9ct Yellow Gold 0.34ct Diamond Bangle

A bangle is a rigid form, so unlike a bracelet it has no clasp to work loose and no line to twist. The diamonds are set along the front face, where they sit in view while the plain back takes the wear against the wrist.

This one is 9ct yellow gold, set with 0.34 ct of natural mined diamonds graded GH/SI. Made from 100% certified Australian gold.

Will this suit me?

• Size: Listed at 60 × 50 mm, an oval. A rigid bangle has to pass over your hand, so it is sized to the hand rather than the wrist. The simplest check is to measure across the inside of a bangle you already own, at its widest point and at right angles to it.
• How it looks: 0.34 ct of natural diamonds set along the front face, about 8.4 g in total. The oval shape stops it rotating, so the stones stay on show.
• Everyday wear: There is no clasp to work loose, and the plain back takes the wear against the wrist. Bracelets take a lot of knocks, and 9ct is the harder alloy, so it is the practical choice for daily wear.
• Other options: Metal: 18ct yellow gold.

An oval section fits the wrist better than a true circle — the wrist is oval too — so the bangle stays put instead of rotating and hiding its stones.

9ct yellow gold is 375 parts per thousand fine gold. The higher alloy content makes it hard and more scratch-resistant than 18ct, which is why it's always been the popular choice for everyday wear.

Care. Rigid forms do not like being dropped on hard floors. Store it where it cannot roll off a surface.
