Selecting a silver bracelet

A solid sterling silver bracelet is a beautiful piece of jewellery that can be worn for many years with pride. There are many styles of silver chain that are suitable for a bracelet from the very fine and feminine to thick chucky chains for men that are rugged and masculine.

Men will usually not have a chain thinner than around 7mm and more frequently a bracelet of around 9 to 10mm will be quite suitable. The length of the bracelet should be about the measurement of the wrist plus and extra 2 or 3cm, depending on how far onto the hand you wish the bracelet to fall.

The ladies also have the option to change the clasp of their bracelet to one with a bit more character. Filigree padlocks, either convex or flat are very fancy and create a new look from that of a standard clasp. Chunky bolt ring clasps look great on a heavier silver bracelet.
