Shamballa Bracelet

Shamballa Bracelet

Although most people see the Shamballa bracelet as just another fad, they do share a deeper significant meaning and history than one might expect. Shamballa is actually a mythical kingdom that Tibetan Buddhist believes in. It is supposed to be a symbol of enlightenment, peace, and perfection. The myth says it is located deep within Asia and is exceedingly difficult to locate. Today it is culturally tied into meditation. Virtually every Shamballa bracelet is one hundred percent unique. Every color, design, and even the style of the bracelet have individual meanings. Although many people wear these beautiful bracelets just to be fashionable, it is safe to say there are countless people who still understand the meanings and wear them for spiritual reasons. Shamballa bracelets are undeniably the latest accessory everyone should have and it was seen covering the wrists of various popular celebrities in the world of film and music.

Tennis Bracelet

Tennis Bracelet

Tennis bracelets are popular accessories for formal occasions due to their luster and sparkle. Individual diamonds (or reasonable facsimiles) are placed in square settings and then strung into a bracelet held together by a clasp. The settings and support wiring may be constructed from silver or other quality jewelry metal. The individual settings allow tennis bracelets to move comfortably while worn. Other types of jewelry that share the form of tennis bracelets are referred to tennis style. Groups of different sized stones may be used in tennis-style bracelets, but the jewelry retains the inline look of original tennis bracelets. Classic tennis bracelets tend to feature a uniform arrangement of diamonds and can be very expensive. One important element of well-constructed tennis bracelets is the safety latch. The clasp of a typical tennis bracelet depends on a springy metal latch meshing securely with a hook. Over time, this clasp style can become less reliable. Therefore, jewelry designers include a secondary security measure in tennis bracelets.

These days, bangle bracelets have become popular with stylish women in the United States and all over the world. However, the tradition of bangle bracelets is actually a very old one, dating back to ancient India. Bangles are typically made of rigid materials, and differ from bracelets in that they have no clasp. Common materials for bangles include gold, silver, glass, wood, and even plastic. In India, bangles are traditionally gold or glass and are sold in pairs, allowing women to wear one on each wrist. Bangles can be simple bands, or they can be elaborately engraved and decorated with gems. For formal ceremonies like marriages, bangles are an important part of traditional dress.In modern fashion, bangles have been embraced by people of diverse cultures. Because they range in price from a few cents to thousands of dollars (depending on the quality of the metals and gems), bangles can be enjoyed by a diverse range of users.
