What is an open bracelet called?
An open bracelet is called a cuff bracelet. The name comes from the fact that this type of bracelet is typically worn right at the wrist, where the cuff of a shirt would normally sit. Cuff bracelets have been worn for thousands of years. Anthropologists and archaeologists have discovered ancient cuff bracelets produced by Maya, Egyptian, Greek, Chinese and Roman people.
