This is a bracelet bending block to bend flat strips of metal into cuff-style bracelets. The larger circles are for a wider, bend in the middle and the smaller circles are to introduce the bends on the ends to wrap around the wrist.
I made this block the same dimensions as a few you can find on Amazon. Obviously it's quite large. For the project I just did the band was only ½" wide so I made a much smaller one to save on printing time. If you're doing a small bracelet as opposed to a wide cuff you might want to make all items a bit shorter to avoid printing the whole thing.
You can find videos of this process on YouTube.

Filament type probably isn't important as it only needs to withstand loads from the walls, which are designed purposefully thick.
Sanding/Smoothing
It might be necessary to sand or otherwise smooth the surface of the dies. Softer metals might pick up an imprint of the layer lines if they're pronounced.
