Questions about gold bangles

How do I know if a bangle will fit?

Measure the widest part of the hand with the thumb tucked in, and compare it with the inner measurement in the listing.

What is a hinged bangle?

A bangle that opens on a hinge and fastens with a clasp, so it does not need to pass over the hand.

Can a bangle be resized?

Solid gold bangles generally cannot be resized without altering the piece; choose by the measurements in the listing.
