I have done a search, but there doesn't seem to be anywhere where information about charms is centrally located. I recently bought a charm bracelet and I am now looking for charms, but I really am not sure where to look.

I am familiar with Tiffany and Juicy. From my search I've found Links of London and someone suggested Jay Strongwater. But aside from those four, I cannot find anything else. There must be other places that have cute and detailed charms!

I lean towards gold charms and I like the intricate kinds that are 3D with moving parts. Can anyone suggest somewhere that carries them? Either new or vintage is fine, and I am open to reputable *bay dealers, too. Brand name isn't terribly important to me, and I am also open to beautiful charms that aren't gold (like the Strongwater charms), so I will be happy with all suggestions. Thank you!

Cartier also has charms. I know what you mean about finding charms, it's not very easy especially if you're looking for the 3D/movable ones or something specific.

I started a charm bracelet for my daughter....collected during our travels...and the memories are timeless. You can add on as you go along (flea markets, small shops...). Today, friends and family contribute to this wonderful work in progress. For something a little more special you can try Aaron Basha??

Here are two eBay sellers that I've bought charms from before.. both sell incredibly detailed, very cute stuff.

Gold charms:
http://stores.shop.ebay.com/Gold-cha...__W0QQ_armrsZ1

Silver charms:
http://stores.ebay.com/SILVER-CONFETTI-CHARMS

One year I got an easter egg charm that actually came with little foil wrapped "chocolates" inside from Silver Confetti.. their stuff is a little more whimsical than then gold charms.

Thanks for the additional suggestions. Cedes, those gold charms in *bay are really something! I like quite a number of them! moto, the arron basha ones are adorable, but probably not quite as realistic for my price range, but thanks for the suggestions. I love looking at them!

Not gold I'm afraid but Thomas Sabo do some great charms.

I like the Thomas Sabo charms too...

tresjoliebags · May 10th, 2009, 02:16 AM

I'm really into gold charms too! I usally hunt for a charm that represents the city/country when traveling but when I can't find one, usually head to World of Charms: http://www.worldofcharms.com/categor...elcomeHome.htm.

I also like the stuff C.H.A.R.M. has to offer: http://www.charmco.com/jump.aspx

Hope this helps!
