Charm Bracelets For Every Style Preference

Charms have been worn in one form or another since the dawn of man. Prehistoric men would wear bones, animal teeth, or shells as jewelry. As time went on, charms became status symbols or bragging rights. They became fashionable to wear just for the sake of beauty in the 20th century, and then became a fad around the 1950s. The popular way to wear charms today is on a charm bracelet that shows the history or personality of the person who wears it. No matter what your style or budget, there is a charm bracelet out there for you.
For the person who likes classic jewelry, there is the traditional charm bracelet. This bracelet consists of a base made up of silver, gold, or platinum links that is strong enough to hold a number of charms. There is a seemingly endless variety of traditional charms for such a bracelet. These charms normally clip on or are attached with a separate link and then dangle down from the bracelet.
Some people might not like the tinkling noise and risk of snagging their bracelets on something. They may like clean lines and simplicity. For someone with minimalistic tastes, there is the Italian charm bracelet. These are made up of square links that act as the charms themselves. Each link has a picture or symbol on it that represents some detail or occasion, just as traditional charms do. You can buy a starter bracelet that has blank links and then replace them with actual charms as you go along.

Some people want a charm bracelet that is more modern and has flair, style, and color. There is now another option for this type of fashion-forward wearer. The Pandora bracelet has something for everyone and in every price range. There are bases made of silver or 14K gold, and there are cotton cords and leather bracelets. Someone who is edgier or more sporty might prefer something like the cotton cord. A person who likes to stick with tradition but still wants the flair of a Pandora bracelet can choose a gold or silver base.
Pandora charms are made of gold silver, Murano glass, and precious gems. They come in a myriad of shapes and sizes, ranging from beads to detailed occasional charms. You can customize your bracelet to fit your lifestyle and personal tastes.
