Popular types of bracelets

Alternative bracelets

Alternative bracelets refer to anything a little unique or that steers away from typical designs; think unusual designs and bold statement pieces.

Bangles

A bangle is a sturdier bracelet that has a gap in the design to slide onto the wrist instead of a clasp. Often chunkier in style, bangles are great for layering and can be worn on the lower wrist or even the bicep. The ideal gold bracelet for women.

Belcher bracelets

Characterised by their distinct d-shaped links, belcher bracelets are a chunkier and bolder option - this makes them a popular men's bracelet.

Curb bracelets

A classic jewellery item, the curb bracelet has a flattened chain, giving it a curbed look - hence the name! Its flat design means that it sits comfortably on the skin. A popular bracelet for women and men.

Bracelet FAQs

How to ensure a bracelet/diamond bracelet is high quality

1. Check for a hallmark - any genuine piece of jewellery will be hallmarked to show it is genuine gold, silver or platinum.

2. Pay attention to the sparkle of the diamond – it's a good indication of whether the diamond was cut with skill and therefore contributes to the item's quality.

3. Check the diamond's clarity:

Flawless (FL): There are no inclusions or blemishes visible when magnified

Internally Flawless (IF): There are no inclusions. Just blemishes are visible when magnified

Very, Very Slightly Included (VVS1 and VVS2): Inclusions are difficult to see under magnification

Very Slightly Included (VS1 and VS2): Inclusions are minor and range from difficult to slightly easy to see when magnified

Slightly Included (SI1 and SI2): Inclusions are noticeable under magnification

Included (I1, I2, and I3): Inclusions are obvious when magnified and could affect the transparency and brilliance of the gemstone

How do I know which size bracelet to buy?

Measure your wrist just below the bone with a measuring tape. It's best to add half an inch or an inch to your original measurement to suit your desired fit.

How do I look after my bracelet?

Bracelet care:

-Remove before swimming in the ocean, a pool, or in the bath because the salt or product build-up can tarnish the bracelet.

-Remove before strenuous activity where it can get damaged. For example, lifting weights in the gym can lead to damage and even losing a stone.

-Avoid applying perfumes, moisturisers, or other chemicals while wearing your bracelet. Again, products can tarnish your jewellery.

Bracelet cleaning:

- Sterling silver bracelet: Use a polishing cloth. If added strength is needed, use a specialised silver cleaner.

- Gold bracelet: Use a small amount of regular dish soap with warm water. Brush the bracelet gently to remove any build-up.

- Diamond bracelet: Use dish soap and warm water. Allow the bracelet to soak for 20-40 minutes and then brush gently.

What are the differences between each type of bracelet clasp?

Lobster clasp: one of the most common types of bracelet clasps. As the name suggests, it looks like a lobster claw and is a sturdy option often used on heavier bracelets.

Bolt ring clasp: A small lever within a circle clasp that opens and closes the mechanism. Popular for lightweight bracelets and necklaces.

Sliding clasp: Mimicking a rope tie, this clasp allows you to simply fasten and unfasten using a sliding motion. Used for casual beaded or chain bracelets.
