These new styles have been extremely popular and we decided to put together a blog post so that our customer could have a little more information and background on these bracelets. Ceramic is a very hardwearing and subtle material and ideal for jewellery making as they are comfortable to wear, easy to keep clean and come in a variety of colours and styles.

 

Stainless steel bracelets are one of the bestselling metal range of magnetic bracelets, stainless steel has so many benefits and is one of the most robust and longer lasting metals. The sleek nature of stainless steel contrasts well and when combined with ceramic it makes the bracelets stand out. Another benefit of combining the two metals is that the ceramic in the bracelet makes the bracelet lighter in feel, so if you want the benefits of stainless steel without the weight then ceramic and stainless steel bracelets are ideal. Another great benefit of ceramic bracelets are the choices in colours- which are endless from white, black, pink, red you name it and it can be done.

History of ceramic jewellery

  • Ceramic bracelets, also known as ceramic bangles or ceramic jewellery, have a long history that dates back thousands of years. The use of ceramics in jewellery and decorative arts can be traced to ancient civilizations, including the Chinese, Greeks, and Egyptians.

 

  • Ancient China: The use of ceramic materials in jewellery and accessories can be traced back to ancient China, where ceramics were highly valued for their durability and beauty. Chinese artisans created intricate ceramic bangles and beads that were often adorned with intricate designs and vibrant colours. These ceramic pieces were popular among both the nobility and the common people.

 

  • Ancient Greece: In ancient Greece, ceramic bracelets and other jewellery items were made from a type of pottery known as "terra cotta." These pieces often featured intricate patterns and were sometimes painted in bright colours. Greek ceramic jewellery was often associated with religious and cultural significance.

 

  • Ancient Egypt: Ceramics were also used in ancient Egypt to create various forms of jewellery, including bracelets. These ceramic bracelets were often adorned with hieroglyphics and symbols of religious significance, as well as colourful glazes. They were worn by both men and women and were sometimes buried with the deceased as part of burial customs.

What's the difference between a bangle and bracelet?

A bangle is usually a circular and slightly more structured and stiff style of jewellery that goes around the wrist, it is either an infinite circle or a semi-circle with a bendable closure. A bracelet is usually made with more flexibility and is either made of links, on a chain and is closed with some sort of clasp.

 

What is the meaning of the bangle bracelet?

Many different cultures had different meanings for bangles and bracelets, bracelets in the past have been worn to guard against evil spirits or the sun, to represent marital status and so much more. For example, in traditional Indian society women wear gold bangles after marriage to symbolise health, luck, and prosperity. Ancient Egyptians used bracelets for spiritual purposes and to display wealth and status. The Greek, Roman and Celtic soldiers wore cuffs to protect against sword attacks. In the 19th century bangles and bracelets became more popular and worn by more people and during the Art deco period jewellery and bracelets were the height of fashion.

Are bangle bracelets still in style?

Yes definitely bangle bracelets are a timeless classic and will always be stylish and fashionable. Bracelets have worn since 2600 BC and still remain popular to this day. In recent years there are so many different styles, materials, metals and designs of bangles and bracelets and they will continue to be popular.

What are the four 4 types of bracelet?

The four most popular styles of bracelets are, bangle bracelets, charm bracelets, link bracelets and cuff bracelets. However, this can change depending on the individual, the styles, the design as well as fashion and what has appeared on catwalks.

Should you sleep with a bangle on?

You can sleep with your bangle on if it is made of a pure metal like gold, silver, titanium, stainless steel or copper – however it depends on the tightness and the style of your bracelet. If your bracelet is too tight or has embellishment on it – this could cause discomfort and could also be a safety hazard too. The best thing would be to take it off at night to be on the safe side.

Is it OK to wear a bracelet on each wrist?

Yes, you can wear a bracelet on each wrist, best not to over do it but a few on each wrist can give you a pop of personality. Again, depending on your outfit or your look if you wantto go for a more sleek look then less is always more but if you want to go for more of a colourful and vibrant vibe then don’t hold back.

Which wrist do you wear a bangle?

This depends on what suits you, you can wear a bangle on the wrist that doesn’t have a watch on, or if you don’t wear a watch then wearing a bangle on the wrist of your non dominant hand would be more comfortable. For example, if your dominant hand is your right hand, then you will have to wear your bracelets on the left and vice versa.

How many bracelets should a woman wear?

There is no rule as to how many bracelets a woman should wear, it depends on your personality, your style, your outfit and your occasion. If you are going to a formal place for work or social then less is always more but if it is a casual outing or celebration then we feel that you should wear as many as you want to. The decision really is a personal one.

 

Pros:

  1. Durability: Ceramic bracelets are known for their durability and resistance to wear and tear. They are less likely to scratch, tarnish, or corrode compared to many other materials, such as metal.
  2. Hypoallergenic: Ceramic is hypoallergenic, making it a great option for people with metal allergies or sensitive skin. You're less likely to experience skin irritation or allergic reactions when wearing ceramic bracelets.
  3. Lightweight: Ceramic is a lightweight material, which means ceramic bracelets are comfortable to wear, especially for extended periods. They don't feel heavy on the wrist.
  4. Versatility: Ceramic bracelets come in a wide variety of styles, designs, and colours. They can be crafted to suit various fashion preferences, from elegant and minimalist to bold and colourful.
  5. Temperature Resistance: Ceramics can withstand a wide range of temperatures, so you don't have to worry about your bracelet getting damaged in extreme heat or cold.
  6. Easy to Clean: Ceramic bracelets are relatively easy to clean and maintain. You can usually wipe them with a damp cloth to keep them looking pristine.

 

Cons:

  1. Limited Adjustability: Many ceramic bracelets are not adjustable, which means you need to ensure that you choose the right size. However, ours come with a link adjustment tool and pins so that you can adjust them to your liking without having any issues.
  2. Slight cracking in excessive heat: Although ceramic is strong, it can be brittle. Excessive force or sudden temperature changes, like exposure to extreme cold followed by extreme heat, can cause ceramics to crack.
  3. Slightly more expensive: High-quality ceramic bracelets can be slightly more expensive, especially those with intricate designs or made by renowned artisans. However the extra slight cost is worth having the beautiful bracelets.
