The whole Pandora line can be divided into several categories-bases for creating your own jewelry. These include: bracelets, protective chains, dividers, stoppers, charms, murano.

The most common and practical is a silver base bracelet. Minimalistic, durable, with a reliable clasp, it fits on a large number of different elements and fits nicely on the arm.

Available in gold, bicolor, blackened silver.

No less popular is a hard bangle bracelet, which in itself looks like a self-contained piece of jewelry. It is more original in form, but less variable in color. Bangles differ from each other only in the shape of the clasp.

In addition to metal bases, Pandora bracelets can be made of leather, smooth or woven, for one, two or three turns around the wrist. They are less versatile, but the wide range of colors allows you to choose an option for any clothes, play with combinations of shades, combining different jewelry or two bracelets of different colors.

A bit like leather jewelry bracelets made of textiles. They are gentle, thin, very elegant look on the narrow wrists of young girls. Also made in a large color spectrum.

Of course, the assortment is not limited to four models, but all other Pandora bracelets are rather an additional or independent decoration, rather than a basis on which significant events can be reflected and collected in their own history.

They look like a beautiful element of the bracelet, but in fact their purpose is to protect the jewelry from falling off the hand, if the clasp is accidentally undone. This is very convenient, since the bracelet will not be lost. Chains come in different lengths, links differ from each other in design.

Narrow, flat beads, which are necessary to separate one charm from another, or to fill the empty space on the base, if other elements do not fit there. In the overall composition they look like full decorations.

There are two types: large clips-beads, which are fixed on special threads of the base bracelet, dividing it into 3 identical parts and silicone stoppers designed for Bangles, on which there are no thickening and thread.

These are special pendants that fill the sections of the bracelet. They are divided into threaded beads, screwed on a bracelet and openwork, which are simply strung on the base.

There are a whole series of charms dedicated to travel, relationships, family, zodiac signs and other categories. There are charms without a specific theme. Among them are the heart, flowers, ballerina, letters and numbers, the sign of infinity, quatrefoil for good luck.

Women's bracelets with charms, pendants and balls can be worn on the arm or on the leg. It looks very beautiful and unusual.

They differ in that they have additional details that hang from the base. Especially popular among the pendants are watches.

A special type of pendants, which are created by special Italian technology of cutting and staining glass. They are bright, unusual and simply amaze with beauty and diversity. Such beads are a wonderful option for a bracelet in a certain color range.

In addition to the smooth murano faceted distributed. Each bead has about 70 facets that catch and reflect light and play in a special way on the bracelet, becoming its accent.

The raw materials used in production are the pride of Pandora. All jewelry is created from yellow or pink gold, silver, and combinations of these materials, natural leather, 95% cotton.For the manufacture of charms used natural and artificial gems, crystals, glass of the highest quality. We should also highlight the charms with enamel.

The business card of Pandora bracelets is silver. Also found products made of gold and in bicolor. Jewelry in color are common among leather and textile bracelets, as well as in the design of pendants and glass muranos. The main colors: pink, blue, black, turquoise, red.

When choosing the perfect size, you should consider the girth of the wrist and features of the preferred model. The ideal length of a single bracelet is calculated by the formula: wrist girth plus 2-4 centimeters. Guided by this rule, you need to be more careful with Bangla bracelets of rigid form, they are presented in only three versions: 17, 19 and 21 cm.

The formula is valid in relation to bracelets by 2-3 turns around the arm, but with one nuance. Before you add 2-4 centimeters to the length of the volume of the wrist, it should be multiplied by 2 or 3 by the number of turns, respectively. In order not to be mistaken in the calculations, you can use the finished size table, which the company has developed individually for each model.

Particular attention should be paid to the size when choosing a model from the Pandora Essence collection. The length of the products in this collection varies within 6 sizes, and the ideal variant is calculated according to the formula: the wrist girth plus 1 cm.

Not only bracelets have their own parameters, but also protective chains - from 4 to 7 cm. There are not so tough options here, there will be enough 4-5 cm chains so that the product is not lost if the lock breaks.

The variety of Pandora products is so great that a beginner's head is spinning and it is very easy to make a mistake in choosing without knowing some of the features of jewelry socks. When choosing a bracelet and accessories for it, you should consider that:

• Size is determined by the formula and table;
• If the length of the girth is on the border of two sizes, you need to make a start from the number of charms that will be mounted on the bracelet. With large quantities, it is better to give preference to a greater length, with a small one - to a smaller one
• The bracelet immediately after purchase is denser and tougher than after prolonged wear. Over time, all products, except for bangles, will become flexible;
• The product has the ability to stretch up to 1 additional centimeter;
• Charms do not take up as much space as it may seem, so do not neglect the company's recommendations for filling the space on the basis of them;
• A new bracelet can be selected according to the length of the old one, taking into account the fact that the product could increase in length per centimeter during the process of wearing:
• The Pandora Essence collection is different from other products in all respects. Bracelets are not suitable for wrapping conventional charms, and beads are not suitable for wearing on a regular basis;
• The natural properties of the skin make bracelets from it more capricious to the conditions of storage and use. Depending on climate change, leather products can shrink and stretch;
• Any Pandora bracelet should be protected from contact with water, especially salty;
• In order to avoid deformation of the decoration, it is recommended to take it off before going to bed and during sports activities;
• It is better to keep the decoration in the original box, away from moisture and direct sunlight;
• Bangle bracelet does not stretch over time, but fits closer to the hand with an increase in the number of beads and pendants on it.

There is nothing difficult to assemble a decoration, and there is no universal solution, because the final result depends on taste preferences, sense of proportion and style, age and character of each girl. However, there are some recommendations regarding the appearance of the jewelry.:

• A bracelet is considered to be filled if it contains from 15 to 20 elements, including stoppers, pendants and dividers;
• Leather and multi-level bracelets are recommended to be decorated with 7-9 balls, no more;
• The beads on the base must be combined with a certain idea or color range;
• All elements of the same material can merge into a solid silver or gold mass, so they are recommended to be diluted with glass pendants, ornaments with stones or enamel;
• The combination of two bracelets from different textures looks beautiful and stylish if they are not overloaded with charms;
• It is advisable to put only one bright accent. For example, a few Murano beads or a charm pendant;
• It is not necessary to try to fill the entire space of the base with beads. Minimalistic models look elegant and concise, and therefore more advantageous;
• The larger the bracelet, the less other jewelry should be on the arm.

To decorate a bracelet with charms, you need to open it. The manufacturing company has provided for this purpose a separate accessory - a universal key to the locks. It is made in the form of a clover petal on a leather cord. The petals are slightly curved inward, and their edges are very thin, which makes the opening process easy and fast, and the product does not deteriorate with scratches, as from coins, nail files and other devices.

Again closing the lock, it is important to adjust the position of the end of the bracelet in it. The lock can be latched only after it has fallen into place and is completely inside, otherwise there is a risk of product breakage.

To distinguish the original product from the replica can be by the presence of proprietary signs of authenticity. First, it is the image of a small crown above the letter “O” on the clasp of the bracelet. Secondly, the manufacturer's stamps: s925 ale on silver, g585 on gold and ale r on rose gold models. If the bracelet is made of two metals, it should be marked with silver, as it is considered silver with the addition of gold. There is no stamp on the gold part.

The third distinguishing feature is the clover on the lock of the bracelet.

But replicas are very high quality, so you should also pay attention to the material and weight of the product. A precious metal bracelet will not be magnetized, unlike a fake, and its weight will significantly exceed a stainless steel pacifier or other cheap material.

Jewelry requires special care and Pandora bracelets as well. In order not to often have to expose the product to cleaning, it is very important to store it in a dry and dark place, and to protect it from water and aggressive chemicals during wear. However, it is impossible to foresee everything, besides silverware inevitably darkens with time from contact with the skin due to the fact that the alloy contains copper.

You can clean a darkened or yellowed bracelet in several ways: take it to a workshop where it will be treated with a sound device, or use home-made products.

At home, the following methods are used to clean metals:

• Soda solution. The product is immersed for 12 hours in warm water with the addition of baking soda, then rinsed under running water and wiped dry;
• Soap solution. Suitable solid or liquid cosmetic soap, dishwashing detergent. The decoration must be kept in a soap and water solution for 30 minutes, then cleaned with a soft brush and dried;
• Dentifrice. A thick mixture of water and powder is applied to the product with a brush, after a brief polishing, washed off with water. The method is not suitable for bracelets with elements of pearls.

Pandora bracelets are admired even by those who do not have them yet. Among the main advantages, note the originality of the idea, accuracy of execution, reliability of the lock and parts, unique beauty and the ability to create individual decoration. An interesting process is the purchase and layout of the bracelet.Especially appreciated is that it is not just a universal decoration, but the ability to turn it into a talisman or memory of important events in life.

In theory, one can talk endlessly about the beauty and virtues of Pandora bracelets, but how they look in life:

• The tenderness of the silver charms and the depth of the color of glass muranos.
• Bright and luxurious solution.
• A bold combination of colors and textures.

• The combination of charms and woven basics of leather.
• Beauty is in simplicity.
• Focus on elegant wrist.
