ABOUT ITALIAN CHARMS

Italian charms originated in Italy and were first manufactured in
the 1980s. They spread first to France and then to the United States
where they have become increasingly popular. Their immense
popularity comes from the fact that they are entirely customizable.
There are many options to choose from.
Adding a favorite
photo,
personalizing with a
name or special date like a birthday or anniversary absolutely makes
a one of a kind piece of jewelry. Perhaps you would prefer a less
personal bracelet, simply showing off your favorite vacation spot or
your favorite hobby.
You can also make your own
design!!
Because Italian charm bracelets are so personal they make
perfect gifts. You can design an entire bracelet for somebody
special filled with all of their favorite things. You can also start
someone with a new starter bracelet and add just a few charms so
they can add more of their own choosing. or for someone who already
collects Italian charms you can always give them one or more charms
to add to their existing bracelet.

How Italian Charms Work
A starter bracelet consists of eighteen blank links. In order to
create a personalized Italian charm bracelet, these blank links are
replaced, one by one, with selected designs of Italian charms. Their
modular design means that Italian charm bracelets are
interchangeable. Individual pieces can be switched out for a new
look or to better suit the mood or changing interests of an
individual.
All of our charms fit perfectly with other same-size brands of
Italian charms.
How to Attach the Links for My Bracelet
1) Start out by squeezing the Italian Charm between the flat part of
your thumb and the flat part of your index finger . Squeeze tightly.
2) Push your thumb forward, while still squeezing. You will notice
as you push forward that part of the Italian Charm slides with your
thumb and part of the Italian Charm stays with your index finger.
This is opening the Italian Charm up. Now, since it is
spring-loaded, don't let up on the pressure or it will snap back
into place. If you look at the part under your thumb, you will
notice you have pushed out a flat hook.
3) Holding another Italian Charm in your other hand, you can connect
the "hook" to the "bar" on the back of the other Italian Charm. You
don't have to open the other Italian Charm up, you can just hook
right onto it.
If you push on the Italian Charm to open it and nothing happens,
turn it around and push the other way - they only open one way.
With a little bit of practice you will find that it is easy to
connect your Italian charms. If you are still having trouble try one
of our Italian Charm Tools which are designed to aid you in opening
and connecting your charms.
