Among the earliest button collectors were young girls of the late
1880's who sought buttons for charm strings. They collected with a
very specific motivation. The goal was a thousand buttons on a
string and there are several explanations of this magic number.
One has it that when the string was completed, Prince Charming would come to claim the girl for his bride. Few completed strings have been found. This is the origin of the charm bracelet.
In the Art Deco era, bracelets were a key accessory. The wearer usually flaunted them with three or four on each arm.
