In a world of too many choices, finding the perfect piece of jewellery is not always easy. And it is not easy to pick just one or two pieces for your jewellery collection.
The truth is that there are different ways to personalise jewellery, including rings, pendants, necklaces, and bracelets. We will focus on bracelets in this blog and give you tips to find your own personalised bracelets.
So, what must you keep in mind when shopping for bracelets, for you or as a gift?
- First, know the style.
Some of us love to wear dainty and delicate-looking bracelets with a thin gold chain and one or two charms. Others like larger chunky bracelets that cuff their wrists. Whether it is for you, a friend, or a loved one, you ought to know the preferred style before looking for that perfect personalised bracelet. It will help you narrow your options and find something you’ll love to wear.
- Know the different types of personalised bracelets.
Within the personalised bracelets category, there are different types. For instance
Plain gold bracelets are not plain in design or style; they are made in yellow, white, or rose gold and without any gemstones. They still have room for personalisation with a name, initials, or a message, such as the Modest Personalised Gold Bracelet or the Lattice Personalised Gold Bracelet.
Charm bracelets are gold bracelets that have charms hanging from them. You can have one or more charms and collect them as you go along whenever the whim takes you. The charms can be anything from your favourite symbols, names, or initials. Charm bracelets are a fun way to personalise your jewellery. If you like music, you can get the Neeti Melody Gold Charm, or if your friend loves to dance, you can get her a Shakti Naach Gold Charm. These charms can be added to your alphabet bracelet without taking away the beauty or the style.
Evil eye bracelets can also be personalised. They have a black or blue stone in the middle in the shape of an eye to protect the wearer from negativity. You can add it as a charm or make it part of the name. The Evil Eye Personalised Gold Bracelet is a fine example of this type.
You have surely seen mangalsutra bracelets with black beads and a gold or diamond piece in the centre. Married women in India traditionally wear Mangalsutra bracelets. It looks like a mangalsutra necklace but is a bracelet. However, instead of making it a mangalsutra, you can use the same black-beads design and have room to add a personal touch, like a full name or initials. A bracelet like the Eternal Infinity Personalised Diamond Bracelet has all the elements – black beads, the infinity symbol with tiny diamonds, and yellow gold, making it a stunning piece of wristwear.
Open-ended bracelets like the Norena Diamond Bracelet and the Morica Diamond Bracelet make it easy to slip on and will fit the wrist as loosely as you want, and still dazzle the eye.
Adjustable bracelets can be personalised, too. The Sleek Diamond Adjustable Bracelet would grow with you even if you bought it as a teenager.
Personalised bracelets can be simple or complex and are a great way to express your personality. We will move on to the next tip to help you find the perfect personalised gold bracelet.
- Consider the wearer.
When shopping for a gift, think about the recipient’s style and what they would like. And if it is for you, choose the one you love. A personalised gold bracelet is personal by definition, so make sure it holds special meaning. Getting yourself a gold bracelet with your initials or your friend’s initials in the language of your choice can be pretty simple. The Sha Akshar Gold Bracelet with a single pearl will mean a lot to someone who speaks Hindi, just as the artist in you will love wearing the Artsy Gold Alphabet O Bracelet.
- Consider the chain and size
Bracelets can have a linked chain, a tube, or a beaded chain. The Radiant Lines Diamond Chain Bracelet has a linked chain joined by a clasp, whereas the Shining Stars Diamond Bracelet in rose gold has two types of links in addition to the tube with gold and diamond stars in the centre.
Size does matter. Some have slender wrists, and others have broader ones. If you want the bracelet to stay a part of the collection throughout your lifetime, you may want to look at adjustable bracelets. It is even more important to consider measuring the wrist if you buy it as a gift. After all, it must fit and be comfortable. It is a simple step; all it needs is a thread or measuring tape. Some bracelets work like bangles and will be slipped over your fist, while others have a clasp, making them easier to wear. Bracelets like the Cluster Diamond Adjustable Bracelet will be a great choice as they can fit any wrist. Adding an initial charm to personalise it is no hardship either.

Gold jewellery of any kind requires some thought as it must be Hallmarked gold, and making it a personalised piece needs a little more attention.

Buying personalised gold bracelets is as personal as it gets. Step into CaratLane or browse online to go through all their designs. Then, keeping the above tips in mind, you should be able to pick the one that says it’s yours for life. And when you are at it, you can pick one or two more and have enough variety to change your look now and again.
