Adjustable bracelets

Our adjustable bracelets are made to fit each size between 15 and 19 cm in circumference.

Any size above or below this range needs to be custom made upon request.

Most of our bracelets come with an extender chain, so they can be adjusted to the desired size. It is particularly useful if you'd like to gift our bracelets or simply if you don't know your size.

 If you need a specific size, or/and if you'd like to remove the extender chain, you can simply contact us. Because we manufacture most of our products ourselves, custom sizes are available on request. Please see our custom size section below or contact us for more information.

Bangles bracelets

A bangle is essentially an inflexible or rigid bracelet that needs to slide over your hand every time you put it on or take it off. Below are the two basic bangle types that you will come across.

Open bangles

Open bangles come with a gap in its circumference which allows you to easily slip them on. Some open styles are also semi-adjustable.

Next, lay the string or piece of paper flat and measure it to where you've made the mark to find your wrist size and note it down.
