Italian Charm Bracelet

Italian charm bracelet charms are different from most charm bracelets. Instead of being round or in the shape of something, Italian charm bracelet charms are rectangular flat links with varying designs on top (either horizontally or vertically placed). With an integrated spring-loaded clasp mechanism, a bracelet is assembled by joining the links (an Italian bracelet of standard size typically consists of 18 links). Charms for Italian charm bracelets are available in various shapes and sizes, and although most have nothing hanging from them, some have a small charm hanging from the flat link. The regular-sized Italian charm bracelet is 9mm; other sizes offered are 15 and 18mm, and mega links are square 18mm links adults can hook two strands of regular links to (so they end up with a double bracelet).

Different sizes of Italian charm bracelet

There are several kinds of Italian charm bracelet sizes, but the primary size is 9mm. The 9mm charms are interconnectable with one another. A bracelet of the average adult size requires 18–20 9mm charms. Additionally, they connect to 13 to 9 mm charms, midlinks, mega charms superlinks, and mega UNO charms. The mega charm serves as the focal point of the bracelet, and links made of 18mm mega Italian charms will join two 9mm bracelets. Each 9mm bracelet can be connected to one of the two hooks on the side of it. Mega charms come in larger sizes and are utilized in mega keychains, necklaces, and scrapbook bracelets. An average-sized bracelet requires nine or ten of these mega charms. Mega UNO charms are not compatible with these mega charms.

Mega UNO charms measure 18 mm and resemble regular mega charms, except they can only link one 9 mm Italian charm bracelet and have a single hook. They are used for the large Italian charm key chain and can also serve as the focal point of a single bracelet. They will connect to every charm except the 9mm charms. They are not compatible with common mega charms. 13mm women's and men's Italian charm bracelets do not link to the standard 9mm charms. They only link to other 13mm charms. They are slightly larger than the 9mm charms and have a larger surface. Since they are a more oversized charm, they are better suited for men or women who like more considerable charms.
