Is 999 gold good for a bangle you wear often?

999 gold is the purest common gold, but it is soft. It dents and scratches more than 18-karat or 22-karat gold, so it holds up best for occasional wear.

How does it compare with a 22-karat bangle?

It has higher gold purity and a deeper yellow color. A 22-karat bangle is harder and more resistant to dents, which many people prefer for daily wear.

Will the coin charms bend?

The coins are made of the same soft 24-karat gold, so they can bend or dent if knocked. Treat the bangle gently when putting it on and taking it off.

A solid 999 gold bangle is difficult to resize without a specialist goldsmith, and the work risks marking the metal. Choose the size that fits your wrist from the start.

How should I care for it?

Store it separately in a soft pouch to limit scratches, and keep it away from perfume and chlorine. A soft cloth is enough for cleaning; skip abrasive polishes.
