Garnet of the Nile Bracelet

The Garnet of the Nile bracelet is an open, gold-coloured cuff bracelet with a large oval red stone in a serrated setting in the centre. Slide it onto your forearm and wear it with a white or light-coloured dress to make the red and gold stand out. It is designed for women dressing up as an Egyptian queen or wearing a Roman outfit for Carnival.

The finish of the gold-coloured cuff

• The bracelet is an open gold-coloured cuff with twisted edges along the top and bottom.
• In the centre is a large oval, faceted red stone in a serrated gold setting.
• On either side of the large stone is a smaller round red stone in its own setting.
• Embossed floral motifs run along the entire bracelet.
• The composition is 85% iron and 15% acrylic.
• The jewellery is made by Boland and designed for women.

Why a red stone on a gold cuff instead of gold alone?

The Garnet of the Nile bracelet combines gold with a bright red stone, and this colour contrast is more eye-catching than a cuff with only embossed details. The name refers to garnet, a deep red gemstone, and the Nile, the river along which ancient Egypt lay. Wide gold bracelets with coloured inlays were part of the jewellery worn by the Egyptian elite. If you want a single piece of jewellery that is also recognisable from a distance, choose this model with a stone. If you are already wearing a lot of coloured jewellery, a plain gold cuff will keep the look more understated.

Makeup, glasses and gold to complement your Egyptian look

A long black eyeliner that extends towards the temple, combined with blue eyeshadow, complements the Egyptian style of the bracelet. A wide gold collar repeats the gold around your neck, so the cuff does not stand alone. Choose other jewellery without different coloured stones to keep the red stone the centre of attention. If you are going out on the streets for Carnival during the day, a pair of sunglasses with a gold frame will suit the look.

Order the Garnet of the Nile bracelet and give your Egyptian or Roman outfit for Carnival a red centrepiece on your wrist.
