BRACELET SIZE GUIDE
(EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW)
Bracelet sizing is essential because how appealing the jewelry will look on you depends on how well it fits. There are different bracelet types, and some have clasps that make the size adjustable, and others have links that you can remove for a smaller size.
Your correct bracelet size will depend on the bracelet type because each type comes with its specific size recommendations and allowance for simple adjustments.
Not sure of your bracelet size?
Or maybe you know your size already but need more information; this guide will help you find your perfect bracelet size.
Standard bracelet sizes for women and men
The industry standard bracelet size for women is generally between 7 inches and 7.5 inches (18 to 19 cm), with 7 inches being the most common in women’s jewelry. This bracelet size will sit nicely between the wrist bone and the base of the hand.
The standard size for men is usually between 7.5 inches and 9 inches, 8 inches being the most common length.
Some wrist sizes differ from the standard sizes, and women’s bracelet sizes are categorized in the chart below. If you are between sizes, we recommend that you go for the bigger size.

How to determine your bracelet size
The steps below will guide you through measuring your wrist size and determining your corresponding bracelet size:
Use a flexible measuring tape; if you don’t have one, a piece of paper, ribbon, or cord will suffice. Wrap it tightly around the spot where you would wear the bracelet (or at the wrist bone).
If you are using paper, ribbon, or cord, mark the spot where the two ends meet with a pen or pencil.
Measure the length with a ruler. This is your wrist size and not your bracelet size. Add approximately ¼ to 1 inch to get your estimated wrist size.
To get your bracelet size, refer to the bracelet size conversion chart below.

Bracelet fitting style
Deciding how you like to wear your bracelets will help you measure your wrist more accurately, and this will vary based on the individual.For example, if you want your bracelet to be snug or tight on your wrist, you will add less than ¼ of an inch to your wrist measurement for the best fit. The more you add to the size, the looser your bracelet will be. If you don’t want to feel uncomfortable or like you are suffocating your wrists, we suggest getting a loose fit.
Follow the guide below for measurements of different bracelet fitting styles.
