Charm Bracelets

For those that don't know exactly what a charm bracelet is, it's a piece of jewelry that's worn around the wrist like any bracelet that carries personal charms. Charms are generally small decorative pendants or trinkets that are used to signify an important event or thing in the wearer's life. Charm bracelets can be purchased full of charms already, but generally it's a chain link bracelet with places to add the bracelet charms as you go so that they are of a more personal nature to the person wearing the charm bracelet. Many times a charm bracelet and some charms are bought by a mother who adds just one or two charm to it and then passes it on to her daughter who does the same. In this fashion the bracelet will have one or maybe two charms added with each generation and can be passed down several generations in one family.

There are of course several different companies that produce a variety of different styles and types of charm bracelets. One of the most popular types or brands is the Italian charm bracelet. The difference between Italian charm bracelets and regular charm bracelets is that Italian charm bracelets have flat, modular links that hook together to form the bracelet as apposed to having charms that hook onto the bracelet. Traditional charm bracelets dangle and jangle while Italian charm bracelets have individual pieces that are soldered flat on the surface of the link itself.
