Frequently Asked Questions

All You Need to Know About Gold Bracelets

What styles of gold bracelets are available?

Bracelet Styles

Plenty of options. Link bracelets are flexible and comfortable for daily wear. Bangles are more rigid—you slide them on over your hand. Cuffs are open-ended and adjustable. Tennis bracelets are set with diamonds all the way around. Charm bracelets let you add pieces over time. Pick what fits your life.

  • Chain Link: Comfortable, easy to wear
  • Bangle: Solid or hollow, slips on
  • Cuff: Open design, adjustable
  • Tennis Bracelet: Line of diamonds or gems
  • Charm Bracelet: Add pieces that mean something
  • ID Bracelet: Engravable plate
How do I find the right bracelet size?

Getting the Size Right

Wrap a tape measure around your wrist, then add half an inch for a snug fit or a full inch for more room. Most women are 6.5-7.5 inches. Most men are 8-9 inches. Bangles need to fit over your hand, so they work differently—measure across your knuckles.

  • Measure at the thinnest part of your wrist
  • Add half an inch for snug
  • Add an inch for looser fit
  • Women usually 6.5-7.5 inches
  • Men usually 8-9 inches
What gold purity is best for bracelets?

Which Karat?

14K is usually the best call for bracelets. Your wrist takes a beating compared to your ears or neck, so the extra durability matters. 18K is fine for special occasions when you'll be more careful with it. 10K is the toughest and most affordable if you just want something reliable.

  • 14K: Sweet spot for everyday wear
  • 18K: Nicer color, save for special events
  • 10K: Toughest, most budget-friendly
  • Think about how you live
  • Higher karat means softer gold
Can gold bracelets be worn every day?

Daily Wear

Good gold bracelets are meant to be worn. Pick something sturdy if you're active—thicker links hold up better. Take it off for anything that might damage it: gardening, sports, heavy lifting. Give it a quick clean now and then, and check that the clasp is still solid.

  • Sturdy links for active lifestyles
  • Remove for rough activities
  • Keep it away from chemicals
  • Clean regularly
  • Check the clasp occasionally
How do I care for gold bracelets?

Taking Care of It

Clean your bracelet every week or two with warm water and mild soap. Dry it completely. Store it somewhere it won't get scratched or tangled. Skip the chlorine—pools and hot tubs aren't good for gold. A professional clean once a year keeps it looking new.

  • Soap and water, then dry thoroughly
  • Soft cloth to polish
  • Store separately from other jewelry
  • Avoid pools, bleach, harsh chemicals
  • Professional cleaning once a year

Buyer's Guide

18K Gold Chains Buying Guide

18K gold contains 75% pure gold—the highest practical purity for jewelry meant to last. It's the standard for luxury pieces worldwide. Here's what makes 18K different and who it's right for.

Why Choose 18K?

18K gold offers the richest color you can get in durable jewelry:

Color: More saturated, warmer gold tone than 14K. The difference is visible.
Prestige: International luxury standard. 18K is expected for high-end pieces.
Value retention: Higher gold content holds value better long-term.
Hypoallergenic: Less likely to cause reactions due to lower alloy metal content.

The tradeoff is softness—18K scratches more easily than 14K. For everyday chains, consider whether you'll baby it.

When 18K Makes Sense

Special occasion pieces: Chains for events rather than daily wear.
Investment purchases: When gold content and resale value matter.
Skin sensitivity: If 14K causes reactions, 18K often solves it.
Luxury aesthetic: When only the richest gold color will do.
Heirloom pieces: Jewelry meant to be passed down.

For gym chains or rough daily wear, 14K's durability often makes more sense.

Chain Styles in 18K

18K gold's softness affects which styles work best:

Best choices:
- Cable chains (simple links, less stress points)
- Box chains (sturdy construction)
- Wheat chains (flexible, distributes stress)

Proceed with caution:
- Very thin chains (more fragile in 18K)
- Hollow chains (can dent easily)
- Complex link styles (more points for wear)

Heavier, solid chain constructions hold up better in the softer 18K alloy.

Price Expectations

18K chains cost more because they contain more gold:

Expect to pay roughly 30-50% more than equivalent 14K chains. The premium varies by:
- Gold market prices
- Chain construction (solid vs. hollow)
- Manufacturing complexity
- Brand premium

Weight for weight, 18K is more expensive. But you're getting significantly more gold—75% pure compared to 58.3% in 14K.

Care and Maintenance

18K requires more careful handling than 14K:

Storage: Keep separate from harder jewelry that could scratch it.
Wearing: Remove for activities that risk damage.
Cleaning: Gentle cleaning with warm soapy water. Avoid ultrasonic cleaners for delicate chains.
Professional service: Annual inspection to check for wear on clasps and weak points.

With proper care, 18K chains last generations. Without it, they show wear faster than 14K.

Authenticity Verification

Hallmarks: Look for "18K," "750," or "18KT" stamps.

Color test: 18K has a noticeably richer yellow than 14K when placed side by side.

Weight: Genuine 18K feels substantial. Same-size pieces in 18K weigh more than plated alternatives.

Price check: If it seems too cheap for 18K, question it.

Buy from reputable sources: Established jewelers stand behind their gold claims. Request documentation for expensive purchases.
