How to Measure Your Wrist for a Sterling Silver Cuff Bracelet
Whether you're gifting one of our handmade silver cuff bracelets to a loved one or treating yourself to a unique bracelet, it’s crucial to get the right fit.
In this blog, I will walk you through how to measure your wrist accurately for a cuff bracelet and explain why getting the correct size matters when it comes to sterling silver cuffs.
Why Is The Wrist Size Important for a Cuff Bracelet?
Our sterling silver cuff bracelets are a beautiful and timeless piece of jewellery, but getting the correct fit plays a vital role in both comfort and style. Unlike adjustable bracelets or chain bracelets, which can be adjusted or clip into place, cuff bracelets are designed to slide over the wrist and stay in place.
If your cuff bracelet is too small, it may not fit over your wrist, or it may feel too tight. On the other hand, if it’s too large, the bracelet may slip off or move around on your wrist or keep falling up the arm, which can become irritating.
To avoid these issues and ensure that your cuff bracelet looks and feels great, it’s essential to measure your wrist and select the right size.
Here is a video explaining measuring and also a demo on the effect on selecting the incorrect size.
Step-by-Step Guide: How to Measure Your Wrist for a Cuff Bracelet
Measuring your wrist for a cuff bracelet is quick and simple. All you need is a flexible measuring tape or a piece of string and a ruler. Here’s how to do it:
Step 1: Use a Flexible Measuring Tape
Step 2: Measure the Circumference
- Note the measurement where the tape meets, as this is your wrist circumference.
- If you’re using a piece of string, mark where the string overlaps, then measure the length with a ruler.
Step 3: Determine the Bracelet Size
- We make our cuff bracelets in 3 standard sizes -
- Extra Small - Wrist size 15cm - 16.5cm
- Small - Medium - Wrist size 17cm - 18.5cm
- Medium - Large - Wrist size 19cm - 20.5cm
Why Should You Get the Right Size Cuff?

- Comfort: A cuff bracelet that fits well is comfortable to wear throughout the day,
