    It reminds me of what some people call "torcs" worn by ancient Scandanavians. Or Romans or Celts.

    : As has been mentioned before here (and on
    : other Boards) the special golden bracelet
    : which then Princess Ingrid received from her
    : mother back in 1915 (when Ingrid became 5
    : yrs. of age) has since become a much
    : treasured duplicated gift to various Danish
    : royal princesses.
    : The one that now adorns Princess Isabellas'
    : wrist (see pic) is the one once worn by
    : Queen (then Princess) Margrethe who received
    : a bigger one as a young adult.
    : Bracelets no longer used are stored safely
    : away and thus this beautiful heirloom was
    : given to Isabella on her b'day.
    : She proudly wears it, regardless of the
    : (un-)princessly outfits she may put on in
    : daily life
