Charm Bracelets & Charms
A charm bracelet from here is put together the slow way: a solid silver or gold bracelet or chain from our London workshop, one charm to start it, and a charm a year after that, for a birthday, a Christmas, a graduation, a dog. We have made the bracelet the same way for 27 years, so a charm given in twenty years will hang beside the one given today. Every charm is sculpted by Stephen and cast in solid silver or gold; nothing is plated, nothing is bought in. Here is how to build one, in four steps, and what to give someone who already has one.
Step one
Charm bracelet or charm necklace: what the charms hang from
A bracelet is the classic; a chain is how half the people who buy charms here wear them. All are solid silver as standard, made to order in 9ct or 18ct gold, and made to take charms: the links are open enough for a charm's ring, and the clasp is a proper one.

The one we'd start with
Charm bracelet
The bracelet we have made for 27 years: delicate, adjustable, solid silver or gold, and designed from the start to be added to. It is the one to give with a single charm on it, because the point of it is what comes later.

Choose the first charm
Charms here are bought one at a time: 218 of the last 242 charm orders were for a single charm. Pick the first for what it means to them, not for what fills the bracelet.
An animal
The charms people search for by name: the sleeping cat, the polar bear, the fox, the bee, the crow. Solid silver, or gold to order.

Their dog
Whippet, dachshund, French bulldog, cockapoo: the breeds we have sculpted so far. Ask about the one we haven't.

A thing they love
A book that opens, a mortar board for a graduation, a London teacup: charms for a life, not a shelf.

Something to engrave
A skull, a heart, or a plain oval disc engraved with initials or a date: the charm that carries the message.

Step three
Have it engraved
The oval disc and the book are made to be engraved: initials, a date, a word, a line on the front and another on the back, cut by hand in the workshop. Most of the other charms take a short engraving on the back. An engraved charm is the one they keep, and it cannot be returned, so tell us the spelling twice.
Step four
We fit it before it leaves
You don't need to attach anything. Put the bracelet or chain and the charms in the same order and tell us in the note at checkout which charms go on which piece, and in what order if you have a view. The workshop fits them before dispatch at no charge, and when you add a charm later, send the bracelet back or bring it in and we fit that too, also free. Fitting is free.

The point of it
A charm a year
The bracelet's own description has promised for 27 years that you can add to it for every birthday, Christmas or special occasion, and that is how it is meant to work: one charm to start, then one for each thing worth remembering, in the same solid silver or gold, from the same workshop, so the twentieth charm matches the first. The people who do this buy a charm at a time, which is why every charm here is sold on its own and none of them is plated.
Who is the charm bracelet for?
Charm bracelet for daughter, for mom, for a new mom, for a man, for the friend who has one already: the searches, and the people they stand for.
A daughter at 18 or 21
The bracelet with one charm, chosen for her, and the promise of the rest. The gift that outlasts the birthday.
18th birthday jewelry →
Mom, or a new mom
A charm chain with a charm per child, added as they arrive, or a heart engraved with their initials.
Jewelry gifts for mom →
A man
The Ringo bracelet takes weight, and a skull or a crow sits properly on it. Men search for a charm bracelet more than they are offered one.
Jewelry gifts for him →
The one who already has one
Skip the bracelet. Their next charm is the whole gift, and we will fit it to the bracelet they have.

Charm bracelet questions
How do you put charms on a charm bracelet?
Here, you don't: order the bracelet or chain and the charms together, tell us in the checkout note which charms go where, and the workshop fits them before dispatch. Fitting is free. If you already have the bracelet, send it back or bring it in and we fit the new charm.
How many charms should be on a charm bracelet?
Start with one. The signature bracelet looks right with anything from one to about seven charms spaced along it; a 45cm chain suits one to three. Most people here add one a year, which means the bracelet is full in about the time it takes a child to grow up.
Do you solder the charms on, and what does it cost?
Nothing: we fit charms free, when you buy them and whenever you add one later. Fitting is free. Fitting is done in our London workshop, not by a courier, so a charm bought elsewhere can be fitted too if it has a ring that will take it.
Can I add charms later?
That is the point. Every charm is sold on its own, the bracelet has not changed in 27 years, and the metals are solid, so a charm added in ten years matches the first. Send the bracelet back or bring it to the Islington workshop and we fit the new charm.
Bracelet or necklace?
Half the people who buy charms here hang them on a chain rather than a wrist. A chain suits one or two charms worn every day; a bracelet suits a collection. The charms are the same, so start with whichever they already wear.
Can I mix silver and gold charms?
Yes. Most of our charms are made in solid silver as standard and in 9ct or 18ct gold to order, so a silver bracelet can carry a gold charm for the occasion that deserves it. Plated charms wear through; ours don't, which is what makes mixing them safe.
Which charms can be engraved?
The oval disc and the book are designed for it, front and back; most of the others take a short engraving on the reverse. Engraved pieces cannot be returned, so check the spelling before you order.
What are good charm bracelet gifts for a daughter, a mom, or a man?
For a daughter at 18 or 21, the bracelet with one charm chosen for her. For mom or a new mom, a charm chain with a charm per child. For a man, the Ringo bracelet with a skull or a crow. For anyone who already has one, their next charm is the whole gift.
