A bracelet is more than just an accessory—it’s a statement of style, elegance, and personality. At Andy Kashtan Jewellery, we know that finding the perfect fit is key to wearing your silver chain bracelet comfortably and confidently. Here’s our guide to help you choose the right size:
1. Measure Your Wrist Accurately
- Start with a flexible measuring tape or a piece of string. Wrap it around your wrist just above the wrist bone (where you’d normally wear a bracelet) and note the measurement. If using a string, mark the point where it overlaps, then measure it with a ruler. This gives you the base wrist size to work from.
2. Decide on Your Fit
Bracelets can fit in different ways depending on your style preference:
- Snug: A closer fit that sits securely on your wrist—great for a minimalist look.
- Comfortable: A little space for movement—most people prefer this for everyday wear.
- Loose: Allows the bracelet to drape and move freely—ideal for layered styles or statement pieces.
A simple rule of thumb: add 1–2 cm (½–¾ inch) to your wrist measurement for a comfortable fit, or 2–3 cm (¾–1¼ inch) for a loose, flowing look.
3. Consider Chain Style and Thickness
The design of your silver chain can affect how it sits on the wrist. Thicker chains or those with heavier links may need a slightly longer length to drape nicely, while delicate chains can feel comfortable closer to the wrist. Keep the chain’s weight and style in mind when choosing your size.
4. Check Clasp Type
Different clasps can affect how snug your bracelet feels. Lobster clasps, toggle clasps, and magnetic clasps each have unique ways of fastening. Make sure the clasp allows for ease of use and contributes to the overall comfort.
5. Test Before You Commit
If possible, try on a similar bracelet or use a temporary string in the exact length to see how it feels. This step helps avoid surprises and ensures your bracelet will sit just right.
6. Our Tip: When in Doubt, Go Slightly Longer
It’s easier to adjust a slightly longer bracelet than a shorter one. You can always have it professionally resized if needed, but a bracelet that’s too tight can feel restrictive.
Final note...
Choosing the right size for your silver chain bracelet doesn’t have to be tricky. With accurate measurements, a clear idea of your preferred fit, and a bit of consideration for style and clasp type, you can find a bracelet that’s both comfortable and stylish. At Andy Kashtan Jewellery, we’re here to make sure your bracelet not only looks beautiful but feels perfect on your wrist.
