Bracelet Buying Guide
From bangles to tennis bracelets, here is everything you need to pick the right bracelet: how to measure your wrist, which styles suit which occasions, and which metal to choose.
How to measure your wrist for a bracelet
Wrap a soft tape measure around your wrist just below the wrist bone, then add about half an inch for a comfortable fit, or three quarters of an inch for a looser drape. If you are buying a gift, a standard 7-inch bracelet fits most women and 8 inches fits most men. Browse bracelet styles and check the sizing notes on each piece.
Bracelet styles by occasion
| Style | Best for | Key feature |
|---|---|---|
| Tennis bracelet | Everyday elegance | Line of stones, very secure |
| Bangle | Stacking, formal looks | Rigid, slips over the hand |
| Chain bracelet | Casual daily wear | Light, pairs with charms |
| Cuff | Statement pieces | Open design, one size fits many |
Which metal should you pick?
14K gold and sterling silver are the most practical for daily bracelets. If the bracelet holds diamonds, choose 14K white or yellow gold for a secure, long-lasting setting. Contact us for help choosing a metal that matches your other jewelry.
