There are so many different types of bracelets, with so many choices from gemstone jewellery to charms and plain silver items all with different names and descriptive technical terms.
To try and bring some sanity here are my top tips for buying silver bracelets on line.
Ask yourself why you have decided on a silver bracelet, is it for a special occasion. Special occasions require different types of jewellery, for a birthday we want a birthstone jewellery and for a christening we would require a plain solid silver item. Once we know why we want the item we can filter the choices much easier.
Make sure it is genuine solid silver, there are many terms used online for silver and only 925 is genuine solid sterling silver. It should be hall marked with a little 925 and just make sure that this is on the item.
On line shopping is very easy and very convenient, the fact that you have by law at least two weeks to decide on an item or return it is also good, however remember most online retailers will expect you to pay the postage to return an item you decide you don't want. To avoid this make sure you have the correct sizes and that it will fit.
Gemstones will need to be compared in the same way as before, size weight etc, however you will also need to look at clarity and grade of the stone to compare accurately. If you are buying birthstone jewellery always remember there are different rules to cleaning different gemstones and you will destroy them if you get it wrong.
Size and weight must always go together as an item could be hollow or chiselled out and whilst the same size much lighter in weight. You pay a lot for designer names and handcrafted will also always be more expensive than machine turned. However if you keep all this in mid you should make a good choice.
The tips will ensure you get the best possible value and quality for your money.
