On Black Friday the best buy is a bracelet you wear every day and that matches what you already have. For many women that is a gemstone beaded bracelet, like a Saturn Small or an Interstellar. You wear it on its own, but also in a stack. If you know your size in advance, you order quickly and with confidence later on.
Bracelets are the most popular piece of jewellery, also around Black Friday. In this blog you read which models there are, which stone suits you and how to combine smartly.
Which bracelets can you choose from?
The choice is big, so it is handy to know the main models first.
Saturn Small: the favourite
The Saturn Small is a true classic. It has 4 mm beads and is 18 cm long. The bracelet is elastic, so you simply slide it over your wrist. It comes in almost every stone, from blue sodalite to soft pink rose quartz.
According to the product page, the gold coloured Saturn Small Sodalite is gold filled, with a gold plated finish. If you love blue, also take a look at the sodalite collection.

Interstellar: fine and delicate
The Interstellar has smaller 3 mm beads. That makes it look finer. It is lovely if you have a slim wrist, or if you wear several bracelets together. The Interstellar Bracelet Pearl combines pearls with small metal beads. That gives a soft glow that goes with many outfits.
A bangle for a sleek look
Do you love sleek and classic? Then a bangle is a good choice. A bangle is a sturdy, round bracelet. You choose it in a fixed size, such as S, M or L.
Which bracelet suits you?
With a few questions you quickly find the bracelet you will really wear.
Look at your colours
Do you wear a lot of blue, grey or denim? Then a blue stone like sodalite looks lovely. Do you wear more brown, beige or black? Then smoky quartz suits you better. The Interstellar Bracelet Smoky Quartz has a warm brown tone that looks calm next to gold.
Look at your stack
Do you already have a few bracelets? Then choose a new bracelet with a different bead size. A 3 mm and a 4 mm bracelet look lovely side by side. In the beaded bracelets collection you filter by stone and colour. That way you quickly find something that fits in.
Just starting out? Then a bracelet set is a smart start. In a set, the bracelets are already matched to each other.
How do you buy a bracelet smartly on Black Friday?
With a little preparation you get more out of your discount.

Measure your wrist beforehand
Many beaded bracelets are 18 cm long. Still, not every wrist is the same. So measure your wrist with a strip of paper and add 1 to 1.5 cm. That way your bracelet sits comfortably, not too tight and not too loose.

Why does a good bracelet last a long time?
Material, finish and warranty make the difference in the long run.
Material and warranty
Always check the material on the product page. For these bracelets, the gold coloured versions are listed as gold filled. The beaded bracelets come with a 10 year warranty, as stated on the product page. That gives confidence, even if you wear it every day.
Adding more with Mix & Match
With Mix & Match you freely combine bracelets with each other and with other jewellery. You start with one bracelet and add more later. That way your collection grows with your taste. The concept has been around for years and is designed in the Netherlands. The jewellery is made in ateliers in Italy, Bangkok and Hong Kong.
