14k Gold-Filled Graduated Two Pearl Bangle
14k Gold-Filled Graduated Two Pearl Bangle
This 14K Gold-Filled Graduated Two Pearl Bangle is handmade by Andrea Li: a hand-fabricated 12 gauge 14k gold-filled bangle set with two graduated freshwater pearls -- an 8-8.4 mm grade-A pearl paired with a smaller 4.5-4.8 mm grade-A pearl -- from Aglow, her modular collection of barely-there, naked jewelry built to be stacked, layered, and lived in.
The graduation is the whole point. The larger pearl anchors the composition and the smaller one echoes it, close but not identical, so the eye moves between them naturally. Both pearls are grade A, chosen for their luster and smooth, even nacre -- the qualities that register as quality without requiring explanation. The 12 gauge 14k gold-filled wire is heavy enough to hold its round shape through daily wear and light enough to feel like nothing on your wrist.
Pearls are soft, around 2.5 to 3 on the Mohs scale, and they ask for a little care: slide this bangle on after lotion, perfume, and sunscreen, take it off before washing your hands, and wipe it with a soft cloth when you remove it. Stored away from harder stones and metals, the nacre holds its luster for years.
Sizing: Small = approximately 7 1/2 inches; Medium = approximately 8 1/4 inches; Large = approximately 8 5/8 inches.

Product Specs -
• Hand-fabricated 12 gauge 14k gold-filled bangle with 8-8.4 mm grade A and 4.5-4.8mm grade-A freshwater pearls.
How to Determine Your Bangle Bracelet Size
Close your fingers together, bringing your thumb and little finger together (as though putting on a bangle).
Using a strip of paper or measuring tape, measure around your closed hand at the widest point, pulling the tape snug against your skin. If you are using a plain strip of paper, mark the paper with a pen, then measure the strip with a ruler. This is the circumference of your hand. Match your hand circumference to your bangle size below.
>>> Small = Approximately 7 1/2’’
>>> Medium = Approximately 8 1/4’’
>>> Large = Approximately 8 5/8’’
