Antique, Vintage & Preloved Bracelets & Bangles
Bracelets and bangles are often grouped together, but they can feel quite different on the wrist. Antique and vintage examples range from fine Victorian link bracelets and hinged bangles to Art Deco diamond pieces, charm bracelets and heavier mid-century designs. Here you’ll find pieces in gold, sterling silver and platinum, alongside pearl, diamond and coloured gemstone styles from different periods.
Fit is particularly important with wrist jewellery. A bracelet usually has a little movement, while a rigid or hinged bangle needs to sit comfortably over or around the hand and wrist, so I include the length or internal measurements wherever possible, along with the clasp, safety chain, hallmarks and materials. If you enjoy looking more closely at those marks, the hallmark guide explains what they can tell you about an older piece.
