Size guide
Find your bracelet size
This bracelet is adjustable and fits most wrists. Use the table as a simple guide.
Measure at home in 2 minutes
You need a strip of paper (or a string or shoelace), a pen and a ruler.
- Wrap the strip around your wrist, just above the wrist bone, snug but not tight.
- Mark with the pen where the end overlaps.
- Lay it flat and measure from the end to the mark: that is your wrist size.
- Find your wrist in the table below and read the bracelet length, close fit or looser.
Already have a bracelet that fits well? Lay it flat, clasp closed, measure it end to end and order that length.
No ruler? A bank card is 8.6 cm (3.4") long: count how many fit along your strip.

How to wear it
The bracelet reaches about 19.5 cm with its extender, and the small cross, about 16 mm, sits in line with the chain rather than hanging from it. It is discreet enough to wear with a watch, under a shirt cuff or beside a second fine bracelet.
To keep its shine, put it on last, after lotion and perfume, and take it off for the shower, the pool and the beach. If it darkens over time, a polishing cloth brings the shine back. It suits a confirmation, Christmas or plain everyday wear.
Questions
Why does The Graceful Cross need more care than a steel bracelet?
It is 925 sterling silver, not stainless steel, so air, water and perfume can slowly darken it. Keep it dry and wipe it with a soft cloth.
How do the spring ring clasp and extender of The Graceful Cross work?
The spring ring clasp hooks onto the extender chain, so you choose how snug the bracelet sits. With the extender it reaches about 19.5 cm.
Why has it gone darker?
Air, moisture and perfume can darken the finish over time. Rub it with a polishing cloth and store it in a dry pouch.
How long is the bracelet?
About 19.5 cm with the extender fully open. The spring ring clasp lets you close it shorter on the extender for a closer fit.
Is the 16 mm sideways cross of The Graceful Cross noticeable on the wrist?
Only up close. About 16 mm wide, it reads as a quiet detail on the fine chain rather than a pendant.
Why would a godmother choose The Graceful Cross for a confirmation?
Because it is the sign of faith at its simplest: a small sideways cross joining a fine chain. It is light enough for a girl who rarely wears jewelry to keep on after the ceremony.

- Daily wear: Put your jewelry on last, after lotions, perfume and hairspray.
- Tarnish: Sterling silver darkens naturally with air and moisture. A silver polishing cloth restores its shine.
- Storage: Store it in its signature gift box, away from humidity.
- Water: Wear it in the shower and at the gym. After the pool or the sea it can darken; this is normal and reversible, and a polishing cloth brings the shine back.
Its meaning
The cross in its simplest line
The cross is two lines meeting, and that plainness is part of its strength.
Most Protestant churches prefer an empty cross, a sign that Christ is risen, while Catholics also keep the crucifix with the figure of Jesus. A bare cross like this one belongs to both traditions. Turned on its side, it no longer hangs as a pendant but becomes part of the bracelet itself. Here a small cross joins the two halves of a fine chain, with a spring ring clasp and an extender to adjust the fit. It is about as discreet...
Giving it as a gift
For a friend who rarely wears jewelry, this is a cross she can keep on without thinking about it. It also makes a gentle confirmation or Christmas gift for a daughter or goddaughter.
