These gold plated floral AD bangles come as a set of two, worked all the way round in a lattice of small clear American diamond stones arranged as open flowers. They are the kind of bangles meant to be worn as a pair on one wrist, where the two catch light against each other, or split across both wrists alongside plainer gold. The stones are set close enough that the bangle reads as a continuous band of sparkle from a distance, while the gold shows through the openwork at close range.
The construction is openwork rather than solid: the gold forms a scrolling frame of linked circles, and a clear stone sits at the centre of each one, so light passes through the gaps between them instead of stopping at a flat surface. That is what keeps a bangle of this width from looking heavy on the wrist. The stones run in three parallel rows, the outer two slightly smaller than the central row, which gives the band a gentle dome rather than a flat face. Each stone is held in its own claw setting rather than glued into a channel, which is the more durable of the two methods and lets the stone sit proud enough to catch light from the side. The inner surface is smooth and unworked so nothing catches on skin or sleeves.
Clear stones on gold are the most forgiving combination in Indian jewellery, because they take on whatever colour they sit against rather than fighting it. Wear the pair together on one wrist with a silk saree or a lehenga, or separate them and stack each with two or three plain gold bangles for a fuller look. They suit a bridal or reception outfit in any shade, and they work equally with a simple anarkali where you want one point of sparkle. Keep the rest of the jewellery gold toned, and if you are wearing a heavy necklace let the bangles be the quieter half of the look.
Weddings and receptions, engagement functions, sangeet evenings, Diwali and festive occasions, and gifting to a bride or for an anniversary. A pair of AD bangles is also one of the safer gifts in this category, since clear stones go with everything the recipient already owns.
This design is made in sizes 2.4, 2.6 and 2.8. Indian bangle sizes count upward, so a 2.4 is a smaller fit than a 2.6 and a 2.8 is larger again, with 2.6 the size most women take. These slip on over the hand rather than opening on a hinge or a screw, so choosing correctly matters more here than it would on an adjustable bangle.
The reliable way to find your size is to take a bangle that already fits you, measure straight across the inside from edge to edge, and match that against a bangle size chart. If you do not own one, bring your thumb across to the base of your little finger as though you were slipping a bangle on, wrap a strip of paper snugly around the widest part of that shape, mark where it overlaps and measure it flat. If you fall between two sizes take the larger one: a bangle that will not pass the hand cannot be worn at all, while a slightly loose one still sits well. Send us your measurement on WhatsApp and we will confirm the size before the order is taken.
Gold plating and stone settings both dislike moisture, so take the bangles off before washing your hands, bathing or swimming, and put them on after perfume and hair spray have dried. Wipe them with a dry soft cloth after wearing, paying attention to the back of the stones where dust and skin oils collect and dull the sparkle. Store the pair in a soft pouch rather than loose in a box, where they will rub against each other and against harder jewellery.
