewelry

interesting.

Hmm. I don't know what it is, but I want it.

Tks everyone. I found a really pretty one on ebay. They're called slave bracelets, and this particular one is a slave bracelet made from chain mail.
