Personalized & Custom Name Bracelets

A name bracelet sits where you can read it yourself, which is the difference from a necklace. Cut to your spelling on figaro, paperclip and fine chains, some with a heart charm alongside — 18K gold vermeil at 3 microns over solid sterling silver, or gold plated. Gold, silver and rose gold, from $48.

Name Bracelet Questions

How loose should a name bracelet be?

Loose enough to rotate, tight enough not to clear your hand — about one finger between chain and wrist. Name bracelets have one specific problem: if it spins too freely the plate ends up underneath your wrist, unreadable. Slightly snugger than a plain chain keeps the name facing up.

Can a name bracelet be resized?

The chain, yes — links come out or an extender goes in, and it's a quick job. The nameplate itself can't change. If you're between sizes, buy the longer one and have links removed rather than trying to add later.

Can you wear it every day?

Wrists take more punishment than necks — hand cream, sanitiser, desk edges, keyboards. At 3.0 microns of gold over sterling silver these hold up far better than the 0.5 micron plating typical elsewhere, but a name bracelet worn daily will show wear on the plate's high points before a necklace would.

Whose name should be on it?

Yours, a child's, or several children's — those are the versions people keep. A partner's name on a bracelet is more visible day to day than on a necklace, which makes it a bigger commitment than it looks.

Can it be returned?

Personalized pieces can't be returned for a change of mind, here as everywhere. Check spelling before confirming. Faulty work or a mis-cut against what you submitted is ours to correct.

How many names fit?

One on most styles, up to three on the wider plates. More than that and the plate stops curving comfortably around the wrist — a bracelet needs to follow the arm, which limits length in a way a necklace doesn't.
