Bracelets trace back to humanity's earliest adornments—20,000 years ago, tribes strung polished bones and shells as symbols of courage. In the East, jade bracelets embodied noble virtues (as recorded in The Book of Rites), while red thread knots carried romantic wishes. The West saw olive branch bracelets in ancient Greece symbolizing peace, and Victorian cameo bracelets whispering love stories. Across cultures, wrist adornments remain timeless vessels of beauty and meaning.
