What Are Italian Charms?

Italian charm bracelets originated in Italy and are now popular in the states. The charms can represent various meanings on your bracelet. Italian Charms are available in a variety of metals such as stainless steel, gold, and enameled. Italian charms can be used to create custom bracelets, watches, keychains, and necklaces.

Italian charm bracelets have brought a whole new look to the world of charms. Instead of dangling from a chain, Italian charms are soldered to flat links that pop on and off of a stretchy bracelet. Add charms to each empty slot as your collection grows, and quickly switch charms to match your mood.

Q. How do you put Italian Charms together?

Once you get the hang of it, attaching and exchanging links on your bracelet is easy.
Italian charm links are designed with a hook on one side and a hole on the other. They also utilize spring loaded clasping mechanisms so that the links can be interchanged easily.

To attach links, simply push the front side of the desired link to the left. This should open the clasp and expose the hook. From there, hook the two links together and let them lock back automatically. Most retailers can walk you through this process or even assemble a bracelet for you. Part of the fun of owning Italian charm bracelets, however, is changing the charms to fit your particular mood or occasion.

While most people can exchange links with no problem, there are numerous tools on the market for aiding one in this process. You can purchase a starter bracelet here!
