Bracelet Size Guide
Wrists vary more than people expect — two sizes apart is common between friends. One measurement saves a return.
Measure your wrist
- Wrap a strip of paper or a tape measure around your wrist, just below the wrist bone, where a bracelet would naturally sit.
- Keep it snug but not tight — you should be able to slide a finger underneath.
- Mark where it meets and measure it flat in centimetres. That's your wrist size.
Then add for fit
| How you like it | Add | Feels like |
|---|---|---|
| Close | +1 cm | Barely moves. Good under sleeves and for stacking. |
| Comfort | +2 cm | Sits at the wrist bone, moves a little. Most people want this. |
| Loose | +3 cm | Slides down the hand. Good for chunkier chains. |
So a 16 cm wrist worn for comfort wants an 18 cm bracelet.
Bangles are measured differently
A bangle has no clasp, so it has to pass over your hand. Press your thumb into your palm as if putting one on, and measure around the widest part of your hand — across the knuckles, with the thumb tucked. That measurement, not your wrist, is what has to fit.
Our bangles are hinged with a click clasp, which means they open and don't need to clear your knuckles.
Stacking
Three is the number that looks deliberate. Mix widths rather than matching them — one slim, one engraved, one with movement. Keep them the same fit so they sit together instead of sliding over one another, and mix gold with silver on purpose.
Our sizes
Most Veneris bracelets and bangles are one size, designed to fit a wrist of roughly 15 to 18 cm. Chain bracelets in the Edit are adjustable.
Piece-by-piece measurements are being added to each product page. If you need the exact size of something before ordering, write to us and we'll measure it.
Between two sizes?
Go up. A bracelet slightly loose still wears well; one that's slightly tight doesn't get worn at all. And you have 30 days to change your mind.
