I have seen many pearl bracelets around the world, but was wondering if pearl bangles are just India-specific?
In India, they usually come in pairs and are made using pearls with either yellow gold or silver or yellow gold-plated silver. Here're a couple of samples:

I guess they are not considered practical as they knock around a lot and jingle on the wrists, but they do look pretty.....in an Indian way, maybe![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
