This is a stylish accessory in demand among young girls and one of the ways to emphasize the individuality of its owner.
Features
The bracelet on the shoulder has a rich history, but it is not known exactly when and by whom it was first created. Initially, it was exclusively a male adornment, but soon it smoothly migrated to the female jewelry set. The most common accessory was in Indonesia, Ancient Rome and Ancient Greece.
Interestingly, this decoration is found in almost every culture and everywhere it has a different meaning. Somewhere it was a symbol of the nobility, and somewhere, on the contrary, the mark of the poor. For the first time, such a bracelet began to be used as everyday jewelry by fashionistas of Europe at the beginning of the 19th century. The more skillful it was made and the more precious stones used in its manufacture, the more prestigious it was considered.
Currently, this bracelet is a unisex version. It is worn above the elbow, closer to the shoulder. Among women, he won special popularity due to the comfort in wearing and diversity, which is represented by modern more interesting than it attracts more and more attention from urban fashionistas. This is a great option for the summer when the girl does not need to wear things with a sleeve.
Most often, this bracelet is made from materials such as gold-plated or silver-plated metal, plastic and copper. An accessory usually does not have a dimensional grid, and it is available either in one size or dimensionless - with a special jumper, which will help if the owner wants to make it wider or narrower. For practical ladies, models from base metal are presented, and for lovers of luxury - jewelry models.
Varieties
Famous designers often include in their collections of jewelry spectacular bracelets that are worn on the forearm. The variety of the accessory is caused not only by the metal from which it is made, but also by the design and personal preferences of the customer. So, the most relevant models are:
In greek style
As a rule, such models have an elegant and thoughtful appearance to the smallest detail. It can be both elegant thin bracelets, and spectacular more voluminous options. The decorative elements are often interlacing chains, geometric shapes and drawings in the ancient style, shaped perforation, as well as Roman numerals or letters.
The refined bracelets on a shoulder in the Greek style will be suitable for decoration of a romantic and wedding image. They emphasize the beauty of women's hands, and add a little charm to the bow.
Wider and noticeable conspicuous options are suitable for decorating everyday or urban casual images.
Precious metals
If you want to emphasize a more solemn or elegant bow, then it is best to opt for a designer jewelry bracelet. Most often it is made from such precious materials as silver or silver with a gold-plated coating.This kind of jewelry made from pure gold is not practical, because the accessory is held on the hand as a result of fixing and pressure, and this metal is rather soft and easily deformed.
Often, silver bracelets on the shoulder are decorated with natural stones and have a composite composition in several “curls” around the arm. Thus, the decoration will not only be fixed on the forearm more securely, but also look stylish.
This is the best option for images in the style of boho, as well as formal official events.
In the form of a snake
This is the most common design for a bracelet, which is attached to the shoulder. He survived to the modern world of fashion, going through the history of many cultures. Often at the excavations in the tombs of Egypt still find jewelry, which depicts a snake. Such accessories not only look interesting enough, but majestically and in a sense even “dangerous”, which so attracts many young girls in it.
Variations of the concept can be many. Almost every successful jewelry designer considers it his duty to provide customers at least one model in the form of a snake.
Stylists recommend the use of similar decorations in the youth style of grunge, as well as in seductive beach bows.
Alternative - mehendi
In the summer, many girls, in order not to bother with the everyday choice of accessories for their bow, make mehendi on the skin - painted with henna. The forearm is one of the popular areas for this. The pattern of the drawing can be different and prepared both by the master himself and made by using a special henna-based solution. This tattoo can hold on the skin for up to a month and, if necessary, it can be updated.
Since the pattern does not contain any semantic load, such a "bracelet" is quite versatile and convenient - made and forgotten. A great option for women with an active lifestyle.
