Triangles in Greek Jewelry

Triangles appear in ancient Greek jewelry and on vases. Goldsmiths used them to build bands of repeated shapes.

A triangle motif bracelet therefore follows a familiar Greek habit of strict pattern.

Garnets and Gold

Hellenistic goldsmiths loved colored stones. The Met owns a Late Hellenistic set of gold, garnet and agate from the 1st century BC.

Its large cabochon garnet is much like those here. This pairing of dark red with gold is classic.

Wearing and Display

Wear the Greek five charm bracelet alone or with a plain watch. The domes sit comfortably on the wrist. Wipe with a soft cloth.

A domed charm bracelet suits dressy and daily clothes. See more in our Museum Jewelry Bracelets.

About Classical Jewelry
