Nowadays people are turning more and more to everything natural. Bracelets made of Natural Baltic Amber are very nice.

What should be the proper fit for a bracelet? Is it too loose if there's enough space for 3 fingers? I have a small 6" wrist and find it hard to find bracelets in the correct size OTR.

A local and talented artisan here in the SF Bay Area makes these great bracelets with dark leather cording, stones and beads individually strung between. I have three with different combinations - all very handsome. This one is with two different stones: Apatite and Angelite, looking decent with a Brioni ivory graph shirt. Most gent's bead/stone bracelets I see in mags and from luxury houses are, IMHO, very uninteresting in their simplicity, and WAY overpriced for what they are. These from Bodhi Beads are super reasonable at $45 USD, especially given the individual tying of every bead/stone, not to mention the thought and artisanship put into the composition, choice of stones, and overall elegance.

I prefer to wear a single thick matte black stone bracelet for formal occasions and as for casual wear I would stack lighter stone colors such tiger eye beads (4 MAX). Below is an example of the thicker bracelet with formal wear. the beads were made with the same materials as David Yurman without you having to pay $100 for it.

And you, of course, have absolutely no affiliation with this website. You just thought you'd make a public service announcement for your first post?

Nah I just shopped there and answering a question. Also while on the topic I'm trying to comment and get active. Sorry if I may of offended you, just passing time at work and forums keep me from not going crazy in this little 9-5 cubicle of mine. Fml. -_-

I wear my pocket watch chains (when not wearing a pocket watch) as a bracelet. Rose gold and yellow gold.
Looks nice, imo, is utilitarian + got the mop pen knife on there that’s sharp af in case I gotta cut a fool.
