I love all things delicate and sparkly - these are lovely!! Great finds and bonus to have found them during holiday sales!
My very very well loved (see how the scratches shine in the light, lol) Cartier Loves on my right arm daily, I never take these off unless it’s to clean them. Depending on my mood I’ll occasionally add to the stack because I (clearly) love stacking.
From top to bottom: RG 4 diamond, WG (didn’t ask for rhodium plating), RG. All size 16 and mostly bought before they made the size 15 which is unfortunate for my very small wrists so I deal with these going up and down my arm a fair bit. The RG has also faded off to pretty much yellow gold now, which I wasn’t enthused about but still love them nevertheless.
I love mixed metals for everyday looks! My original wedding band is RG and my engagement ring is YG.
My everyday bracelets are a 14k YG link chain and a 14k WG 1 ctw tennis bracelet. I wear them both everyday whether I base my look on WG or YG.
.
The yellow gold bracelet was ordered from a local jeweler. The tennis bracelet is from Macys. When I got married, my husband and I said we weren't going to do wedding gifts (to save money) but I could not find the right costume jewelry bracelet to wear on my wedding day, so he bought me that as a surprise But he knows at some point I want to upgrade to a bigger carat TB.
My wrist is just under 6 inches and the bracelets are a little over 6.5 inches.
I love these together on you!
Is the second picture the bracelet you were considering plating or have I got confused? It looks lovely as is and ties in well with you watch to my eye!

It is! I bought a two toned watch so I could start wearing it regularly
I recently had my local jeweller make me a sterling cuff, engraved with the Caduceus symbol on the outside & my emergency medical details on the inside. As much as I've tried for the last 6 years, my engraved Tiffany was too bulky, clunky & uncomfy for 24/7 wear & inevitably ended up back in its box. This cuff is like silk & I don't feel it at all. I've been wearing my 18ct gold 21st Birthday bracelet with it & they play nicely! Might get that one shortened as it disappears up my arm a bit & I feel they need to be more symmetrical & balanced.
@Alex T What a brill idea about the custom silver cuff with Caduceus. I could really do with something like this for myself as have unfortunately collected a few diagnoses over the years.
I do have a few lovely bracelets but very rarely wear them as they slide around quite a bit and really annoy me. I would get on much better with a cuff however!
I need to come & play in your jewellery box
Love this size! Looks perfect on your wrist. I was looking to get one about this size to stack with my 1ct something tennis bracelet .. do you mind me asking where you got this lovely piece?
