Kate Spade Gold-Tone Bangle Bracelet vs Classic Gold Bangle Cuff

Buy the Kate Spade bangle if you want a recognizable designer piece with a slide closure and a pouch, and you treat it as fashion jewelry. Buy the Classic Gold Bangle if you want a solid, sized bangle that holds up to daily wear, water and perfume. The Kate Spade is gold-tone plated over base metal with a slide fit, so plating wear and a loose fit are the usual risks. The Classic Gold Bangle is 14K gold filled over a hinged opening, sized in three wrist measurements, and rated 4.9 from 732 ratings, with owners calling it well made and tarnish-free.

• Choose the Kate Spade New York bangle if you want a branded gold-tone bangle with a slide closure and a pouch, and you accept plated fashion jewelry that needs care.
• Choose the Classic Gold Bangle if you want a sized, hinged bangle in 14K gold fill that resists water, sweat and tarnish for everyday wear.
