handlace

A handlace is a type of jewelry worn on the hand, typically consisting of a ring or rings connected by a chain or strap to a bracelet or cuff. These pieces are often designed to be decorative and can be made from various materials, including precious metals like gold and silver, as well as gemstones, beads, and other embellishments. Handlaces can vary significantly in style, from simple and delicate chains to more elaborate and ornate designs. Some handlaces may feature a single strand connecting a ring to a bracelet, while others might incorporate multiple chains or more complex arrangements. The term "handlace" itself suggests the interwoven or connected nature of the jewelry. These accessories are often worn for special occasions or as a fashion statement. The design and construction of a handlace can influence its overall aesthetic and how it is worn, with some intended to drape elegantly across the back of the hand and others designed to be more prominent.
