The allure of this bracelet extends so far beyond
the reaches of simply beauty. Of course there is
an infinite amount of grace in the sinuous
braiding that delicately strangles the dazzling,
bold lines of the gold. Certainly it is timeless in
its simplicity and awe-inspiring in its radiance.
But beyond the loveliness of its appearance, this
bracelet has a spirit and presence that no
modern object of equal beauty could ever hope
to contain. The dexterous and adoring fingers of
a gold-smith two thousand years old leaps and
dances across the surface of this bracelet. The
scented wrist of a royal personage elegantly
maneuvers it through the air, rich with the sound
of his musicians, or the smell of her roasting
meats. An entire universe of passions, elegances,
and regality seem to rise from the earth with this
bracelet. Laced with its unparalleled and
completely immortal beauty is a vivid story; a
testament to the endurance of humankind’s
brilliance
