Buzz-worthy bracelet

Posted on by

Buzz on over to Ann’s today for some charm shopping therapy!

 

Today our buzz-worthy jewelry is a rather spectacular bracelet made of jewels and sterling silver in charms that slide onto a triple strand of sterling silver.  (Did you see it featured in the Memorial section of today’s Houston Chronicle?)

Let’s take a closer look.

Slide charms have openings on the side where the triple strand sterling silver bracelet slips through.   The empty bracelet looks like this:

Triple strand, sterling silver bracelet, adjustable in size. Bracelet alone is $98.
Charms slide over the “bar” end of the bracelet in any order you wish.  Some of the charms from our bracelet today look like this:
 

Faceted Calypso quartz slide charm set in sterling silver, $88 Sparkly Blue Drusy quartz in sterling silver, $78 charm.

 
 

Blue Drusy quartz in sterling silver, $78 charm.

 
 
 

Blue howlite, blue sapphire drusy, blue spinel, and white quartz in sterling silver, $115

 
You’ll want a couple of sterling silver clips to keep your charms from slipping around your wrist when you wear the bracelet:
 
 

Sterling silver clips keep your charms from sliding. $68/pair

 
When you put all these together, you have a bracelet that dazzles! 
 
Choose your own charms or buy a bracelet like the one above, already created and ready to wear.
