Bracelet Size Guide

Why Finding the Right Bracelet Size Matters

A bracelet is a versatile piece of jewelry designed for the wrist, crafted from materials like cords, nylon threads, or metal chain links. Much like necklaces, bracelets feature flowing designs that capture movement, create soft sounds, and reflect light off shimmering metals and gemstones. Since most bracelets come with size-adjustable clasps, finding the perfect size doesn’t require precision. However, accurate measurements ensure a comfortable and stylish fit.

Bangles and bracelets are typically worn between the wrist bone and the widest part of the forearm. Just as choosing the correct bangle size enhances its elegance, selecting the right bracelet size is essential for both comfort and aesthetic appeal. A well-fitted bracelet not only feels good but also enhances your overall look, making it the perfect accessory for any outfit.

  1. Measure your wrist size

Step 1: Wrap the tape measure around the wrist bone, so that it fits snugly without feeling too tight or too loose.

Step 2: Mark where the tape measure overlaps. This is the exact circumference of your wrist.

Note: You can substitute the measuring tape with a string or ribbon and use a straight ruler to measure the length from the point of overlap to the end.

2. Measure the length of a bracelet that fits well

If you already have a chain bracelet that fits right, this is how to substitute wrist tape measurements with the bracelet chain length:

Step 1: Open your bracelet and place it on the table

 

Step 2: Using the centimetre/inch edge of a ruler, measure the length of the bracelet cord/chain from the outer edge of the clasp to the other end of the bracelet.

 

Note: The flexible tape measurements are the circumference of your bracelet. To convert circumference to diameter, you can divide the millimeter (mm) Circumference measure by 3.14 (D = C/3.14) or use an online converter
