Heart Shape Inlaid Zircon 18K Gold-Plated Bracelet | 100500596251426

How to Measure

1. Measure your wrist:
   • Wrap a soft measuring tape (or a strip of paper/string) around your wrist at the wrist bone.
   • Mark where it meets and measure that length with a ruler.
2. Choose your fit allowance:
   • Snug fit: wrist size + 0.5–1 cm (about 1/4–3/8 in).
   • Comfort fit (most popular): wrist size + 1.5–2 cm (about 1/2–3/4 in).
   • Loose/draped fit: wrist size + 2–3 cm (about 3/4–1 1/4 in).
3. Measure an existing bracelet you love:
   • Lay it flat and measure from the clasp tip to the end ring (include the clasp in the total length).
   • If it has an extender, also note the shortest and longest wearable lengths (to the first and last extender links).
4. Check charm and chain details:
   • Heart motif size: measure the widest and tallest points if you need to compare proportions.
   • Chain thickness: measure across one link to compare with your other bracelets for stacking.

Layering tip: for a clean stack, vary bracelet lengths by 1.5–2 cm so each piece sits neatly without tangling.

Materials & Craft

• 18K Gold-Plated Finish:
  • 18 karat gold (75% gold content) is electroplated to give a rich, warm tone similar to solid 18K.
  • Plating thickness can vary by style; thicker “micro-plating” generally lasts longer under normal wear.
  • A clear protective topcoat is often used in fashion jewelry to help resist early fading from moisture and friction.
• Stone: Inlaid Zircon (Cubic Zirconia, CZ):
  • Brilliant, lab-created gemstone prized for diamond-like sparkle and clarity.
  • Durability: approx. 8–8.5 on the Mohs hardness scale—more scratch resistant than glass.
  • Precision-cut facets maximize light return; the inlaid/pavé setting helps keep stones secure and close to the surface for extra shine.
• Base Metal:
  • Gold plating is typically applied over a jewelry-grade base (commonly brass or 925 sterling silver). Exact base may vary by production batch.
  • If you have sensitive skin, look for “nickel-free” notes in the product specs or wear over a barrier lotion for added comfort.
• Closure:
  • Designed with a secure clasp for everyday wear; if an extender chain is present, it allows flexible sizing and layering.

Fit & Model Notes

• On-wrist look: a delicate chain centers the heart motif; wear it snug for a polished look or slightly loose for a soft drape over the wrist.
• Styling balance: the heart adds a focal point that pairs well with slim bangles or a minimalist watch.
• If the bracelet includes an extender, start at your wrist size + 1.5 cm and adjust link-by-link until the heart rests centered and comfortable.

Tip: If gifting and unsure of size, an adjustable bracelet is the safest choice for most wrist measurements.

Care Guide (to keep it lovely longer)

• Last on, first off: put your bracelet on after lotions, perfume, and hairspray; remove before exercising, showering, or sleeping.
• Avoid chemicals: keep away from pools, hot tubs, household cleaners, and hand sanitizers that can dull plating and stones.
• Gentle cleaning: wipe with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. For deeper clean, use lukewarm water with a drop of mild soap; brush gently with a soft toothbrush, rinse, and pat dry completely.
• Storage: keep it in a pouch or separate compartment to prevent friction with other jewelry. Add a silica gel packet to reduce moisture.
• Do not use ultrasonic cleaners, abrasive polishes, or rough cloths on plated jewelry.
• Normal wear can thin plating over time. If needed, your local jeweler can re-plate to refresh the finish.

Style Tips

• Romantic minimalism: wear solo with a fine gold chain necklace for an understated, feminine look.
• Layered stack: pair with a tennis bracelet or thin bangles; vary textures (box chain, rope, snake) for depth.
• Everyday shine: mix with small gold hoops and a simple signet ring for a cohesive daily set.
• Date night: let the heart be the hero—keep other pieces slim and coordinate warm tones (champagne, blush, ivory) to echo the 18K glow.
• Gift-ready: heart motifs are perfect for birthdays, anniversaries, Valentine’s Day, and bridesmaid sets.
