History

The brand Nomination became known for its series of bracelets, which could be customized and personalised. The bracelet consisted of replaceable pieces that could be picked up and then modified. In the 1990s, American tourists noticed the style and brought it back to the United States where the fashion caught on.[1] The original Nomination bracelets were made of lightweight stainless steel and aimed primarily at young women, although the company also released models for men. The typology of jewels is known in other parts of the world with the English name "Italian charm bracelets".
