  • I would say "yes". As far as I know this style was very popular in Bulgaria, but perhaps also in the wider region, the Balkans, Greece?

  • They use this in Macedonia.. from ancient times very little has changed and some can be considered quite old.. 

  • funny i wrote something else and this came out? odd. they also used these in Bulgaria but my comment didn't come out as I had written it.. 

  • Thank you Betty and Linda. It is so much easier to search for more information when you have the country of origin. I did not buy this one but can now learn some more. A quick look on ebay showed me there seems to be a lot of these bracelets available. I would guess this one be late 19th century  or early 20th century but it's hard to tell considering Linda's remark that little has changed.

  • Yes, I have seen these on ebay too. I thought they were quite ugly. 

  • Well Cordelia, taste may differ. I quite like it, big and bold.

  • :) Ah, of course! I was very intrigued by them and found them on the antiquities sections of ebay

  • I like those, since they have been made over so long a time! The design is stricking!
