Abstract

An articulated wristlet has a plurality of decorative elements, an equal number of elements articulated by hinges capable of being unhooked and sliding type fittings. Adjacent lateral faces of two juxtaposed decorative elements hold the decorative elements to each other when the wristlet is worn normally. The lateral faces are shaped to permit the releasing of two adjacent decorative elements when the wristlet is folded beyond a predetermined angle, this releasing permitting the removal of one decorative element of the wristlet and then the unhooking of the corresponding linking element. The arrangement permits adjustment in the length of the wristlet without the use of tools.
