Silver has always been highly valued as a magical
metal of the Moon possessing certain mystical properties. Our ancestors
believed that silver can prevent and cure various diseases, save from harm, ward
off evil, vampires, etc. Centuries later, scientists confirmed that silver is
really remarkable for its pronounced disinfectant and antibacterial properties.
This is probably the reason behind the never fading demand for silver jewelry.
One of the fashion trend that never or will never
be
outdated are the silver jewelries such as silver bracelet, silver
earrings and
silver rings. They come in various styles and designs to fit each
personality
of a person as well as for different gender. They are classic pieces of
silver
jewelry that really stands out from high street offerings. Perfect for
day or
evening wear, you can never have too much silver jewelry in your
collection. Silver
bracelets are as ancient as any jewelry: archaeologists have found them
at
sites in what was once the centre of the ancient world. Antiques shops
abound
with them, whether from the Victorian era or the Arts and Crafts
Movement.
Silver bracelets go well with any kind of clothes and suits any
occasion.
Crafted in elegance and uniqueness, silver bracelet is a top alternative
for
luxurious jewelry. They seem to compliment different occasions and
clothing and
they never go out of style. It is a perfect jewelry to symbolize an
individual's personality. It defines you as someone simple, yet elegant
and
modish.
With the escalation of men's fashion jewelry,
dozens and
dozens of men are becoming a part of silver bracelets popularity and
newer
trends are coming out, developed by skilled artisans. Integrating
function and
style make bracelets a wonderful option as your gift. Different
varieties of
silver bracelets today are designed; some are accented with diamonds,
gemstones, crystals or other materials such as wood or onyx. The most
common
bracelets for men are bracelets with curb links. Men's bracelets are
kept
simple and heavy to consider the man's personal style and to fit their
masculinity.
If you're looking for that perfect gift for the man
in
your life, for example, consider purchasing a wider bracelet chain. In
the curb
chains, for example, you might look for anything above 4.7 mm. If your
man has
a wider wrist because he's into body building, for instance, you'll
definitely
want the widest silver bracelet you get, unlike for women, the opposite
is
true. You want to purchase the more delicate, sleeker looking sterling
silver
bracelet and that means looking for the lower width. Men's jewelry is
much more
about their personal preferences and a statement of self than some other
fashion items and your options are plentiful. You can even have them
personalized by carving your loved one's name or initials on bracelet.
Traditional silver bracelets look classic and are unforgettable. These
jewelries are considered as mature and graceful fashion choice for men.
For women, fashion offers a multitude of choices,
including link, charm, cuff and bangle bracelets to name a few. Link
silver
bracelets for women come in all sizes. Larger, hoop-like links,
especially if
elliptical or oddly shaped, look compelling on their own. Smaller links
can
bear gemstones or crystals. Very fine links can be used in making
multiple-strand bracelets. Of all silver bracelets for women, these can
be
easily sized by adding or subtracting links.
Charms have been worn as amulets to ward off evil,
to
protect against enemies in battle, and as lockets holding a photograph
or a
lock of hair. Their popularity spiked in the 1950s, when teenagers began
wearing them to represent significant events, hobbies, and people.
Charms can
be suspended from a bracelet's links, or snapped into them.
Cuff bracelets are semi-circular bracelets are
notable
amongst silver bracelets for women for being open on one side, with no
clasp or
closure. Usually, they are close-fitting and so stay on the wrist. They
can be
thick or thin, filigreed or solid, engraved or adorned with a gemstone.
In
ancient times, and again during the roaring 1920s, cuff bracelets were
worn
high up on the arm.
Perhaps the most enduring of all silver bracelets
for
women is the bangle. Made without a clasp or closure, the bangle is a
solid
circle that can be slipped over the wrist.
Approach to fashion can be expressed in a number of
ways and for women the best way to achieve this is to wear beautiful and
eye-catching jewelry. Because of its individuality and affordability,
silver
bracelets have become a must-have accessory in every woman's jewelry
collection. These bracelets can be matched with any kind of outfit, and
they
can be personalized according to your style and taste.
