Bracelets

The length of a bracelet to buy is determined by the size of the wearer's wrist and size of the beads in the bracelet. Larger beads mean that the bracelet should be longer to fit comfortably on the wrist. The average, traditional bracelet is 7 1/2 inches long. Bracelets with very large beads may be 8 or 9 inches long. Here are wrist sizes for bracelets:

Small: 6 inches, 15cm
Medium: 6 1/2 to 7 inches, 17cm
Large: 7 1/2 inches, 18cm
