A circle of metal that lets you wear your status, faith, or freedom around your wrist.
means A decorative band or chain worn around the wrist or arm.
from From Old French 'bracelet,' a diminutive of 'bracel,' which traces back to Latin 'bracchiale' meaning 'armlet,' from 'bracchium,' the word for 'arm.' So a bracelet is, quite literally, a 'little arm-thing' — a tiny piece of jewelry that still carries the shape of the limb it adorns in its very name.
