The quality is just awesome!

Italian Charms make great gifts on any budget!  There is a charm for that..There are 100s of themes to fit many different aspects of lives and memories.  It is this point that helps to make these awesome for gifts for any occasion any budget!  The trend began in the mid 1980s in Italy. The Soccer Players of Italy requested a style of bracelet for their team that they could wear at the Soccer Finals that represented them as a team differently from any other at the time. The craze spread so fast that soccer players have been known to wear bracelets that reflected their country’s colors. The trend spread to the United States after American tourists became enamored with the style.

An Italian charm starter bracelet from our store consists of 18 blank individual rectangular links. Standardized sizing allows for each piece to be interchangeable with any Italian charm. Unlike traditional charm bracelets that dangle off a chain, the Italian charm bracelet allows for a complete look that can be changed depending on the wearer’s mood and/or changing interests.    A traditional link of an Italian charm bracelet consists of a rectangular piece of stainless steel on which the design is soldered or etched onto the surface.

Recently, Italian charm makers have begun making full color charms using an enamel process. This process is very expensive though so it is reserved for charms that will sell in large quantities. However, many charm wearers wish to have specific charms made that express the uniqueness of the individual wearing the bracelet. Therefore, as the popularity of Italian charms has increased, manufacturers of the charms have had to find quicker and less expensive means of creating charms.  In the result of this, the charms were mass produced to accommodate the demand.  Because of this the charms were glued not soldered, thin chip, not 100% stainless steel resulting in a less expensive product which was sold at Flea Markets, Retail Budget Stores and Small Mom & Pop stores Just to name a few.
The higher quality charms took a slump in the demand until consumers realized that these (99 cent ones) did not hold up to any time or wear until now.  Consumers like your self have realized that you get what you pay for and the quality of the Italian Charms had taken a huge dive.  Now that the popularity has lessened and you cannot find the charms just anywhere the quality and uniqueness that made these charms s very unique are coming back.  The quality of the Italian Charm with the thick chip, 18kt gold overlay, UV protection are the prime standard consideration of an educated fancier of Today’s Italian Charms.

Charms are very special and different in that they can reflect any part of your individual personality. Individuals can choose from the most general charms which represent their hobbies, interests or even what career they are in.  Italian Charm Bracelets are unique upon themselves for each link can be replaced as often as changing colors and wardrobes, from Spring, Summer to Fall & Winter as a person’s interests change. Each bracelet can be created through any theme that the individual can imagine. Common themes include memories of a vacation &/or trip, the birth of a newborn &/or graduation…etc.    You will find that for 20-30 dollars you will be able to find a Starter Bracelet and 3-4 really nice, high quality charms for your office parties, secret Santa, circle of friends who you like to share something with without strapping an already taxed budget.  These are thoughtful little pieces of style and packed full of memories.  We at Add A Link Of Charm refer to these bracelets a Memory Bracelets or Friend Ship Bracelets.
