Looking for 18kt gold plain slip-on Bangle Bracelet

tbbbjb · Aug 31st, 2008, 01:21 PM

Good Morning all.

I am having the hardest time locating a simple 18kt yellow gold plain slip-on Bangle Bracelet. I do not want plated, etc. I want it to be of a good weight, around 16 grams or so and 4mm wide. Tiffany's makes one, but they are having problems locating one in the yellow gold for me. They have white and rose readily available. I also do not know that I want to pay the mark-up for the Tiffany name since it isn't a special piece. It is really generic. Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas?

I have attached a photo from the one at Tiffany's, to give you an idea as to how basic it really is.

Thanks so much!

This is lighter than you wanted, but along the same lines & significantly less price-wise. Could you have a local jeweler custom make you something?

I had one of these & it got banged up. See if you can find one that is not hollow inside.
Mine ended up as scrap metal.

That is exactly why I wanted the weighter one.

Thanks for the idea of Blue Nile, I had already checked them out and ruled them out because of the weight.

I have contacted 2 companies to see if they can custom make it for me (although, I just found them on-line and do not know if their work is any good), but again it seems kind-of silly because it is so simple. I should just be able to find one. Urghh.. my search continues.

Thanks for your comments, I really do appreciate them!
