The silver id bracelet's origins are found in practicality and necessity. The original id bracelet was merely a medical "red flag" for anyone who had allergies, or a specific disease. This medical alert, as they have been called in the past, warned the medical community and the community at large, of the ills plaguing the individual. Over time, they were altered into more of a fashion statement and now accommodate sayings, memorable dates, loved one's names, or passages from religions works. The id bracelet was originally worn exclusively by men, but changes in attitudes and and trends warranted smaller id bracelets be manufactured to accommodate women. Miniature versions became fashionable in the 1990's and have now become a stock item and sold as baby bangle bracelets and even baby id bracelet for young children.
The engravable silver blank, or silver placard, may be in the shape of a rectangle, oval, round, heart, or some other fashionable shape. Most of our id bracelets are made from curb or cable silver chain from Italy, however we offer a few representatives of id bracelets in silver which are bangle bracelets with id capabilities.
