Frequently Asked Questions
An 18ct yellow gold cable or belcher chain - This metal choice matches the colour of the charm to the bracelet for colour cohesion. The link styles of belcher and cables chains are strong, evenly spaced, and usually soldered closed, so they handle the weight of multiple charms, let the charms move freely, and make additions or removals easy over time.
Start with theme that reflects your story or interests - Many collectors pick milestones (travel, birthdays) or visual themes (animals, letters) and balance sizes so the bracelet hangs evenly. Mixing textures and finishes keeps the design interesting while still cohesive.
No, 18ct yellow gold charms are not magnetic. Gold won’t stick to a magnet unless the alloy contains significant iron, nickel, or cobalt. Clasps or jump rings made with base-metal springs may attract weakly, but the charm itself will not.
Anywhere from AU $160 to AU $1,000+ per charm. Price varies with gold purity, weight & craftsmanship. Heavier 18ct pieces or pure 24ct gold charms command the highest premiums, while lightweight 9ct charms are more affordable.
