When it comes to purchasing a bracelet, you want to make sure the sizing is an appropriate and comfortable fit. It is really simple to determine your bracelet sizing, and it only takes a few moments and a flexible measuring tape.
With your flexible measuring tape, measure just above (towards your elbow) the wrist bone, then make sure to add approximately ¼ inch to 1 inch (a ½ inch is average) depending how fitted you want your bracelet to be. That is then the size of the bracelet you would wear. Now it’s time to go find the perfect bracelet to wear in your size!
Check out our wide selection of bracelets that are crafted in a variety of designs and materials that you are sure to love.

Measure Your Wrist for Bangle
STEP 1: Close your fingers together and bring your thumb to your little finger (as pictured). Pretend that you were putting on a bangle
STEP 2: Using a strip of paper or tape measurements, wrap it around your hand at the widest point.. If you are using a plain strip of paper, mark your size with a pen on that paper. Then measure that paper strip with a ruler. That would be the circumference of your hand.
STEP 3: Compare your hand circumference to the chart below. Purchase a bangle with diameter that is the next size up from your actual hand measurement. Refer to the appropriate measurements in below bangle chart.

Tip: Do you want a snug or loose fit? Well, that really will vary between each individual. If you are buying a delicate bracelet with a thin chain, we suggest doing a snug fit. Most other bracelets should have a comfort fit except when buying large or thick cuffs or bangles. It’s best to buy large bracelets with a loose fit so you don’t feel like you are suffocating your wrist.
Fitting Style | Add inch(es) to wrist size |
Snug Fit | Add 1/4″ to 1/2″ |
Comfort Fit | Add 3/4″ to 1″ |
Loose Fit | Add 1 1/4″ |
