Yes I have the bracelet. So far I have the clips, the 3 pave covered charms, the carriage, and the Pandora's box. I was thinking of getting the bear my heart charm. It's the cute bear with the gold heart on it's stomach. Hopefully I'll get the heart charm and the diamond daisy for my birthday, fingers crossed. But I have a much larger collection. I have the multistrand bracelet with the da Vinci clip. A champagne leather bracelet with a few charms, and I'm gonna get a bangle to hold my other charms.
its look like you have a good collection, i will love to see some pics
,i love the bear with the gold charm but it think it was a limited edition so i don't know if is it easy to find one.
how the multistrand bracelet looks on a wrist? i love the look of the bracelet, i will be very happy
if you could take a pic someday when you'll have time, this bracelet catch my eyes the first time i see it, but i don't know IRL how it will look likeOh personally I love the multistrand! I will definitely post all my stuff soon. I have a small wrist so I got the smallest size. They only have 3 size choices,17cm, 19cm, and 21 cm.
Definitely worth the money. It really is beautiful. The pandora associate told me that the multistrand should only be cleaned using the polishing cloth because it's much more delicate silver. But I always get compliments when I wear it. It's actually very light and doesn't bother my wrist at all, I thought the chains would be a bother but they aren't. And surprisingly they chains don't get tangled too easily, but if they tangle it's easy to untangle.

I'm so sorry about your baby boy. That kind of loss never leaves you. The tattoo is *beautiful*.
Have you seen this Redbalifrog charm:

It fits on Pandora bracelets and a couple gals on this thread have it.
I'm a big fan of Redbalifrog charms and combine them with Pandora ones, although the Redbalifrog ones tend to be a bit larger. The detail on the charms is amazing.
It's difficult to know what to do about a safety chain. If you don't like the look, you're going to find it difficult to wear?
I also see what you mean about having more gold charms, so you have the bracelet looking the way you want, but then don't feel you can wear it when you want! But it's a shame to deny other people a chance to see your lovely bracelet
It is difficult! I am not crazy about dangly things in general and find the choice of chains limiting. I once bought 790315, the one that has some oxidation as it looks a bit more abstract, but I didn't like the look and it went back. I almost wish they made a plain one, I want the functinality of a safety chain without affecting my design too much.
Thank you! I am more pleased with it now that I reintroduced the Murano. I like white and gold together.
Thanks again Missydora, you gave me the idea so it's credit to you. I"ll try wearing it tomorrow and see if I can put up with the moving dangles.
I really ought to get a safety chain for the other bracelet as I invested a lot into it, but I am one of thise who doesn't like the look!Do you have any suggestions as to which one might go?
Thanks Stumbeline, I"ll try to take some shots! The dangles do move a lot so I don't know how I feel about it yet. I will find out tomorrow, though it might be best to wear out of the office as it could interfere with typing with all the charm movement.
By the way, I hear your point about not wearing the gold bracelet everyday. Now that I have more gold charms on mine, it is starting to look more like my dream bracelet but it is also preventing me from wearing it regularly, as it just seems too glitzy for every day.
Umm I had a look at safety chains that might look good on your bracelet and to b honest there isn't really any that would really suit your bracelet their not abstract enough to suit the edgy modern/fluid look you have achieved. The other alternative if your worried about the snake chain breaking and losing your pride and joy is to transfer to a bangle no need for chain then. Depends wether you like a full bracelet in a round rigid shape. I personallly am ok with it nearly full up on a bangle as I prefer the round look which I stack with another bangle which has one dangle. It's a more structured look which I like. But I also think on a bangle leaving the arrangement of charms you have on the bracelet the two beads either side on a round clasp of the bangle will suit the two barrel shape beads you will have either side (if you get what I mean???) I'm not very articulate today I'm rather panda like. Oh and I was going to lastly say if the dangles has been annoying you on your other bangle maybe moving the clips further apart might help. You should so wear your dream bracelet with pride they so deserve to be seen and admired not hidden away!!!! It's a piece of art you have created
Thanks Missydora
I will try the clips further on mine. I haven't yet tried wearing the bangle with the dangles as I have a mental block towards it.
Regarding safety chains, you totally summarised how I feel. I don't feel there is "the one" out there. I like the gold one but it is out of my budget.
You also really picked up on my taste, I am torn between edgy with simple lines and elegant - I don't like things that are too fiddly,detailed or pretty, although there are a few exceptions
I love your comment about feeling like a panda
Hey thanks for looking for a chain for me, how thoughtful! I have been doing the same thing! I think I'll wait for a new design to come out. I'd definitely prefer a two-tone, but don't feel the hearts suit me. Thanks again for keeping me in mind!
I think the wires got somehow crossed here between posts but I totally hear you. I too would love a two tone but don't care for hearts. I am surprised that Pandora didn't opt for a more generic design for their only two to e chain.
Hey the oxidised with the gold clasp is included in the UK sale! Jewel first also sell it at half price.
Hmm I will have a think and let you know. I don't really have a dealer per se but try to make educated guesses based on feedback, pics etc. just this week I got a charm but that was through Jewel First - they also have an eBay store that seems to have items not listed on their website.
Ladies I have to tell you there's a good sale on a website called Republic of Jewels I have just ordered 2 gold rib clips and gold heart dangle all for £132 free uk delivery is based in Ireland they are authorised pandora stocikist there's not much left! It's better discount than pandora concept store. I can't wait to receive my first goldie
Gosh, there are so many ways to buy Pandora! It was an interesting read seeing all of ours different purchasing habits and channels.
I have to say that I have been lucky and never had a bad experience with a fake charm, but I am really careful. I just bought through ebay but from a genuine stockist (jewel first) that has an ebay store front.
I never tried any of those shopping clubs, how do you know when they have Pandora sales?
