wrong question*
"anchos" is an adjetive, plural. It is not a noun, and it is not jewelry. You might have seen "anchas pulseras" (wide braceletes) por example.
But, definitively, the question is wrong.

Michele Fauble
: Yes, as an adjective 'ancho' is wide, as can be verified by consulting any Spanish-English dictionary. The asker has specified an entirely different context.

: Estoy de acuerdo con Michel. Es un sustantivo. Y un enigma. Creo que pertenece a las culturas pre-incaicas.
