Back from when jewelry was a woman’s fortune up until now, bangles have always been elements of richness in the Middle Eastern history. Arab women are known for the thick bracelets that adorn their wrists to reflect the beauty of the region’s rich culture and heritage. However today, they are embracing modern takes on this iconic piece thanks to the creativity of our favorite jewelry houses.

Ornaments from the past still find their way to contemporary collections. Think the charming serpent, the geometry-inspired designs and the evil eye that holds a meaningful place in the Arab world. These are nothing but a few examples of designs that still revive the image of true Arab women’s golden wrists in our memory, as the offerings keep getting more charming than ever. If you’re looking for a piece that reminds you of traditions from the past while suiting your modern lifestyle, head to the Photo Gallery and take a look at the list of bangles we carefully curated for you!
