How to measure your wrist?
There are several ways to measure a bracelet size. But first, make sure this article is clearly visible on your computer, just in case your loved one happens to see it... by accident!
Wrist size is crucial so you can choose the bracelet that fits you best. To measure a wrist, there are not many options. You will need a tape measure or, if not available, a string and a ruler.
- To start, wrap a tape measure or string around your wrist, making sure to leave a finger's width between your skin and the tape or string. If you use a string, mark the length needed and measure it with a ruler. If you want a loose fit bracelet, you can add 1 centimeter to this measurement. For a fairly loose fit, you can add up to two centimeters. Beyond that, you risk having a bracelet that is too loose and may fall off.
- Next, for rigid bracelets (bangles), knowing your wrist size is not enough. You also need to measure your hand size to ensure it fits through the bracelet.
- Also consider visiting your jeweler, who is best placed to help you and often does so for free.

Focus on standard bracelet sizes
If you need to give a gift to someone, it can sometimes be tricky to measure a wrist without raising suspicion! To give you an idea of standard bracelet sizes, we provide below the standard measurements for women, men, and children so you know which bracelet size to choose.
Women's bracelets.
Women's wrist sizes vary depending on the person's body shape. However, a standard size for a women's bracelet is around 19 cm. If you want a loose fit, you can choose a 20-centimeter bracelet.
Men's bracelets.
Men's bracelets are about 20 to 21 cm long. The smallest sizes can be 18.5 cm and the largest 23 cm. Within this range, you will need to adjust the bracelet length choice to the physique of the man you want to gift.
Bracelets for children.
Newborn, child, or teenager, wrist sizes will not be the same. For newborns, the ID bracelets and bracelets you will find range from 14 to 16 cm. If you are clever, you will choose a model with attachment rings at different levels, allowing for an adjustable bracelet during the first years of life. As for bracelets for children/teenagers, these will range from 16 to 18 centimeters. You can again opt for a clasp system with two rings allowing the bracelet to adapt to the child's growth.
So, if you understand, choosing a bracelet with multiple clasps (adjustable) is the smart choice!
