ملاحظات	Bracelets, always worn in pairs, were part of the traditional costume in almost all Islamic cultures. In the Syrian region, which incorporated much of Palestine, Jordan and Lebanon as well as Syria itself in the 19th century, they were worn by all sections of society, from townswomen to the nomadic Bedouin of the desert. The designs vary by sector and show influences from a wide area, reflecting Syriaâs strong trading traditions and central location. Bracelets like this, made from a number of decorative chains arranged side by side to form a flat band and gathered into a solid plaque at each end concealing a pin fastening, were mainly worn by urban women, rather than tribal people. The earliest had solid metal clasps, but filigree clasps, either applied to sheet metal, like this, or of open filigree, became immensely popular with tourists in the 19th century, and are still being made in the region today. The double pin of the clasp and the pattern of little domes hinged together are both characteristic of bracelets from the Syrian region in the 19th century.

Fiziksel açıklama	Bracelet made from seven rows (one broken) of hollow domes hinged together. Each dome has either one or two horizontal wires on its back which end in loops to form the hinge with its neighbour. There is a bar across the centre of the bracelet, beaded to look like the rows of domes, to keep the rows in order, and a flat terminal at each end with a pin fitting. One of these end terminals is covered by a decorative plate of filigree scrolls. There are two pins, at either end of the hinge fastening, which are made of doubled wire which is secured by a bar inside the loop, so that they cannot fall out and be lost.
