What to buy?
There are tons of gold bracelets out there and it can get a little confusing when it comes to buying one. That’s why we are sharing 8 of our favourite modern and classic styles that we think will dominate 2022.
BELCHER
Belcher links are a classic choice to wear as a chain or bracelet, especially in Britain. Always on – trend, these pieces consist of uniformly sized links which can feature intricate patterns or a smooth polished finish.
This statement style is also one of the most versatile, making it suitable for men, women, and children. Belcher bracelets are often sought after for their varying levels of thickness and size. This ranges from a thinner more feminine link to a larger and chunkier masculine style.
Tulip
If you are looking for a more unique alternative to a belcher link, people often opt for the tulip bracelet. More elegant than the belcher, these bracelets are still popular amongst both men and women. These pieces can consist of patterned or polished links and come in various sizes, thicknesses, and designs. It is also common to see these bracelets include various colours of links such as rose, white, and yellow gold.
Stars & bars
The Stars & Bars bracelet is a classic design that is a popular unisex piece. As the name suggests, these are often made from long textured or polished bar links decorated with star shaped holes. These look great in yellow or rose gold and often feature a T – bar for a timeless look. If you are looking for a stand out bracelet for daily wear, this is the one. For the more adventurous jewellery lovers it is also common to see these bracelets embedded with cubic zirconia stones.
Presidential
The presidential style is a popular design inspired by the bracelet of a Rolex watch. Often adorned with stones these pieces are popular for their iced-out hip – hop appeal. These are suitable for people looking to make a statement with a flashier look and can be seen decorating many huge rap and grime artists.
