Bracelets

Projection, engraved or beaded: picking your style

The choice usually comes down to how visible you want the meaning to be. Engraved bangles and name bars wear their message openly. Photo projection bracelets hide a real picture inside a single stone — invisible on the wrist, revealed when you shine your phone torch through it. Beaded designs in volcanic stone and crystal carry that same photo stone within a more textured, casual band.

Built for wrists that do things

Bracelets take more knocks than any other piece of jewellery, so materials matter. The range uses stainless steel, copper alloy, braided leather or 925 sterling silver, with natural stone beads on many men's designs, and adjustable slider or braided rope closures on casual styles so one size fits a spread of wrists without a clasp fight.

For him, for her, for both of you

Men's styles run darker and chunkier — volcanic stone beads and braided bands; see personalised men's bracelets for the full edit. Matching sets, like the dragon and angel wing split-heart pair, are designed to be divided between two people; the couples bracelets collection gathers every matching design in one place.

Getting the size right when it is a surprise

Adjustable braided and slider styles are the safe pick when you cannot measure. For fixed chains, wrap a strip of paper snugly around the wrist, mark where it overlaps, and add roughly a finger's width of ease. Buying in secret? Measure a bracelet they already own from end to end instead.

Care that takes thirty seconds

Slip your bracelet off for swimming, showers and sport, wipe silver parts with a dry soft cloth after wear, and keep leather bands away from water entirely. Curious how the picture actually gets inside the stone? Read how photo projection bracelets work for the simple version.
