A charm is a small decorative pendant, such as a heart, initial, star, evil eye or religious symbol, that hangs from a bracelet, necklace, anklet or bag. Yes, you can order charm bracelets from Rajkot. Makers can cast or stamp the charms, plate them, and assemble them on chains with a clasp, either in their own designs or yours.
How charms are made
Most charms are cast in brass or alloy from a rubber mould, or stamped from sheet metal with a die. Casting suits three-dimensional shapes with detail, while stamping suits flat, simple shapes in large volumes. Both are explained in our guide to casting, stamping and die-making.
Charms are then plated, and sometimes enamelled or set with small stones. A jump ring attaches each charm to the chain, and the strength of that small ring decides whether charms stay on.
Ways to order
- Finished charm bracelets with a fixed set of charms.
- Single-charm bracelets, popular for gifting and personalisation.
- Loose charms in bulk, for your own assembly or for a build-your-own bracelet offer.
- Initial or zodiac series, where one design comes in many versions.
Points to agree with the maker
- Jump ring thickness and whether rings are soldered closed.
- Plating colour match between charms, chain and clasp.
- Edges smooth enough not to scratch skin or snag clothing.
- Packing that keeps charms from tangling, such as one bracelet per bag.
What this means for a buyer
Charms are cheap to make once a mould exists, so a series of designs on one chain style is an efficient way to build a range.
