armlets

Upper arm jewelry

Armlets are bands or bracelets worn around the upper arm, typically as ornaments or decorations.

They have been used across many cultures throughout history, from ancient Egyptian jewelry to ceremonial regalia.

Unlike bracelets, which encircle the wrist, armlets sit higher on the arm and may be rigid bands or flexible coils.
