Bracelets by Melissa Manley

The Golden Gallery is currently showing a selection of bracelets by Melissa Manley. There are bronze twists bangles, sterling cuffs, and embossed bronze cuffs. We also have Melissa’s Viking knit bracelets in sterling for both men and women. First developed in ancient times by the Etruscans and Romans, Viking knit gets its common name from its popularity in ancient Scandinavia. It appears in Viking “hoards” or caches of buried treasure dating from 700 to around 1100AD. The true name of this type of wire weaving is “Trichinopoly”.
