 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 __________________  Soon I'll grow up and I won't even flinch at your name ~Alanis Morissette |

couldnt resist researching this more SC .. found this:
</font><blockquote><div id="quote"><font class="small">Quote:</font> Vitruvius, De Architectura: THE PLANNING OF TEMPLES "...For Nature has so planned the human body that the face from the chin to the top of the forehead and the roots of the hair is a tenth part; also the palm of the hand from the wrist to the top of the middle finger is as much </div></font></blockquote><font class="post"> link: http://www.cabiz.net/heartlink/archetypes_dna.htm 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. </div></font></blockquote><font class="post"> </font><blockquote><div id="quote"><font class="small">Quote:</font> 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. </div></font></blockquote><font class="post"> link: http://wapedia.mobi/en/Bracelet#3. thanks.. that was fun : ) .. still learning jewelry

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

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.
