When DD1 was 1 we bought her a charm bracelet from Links of London. DD2 is about to turn one and I want to buy her a charm bracelet but Links of London no longer exist. What I am struggling to find is something like this: www.google.com/search?q=links+of+london+charm+carrier+bracelet&client=ms-android-samsung-rvo1&prmd=sivn&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiw3sbcmdH7AhWTh1wKHd3jBLwQ_AUoAnoECAEQAg&biw=384&bih=679&dpr=2.81#imgrc=C3MwuU_1aRYcKM

It needs to be: adult sized, sterling silver, have a toggle clasp and be made of sturdy links for adding lots of charms

Anyone know where I can buy this?

Thank you

Thomas Sabo. Go to the ‘charm club’ section of their website and there are a few similar ones - lots of charms too!

@Pearls1234 - thanks but they have the wrong kind of clasp. I might be wrong but I thought a toggle would be stronger than a lobster clasp when the bracelet is full?

There’s a few Links of London Charm Bracelets on eBay atm.

Why not look at secondhand and some great designs from the 50s, 60s and many a jeweller will have them, or ebay www.ebay.co.uk/itm/115616792190?hash=item1aeb4c3e7e:g:GzQAAOSwneljf74V for example and often heavier weight / better quality silver and can easily be polished up. As for fastening, a good quality bracelet should have something along the lines of the heart lock (good for dealing with being pulled) and looped safety chain and it is the quality and not just the type of fastening that matters. I like a toggle for a more decorative bracelet, but for my charm bracelet have a second hand chain and heart lock and loads of interesting charms from the 60s, which are great fun as many open and are certainly more intricate than many sold today. If you really prefer a toggle, then buy a bracelet you like and any good jeweller will change the fastening for you.

Thanks @TollgateDebs - that's very helpful. My charm bracelet is full of charms from holidays and is heavy so I want it to be sturdy
