A Guide to Buying Affordable Gold Bangles in Sydney

Unlike traditional chain bracelets that can be adjusted to different lengths to fit your wrists perfectly, bangles are solid and inflexible. They cannot be elongated or shortened in any way, which is why you should always make sure that the piece you buy fits through your fist just right before you make your final purchase. Trying on bangles is the best and easiest way to measure a bangle and ensure its fit. However, this is simply not possible when shopping online. A good way to make sure that the bangle you are buying will fit perfectly is to measure the diameter of the widest part of your hand when making a fist. An easier way would be measuring perfectly fitting bangles and comparing them against measurements that the retailer provides.

Bangles come in different styles. There are clasp-less bangles, which are basically solid circle bracelets you put on by sliding the piece through your hand, as well as claspon bangles, which are often made out of two semi-circular metals, joined together by a hinge and clasp.

Bangles are typically stand-alone accessories, although most women love to mix and match multiple pieces together to create a stylish look. There are bangles made out of solid metals, like silver, brass, and gold. Sometimes, they come with gemstone adornments, inlays, and pattern etchings, which add to their charm and beauty.

If gold is your base metal of choice, here are some things you should remember especially when shopping online:

• Buying gold jewellery is easy, especially when trying to determine the real value of gold in different carats. Buying the piece with the highest price tag is not always the best decision because this often means higher gold content and purity. While this raises the value of your jewellery, it reduces the durability because gold is such a soft and delicate metal. To make gold more durable, it is mixed with other metals, resulting in lower carat rating. If you are after a more durable gold bangle, a low carat option is definitely a better choice.
• Colour is also a major decision point when shopping for gold. Yellow gold is the most natural hue of organic gold, but shade isn't always uniform. Other variations include white gold (gold mixed with white metal alloy) and rose gold (gold mixed with copper).
• Security is a major factor you should look for when shopping for gold bangles online. Choose a retailer with ample security features and good, authentic pieces for you to choose from.
