Our bracelets come in two styles, sized a little differently — open-backed cuffs you shape to your wrist, and clasped bracelets (link, chain, ID) that fit by length. Start by measuring your wrist, then read the section for your piece.
Measure your wrist
Wrap a flexible tape (or a strip of paper) snugly around your wrist, just below the wrist bone toward your hand — that's where a bracelet sits. Note the measurement; that's your wrist circumference and the starting point for either style.
Clasped bracelets (link, chain & ID)
These fit by length. Take your wrist measurement and add a little room so the bracelet moves freely without sliding over your hand:
- Snug — add about ½" (1.5 cm)
- Comfortable (most people) — add about ¾"–1" (2–2.5 cm)
- Relaxed — add about 1¼" (3 cm)
That total is the length to look for. A good fit slides a little on the wrist but won't pull over the wide part of your hand. Between sizes or need a fixed-length piece adjusted? Reach out — we can often add or remove links or chain.
Cuffs
Cuffs are open-backed and made to be adjusted. A cuff's size is its inside length plus the open gap at the back. The metal should wrap your wrist with the gap resting underneath — snug, but easy to slide on and off over the wrist bone.
Adjusting a cuff
Sterling can be gently shaped. To tighten, hold both ends and squeeze them toward each other a little at a time; to loosen, ease them apart the same way — slow and even, never one hard bend. Make small adjustments only; over-flexing fatigues the metal. Not sure? Reach out before forcing it — we're glad to help.
