Crossword Genius

Couple allowed to make wrist ornament (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bracelet

'wrist ornament' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'couple allowed to' is the wordplay.
'couple' becomes 'brace' (brace can mean a pair of something).
'allowed to' becomes 'let' (to let something happen is to allow it).
'brace'+'let'='BRACELET'

'make' is the link.

(Other definitions for bracelet that I've seen before include "Wrist, arm adornment" , "Ornamental wristband" , "Arm jewellery" , "16 [ADORNMENT]" , "Item of jewellery found in Crete lab" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times and The Sun.
