How to Make Sure Your Bracelet Will Fit

The best way to check the fit is to measure a cuff bracelet you already own that fits you well, then compare those measurements with the bracelet in this listing.

If you do not have a cuff bracelet to compare, measure your wrist where you would normally wear the bracelet.

Use a strip of paper about half an inch wide and wrap it around your wrist, over the wrist bone. It should sit comfortably against your skin, not too tight and not too loose. Mark the spot where the paper overlaps, then lay it flat and measure from the starting end to the mark. This will give you your wrist circumference.

For the best fit, choose a cuff bracelet with measurements close to your wrist size, so only a small adjustment is needed.
