Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between 14K and 18K gold bangles?
14K gold contains 58.3% pure gold, making it more durable, scratch-resistant, and better suited for everyday wear. 18K gold (75% pure gold) offers richer color and softer feel but scratches more easily. For bangles worn regularly, 14K provides optimal balance of beauty and durability.
Are your bangles solid or hollow?
We offer both. Solid bangles are filled throughout with gold, making them heavier, more durable, and more valuable. Hollow bangles have empty interior space, reducing weight and cost while maintaining appearance. Product details specify construction type- each serves different preferences and budgets.
How do I choose the right bangle size?
Bangles should slide over your hand with mild resistance but not be so loose they fall off. Measure the widest part of your hand (including thumb tucked into palm) or try on similar bangles. Standard sizes range from 2.4" to 2.8" interior diameter. We offer sizing assistance and custom sizes.
Can I wear 14K gold bangles every day?
Absolutely. 14K gold's durability makes it ideal for daily wear. It resists scratching and denting better than higher karat gold while maintaining beautiful color. Remove during extremely physical activities, heavy labor, or when working with harsh chemicals to maximize longevity.
Will 14K gold tarnish or change color over time?
No. Solid 14K gold doesn't tarnish or change color. It may accumulate dirt, oils, or minor surface dulling from daily wear, but regular cleaning restores original luster. Unlike plated jewelry, 14K gold maintains its color permanently because the gold goes throughout the piece.
How heavy should a quality gold bangle be?
Weight varies by width, thickness, and whether it's solid or hollow. Solid bangles typically range from 10-40+ grams depending on size. Hollow bangles weigh significantly less. Heavier doesn't always mean better- consider your comfort and how you'll wear it. We provide exact weights for each piece.
Can I stack multiple bangles together?
Yes. Stacking gold bangles creates beautiful dimension and sound. Ensure they're the same size for comfortable stacking. You can mix widths (thin and thick together) or keep them uniform. Stacking several bangles is traditional in many cultures and increasingly popular in contemporary styling.
What's the difference between a bangle and a bracelet?
Bangles are rigid, circular pieces without clasps that slide over the hand. Bracelets are flexible with clasps or closures. Bangles offer structured, sculptural presence and distinctive sound when moved. Bracelets provide adjustability and easier wearing for those with larger hands.
How do I put on and remove a bangle safely?
Hold fingers together tightly and tuck thumb into palm to minimize hand width. Slide the bangle over at an angle, rotating as you push. Apply hand lotion if needed to help it glide. Never force — if it doesn't slide relatively easily, you may need a larger size.
Can gold bangles be resized?
Resizing bangles is more complex than resizing rings and may not always be possible, especially for seamless designs. Some styles can be carefully adjusted, but it may affect appearance or integrity. We recommend choosing the correct size initially or selecting hinged designs if you're between sizes.
What bangle width is most comfortable and versatile?
Narrow bangles (3-8 mm) offer delicate elegance and work for most occasions. Medium widths (8-15 mm) provide balanced presence. Wide bangles (15 mm+) make bold statements but may feel less comfortable initially. Consider your wrist size, personal style, and whether you'll stack multiple bangles.
Do you offer bangles with clasps or are they all seamless?
We offer both. Seamless bangles are traditional, continuous circles. Hinged bangles feature closures with secure clasps, making them easier to wear, especially for those with larger hands or arthritis. Both styles are equally beautiful- choose based on practical considerations.
How do I care for my 14K gold bangle?
Clean regularly with warm water, mild soap, and a soft cloth to remove oils and residue. For deeper cleaning, use a soft brush on textured areas. Dry thoroughly. Store individually in soft pouches to prevent scratching. Bring it in periodically for professional polishing to maintain shine.
What's your return, exchange, and warranty policy?
We offer 14-day returns and exchanges on non-custom pieces. Custom bangles are final sale but include detailed sizing consultation before creation. All bangles include a warranty covering manufacturing defects and lifetime services: cleaning, polishing, and inspection to maintain their beauty for generations.
