It’s all about Charms
admin | September 6, 2010
The craze of the charm bracelet appears to be going from strength to strength, with a lot of women now owning one. Compared to last year there has been an increase in the amount of new bracelets bought so we know even though you may have had your bracelet for a while that some women are just starting off their journey.
For those who do not know much about charm bracelets we are going to give you an insight into the top 4 charm bracelet out there, these are in no particular order and we will show you the similarities and differences between them all.
Pandora
The Pandora charm bracelet has been in the UK roughly about 11 years now, their range of jewellery is all made of sterling silver, just as is lovelinks jewellery. They have a wide range of sterling silver charms, gold charms, charms with cubic zirconia and murano glass. The price of the Pandora charm is more expensive compared to brands out there but the detail that goes into their charms can justify this. This is something Pandora prides themselves on and it is quality of jewellery. Their charms are put on the bracelet by a unique threading; this is the trademark of Pandora.
Lovelinks
The collection of lovelinks jewellery is similar to Pandora, their bracelet is a similar style however the charms are not threaded on they are pushed onto the bracelet. Lovelinks have an extensive range of murano glass charms compared to any other brand and what is great is that lovelinks have made their charms slightly bigger so that all their charms are compatible on other types of charm bracelets. The price of these charms even though they too are made out of sterling silver are slightly cheaper than Pandora and therefore make a great alternative.
Thomas Sabo
Is a different style again similar to the concept of the sweetie bracelet by Links of London, the charms are fastened to the bracelet by a clip. So creating new looks every day is extremely simple and easy to do so. This range is sterling silver too, however unlike the other charms bracelets people do find that this cannot be easily worn on a daily basis as the charms do hang off the bracelet and catch on other materials. But again each charm bracelet is always going to be down to personal preference.
Nomination
There is only one style like this on the market and this is why nomination charm bracelet is becoming increasingly popular. The make is stainless steel and therefore completely different again to all the other brands. Nomination has designed an interlocking mechanism which connects all the charms together. Their brand is all about quality and at a great price too. This is why they have used stainless steel as it keeps the price of the item down to the customer however they have used 18ct gold, enamel and semi-precious stones on their charms so you it really does look a classic and stylish piece of jewellery.
