In Egypt and Latin America<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

Here cuff bracelets were generally made from gold or brass, and often embellished with a geometric turquoise stone or a stone bearing an animal, such as the scarab beetle seen here, an emblematic symbol of Ancient Egypt. Other cuff bracelets were set with coloured materials, as in this second model, which is much more precious than the preceding one. In Egypt, cuff bracelets were the badges of office for Pharaohs, symbolising their power and might.<\/p>\n

Looking towards the Americas, and particularly at Mayan civilisations, cuff bracelets were very understated. They were made from a single material, generally gold or silver, and comprised geometric forms of remarkable simplicity. For those of you who value finesse and unfussiness, this is the model for you! These cuffs may have been worn by Mayan emperors, but it seems that this jewellery piece still inspires women everywhere.<\/p>\n
