Bracelets for Women
It has been incredibly popular over the past many years to wear a bracelet, and even to wear several bracelets on the same wrist at once. This is just wonderful for those of us who make a living selling jewelry.
In fact, it doesn’t really matter whether the bracelet is made of silver, gold-plated silver, or gold. However, most people prefer to wear their bracelets in the same materials and colors.
Already, I can feel that this blog is becoming a bit more calm and balanced compared to the previous blog I wrote a few days ago.
You might be wondering if things have calmed down a bit? And no, they really haven’t, because I miss the man... I miss all the good things that were!
Additionally, we have just been closed as retailers for Pernille Corydon, and that doesn’t exactly make the day any better...
Silver bracelet
A silver bracelet is a bracelet made of 925 sterling silver, which is probably a given.
Often, when you choose a gold-plated silver bracelet, it has a very thin layer of gold applied over the silver, giving the bracelet its beautiful warm color.
Did you know that you can gold-plate an entire life-sized statue of a horse with a rider using only a single gram of gold?
That’s quite impressive, and it also shows how thin the gold layer is on jewelry, making it especially important to remove your bracelets and other gold-plated jewelry before you shower or do similar activities.
Doing so will help the color stay beautiful for much longer.
Some of the classic patterns for silver bracelets include: Venice, Bismarck, anchor facet, Figaro, panzer, round anchor, all of which are still available today.
We all probably know an older lady who proudly owns a Bismarck bracelet, usually in gold.
Over time, new designs have emerged, such as: oval panzer, Singapore, wheat, snake chain, and not to forget the ball chain. The last one can be quite annoying when it comes in for repair.
Pearl bracelet
If you’re not so keen on a bracelet in silver or gold, then you should definitely consider a pearl bracelet. Here you get a bit of nature’s forces and beauty around your wrist, which you can enjoy every day.
With a pearl bracelet, the same rules apply as with a gold-plated bracelet. It’s important to take it off when you shower or when you’re at the beach.
Especially with bracelets that have pearls strung on a thread, you need to be careful, as the silk thread can break very quickly.
There are normally two different types of pearls used for pearl bracelets: freshwater pearls and cultured pearls.
The difference between the two types lies in the luster and shape of the pearls, where cultured pearls are rounder and have a bit more shine than the others.
Additionally, freshwater pearls are (funny enough) made in freshwater, while cultured pearls come from saltwater.
There are also other types of pearls, such as Tahitian pearls, which are the most beautiful pearls of all. These pearls have a greener color and are so gorgeous that you almost have to own just one or two.
Gold bracelet
Now that you’ve heard a bit about silver bracelets and pearl bracelets, it’s time to talk about gold bracelets.
There isn’t really much to add here. The designs of a gold bracelet are nearly the same as those of a silver bracelet, except when I think about it, there are also the Musten bracelet and the Geneve bracelet.
Both of these bracelets are not made in silver, nor in gold-plated silver, which makes them a bit more exclusive. They are also both quite expensive bracelets, as they are heavy and require a lot of work to manufacture.
As you can see in the picture above, there is also nothing more beautiful than a bracelet with diamonds. Whether it has a few diamonds like the one in the picture, or it’s a bracelet with diamonds all the way around, known as a tennis bracelet, is irrelevant.
