Sterling silver bracelets

Sterling silver bracelets

Sterling silver bracelets — Italian-made chain bracelets, hammered bangles, and one-of-a-kind cuffs.

Sterling silver bracelets made in Italy, from $48. Twenty-seven designs in 925 sterling silver — curb, figaro, herringbone, paperclip, beaded and clover links — in plain silver, rhodium plated, 18ct gold plated and rose gold plated finishes.

These come from family workshops in Italy with several generations of chain-making behind them. Solid 925 throughout, hallmarked, with clasps sized to the weight of the bracelet rather than the lightest thing that will do.

Frequently asked questions

What does 925 sterling silver mean?

925 means the metal is 92.5% pure silver, with the remainder usually copper for strength. Pure silver is too soft for jewellery that gets worn, so 925 is the standard for bracelets and chains. Every piece here is stamped.

How do I choose a bracelet size?

Measure your wrist with a tape measure and add roughly 1.5 to 2 cm for a comfortable fit — more if you like it loose. Each product page lists the bracelet length. A heavier link generally wants a little more room than a fine one.

Will a sterling silver bracelet tarnish?

Sterling silver reacts slowly with air and moisture and will dull over time. It polishes back with a silver cloth in a minute. Rhodium-plated pieces resist tarnish noticeably longer. Storing a bracelet in a closed pouch or box between wears slows it considerably.

How long does gold plating last?

It depends entirely on wear. Plating on a bracelet takes more contact than on a necklace, so expect it to soften at the high points first. Keep it away from perfume, hand sanitiser and swimming pools, and take it off before the gym.

Can a bracelet be shortened?

Most link styles can have links removed before dispatch. Ask when you order and we will confirm what is possible for the specific design.

Are these made in Italy?

Yes — the sterling silver bracelets in this collection are made in Italy by family workshops, then hand-picked by Natalia. They are sourced pieces rather than studio-made, which is why they sit at a different price point to our handmade Australian work.
