In the 1990s American tourists noticed the unique and interesting style of Italian charms while traveling aboard.  They brought the style back to the United States where the style quickly gained popularity.  Created in Italy, Italian charms are made up of individual pieces that are soldered onto flat, modular links.  These links are hooked together to make bracelets, watches, key chains, and other accessories. There are endless designs for the charms.  Animal and pet lovers can even create bracelets from animal Italian charms.  They can have digital, photographic images of their pets burned onto the face of the charge; thus creating animal Italian charms that are exact replicas of their beloved pets.
