Such a wonderful and traditional, thin solid sterling silver, snake eyes, West Indian bangle bracelet! This beautiful Jamaican bracelet (also called a “Bayra”) has a uniquely engraved, 1 5/8-inch pattern design on each side of the solid silver and has two dotted pointy ends on the tips. The beauty of Bayras is that it is pliable and can open and close to securely surround almost every wrist. West Indian Bangle Bracelets are a culturally significant tradition of the Caribbean Islands in order to pass on the West African and East Indian heritage, and to symbolize union, love and strength.
