Excerpt from Notes and Queries, Vol. 12: A Medium of Intercommunication for Literary Men, General Readers, Etc.; July-December, 1903

Bracelet. - I find this term is applied by London nursemaids to the deep wrinkle which lies between the arm and hand of a fat baby. I have never found the word used in this sense in Ulster; there we call a fat baby's wrinkles its lerks, or lurks. It was in Lincoln's Inn Fields, a few days ago, that I heard the term the bracelet used in the above sense.
