What bracelet to give to a man?
For men, the bangle is a must-have. Its thickness brings a touch of virility to the jewel while offering a large surface area of shine. The bangle in light metal such as silver or white gold goes perfectly with a masculine style that appeals to women. The silver bangle bracelet will be at a lower price. A chain bracelet in large or medium links of the gourmette type can also be very popular. And finally, for a more casual and light style, acordblack or red is perfect. Indeed, dark and discreet shades are very suitable for work as well as at home, and go perfectly with all outfits, both casual and dressy. Certain stones are also very popular. The essential ones are tiger's eye, lapis lazuli, which can be found in the form of beads or plates, and can be purchased at more reasonable prices. The black pearl is also a rare and extremely popular mineral in men's jewelry and offers elegance and mystery. At Bäumer Vendôme, themen's collectionoffers many jewels to discover, also accessories that will match perfectly, likepins, tie pins, watches, or evencufflinks.
How do I clean my bracelet?
There are many ways to clean it, depending on its material. In most cases, cleaning care must be carried out carefully. This can be done in a jeweler's (polishing, rhodium plating), but a few simple techniques will allow you to clean your jewelry directly at home.
To clean yellow gold and restore its shine, it is possible to wash it with simple, low-cost products:
- water with Marseille soap for all types of metal
- toothpaste, leaving to dry then rinsing with lukewarm water between the stitches
- water and baking soda
- white vinegar or a little dishwashing liquid in lukewarm water
As with silver, there are also special wipes that can be purchased directly from any jeweler.
For white and pink gold, it is important to clean them more delicately to preserve their color. Their maintenance therefore requires more care: we recommend soaking the gold part in a bowl of warm soapy water for 1 to 2 minutes maximum; then wiping it with a soft, clean cloth. This gentler and more attentive care will preserve all the shine of the gold. It is also advisable to have a new rhodium plating applied every 1 or 2 years to maintain the whiteness of the gold.
For a chain bracelet, it is advisable to gently clean the space between each link with a soft toothbrush to remove any small plaque of deposits.
For a fabric or leather strap, it is best to avoid prolonged contact with water so that it does not retain moisture. It is important to dry the fabric well after cleaning. Indeed, if moisture develops, the fabric will be more fragile and bacteria can easily develop. A leather strap can become stained or weakened following contact with water or alcohol.
Finally, for jewelry decorated with stones such as tiger's eye, opal, or even with pearls, it is important to take special precautions: hot water can damage the minerals, or prolonged contact with water. It is also advisable not to use soap that is too greasy, which will attack the chemical composition of certain minerals.
What material should I choose for my bracelet?
Gold gives the jewelry a long life and a beautiful shine. Yellow gold is the most resistant to chemicals, like white and pink gold. However, with the proper precautions and maintenance, these last two are choices offering a unique shine and an original mesh.
The fabric or leather strap offers great lightness. Its price is also lower. Although this material is less resistant, its ease offers the possibility of changing color at will for a constant touch of novelty.
We also find in eachbraceletfrom Maison Bäumer essential materials to be new, such as a collection in titanium or blackened gold. Titanium offers great resistance and lightness, and by its chemical properties, it has great possibilities of colors (blue, orange, gray, red). It is also used in beads, or in the form of plate or mesh. Titanium meshes offer a unique appearance to the metal bracelet. Sterling silver is a lower-cost alternative to gold. It can offer a beautiful shine but tends to oxidize easily. Its lower preciousness makes it less easy to associate with expensive crystals such as ruby or sapphire. Conversely, silver is found in mesh or bangle and goes well in plate with leather, or even with pearls.
Finally, the choice of the stone adorning the bracelet is one of the crucial steps. On a small bracelet, discreet stones like small diamonds or a pearl are very chic and an excellent choice. For larger pieces, a beautiful stone can blend perfectly with the entire piece of jewelry and enhance the person wearing it. A large aquamarine like in the Black Magic Supernova model brings a superb touch of originality and enhances a woman's outfit.

How to store bracelets properly?
To store them properly, it is necessary to take into account the way the bracelet is made so as not to damage its mesh or twist the metal. To do this, the best thing is to attach them to a cylindrical support that takes the shape of your wrist. This can be in the open air but the ideal is a closed box protected from the sun, with if possible a chamois leather to protect the gold and minerals. It is also advisable to avoid metal supports. Indeed, these can scratch your jewelry pieces. So be sure to always choose supports made of velvet, leather or soft fabrics to preserve the condition of your precious metals and not to tangle the mesh. Pearls require essential attention because they are more fragile.
A bracelet for women as a gift
The bracelet is an ideal gift for a woman. It goes perfectly with all styles and is easily adjustable. Indeed, it is easy to remove links to narrow it and those in fabric are adjustable. Unlike the necklace, it is easy to wear several, creating infinite combinations of choice and novelty. A simple design (a pearl, a heart) is sometimes very effective and at a more reasonable price. The chained or inseparable heartbeat models are wise choices for a gift to a woman. Their sobriety and elegance are very popular and easily match all outfits and all seasons. They can also be associated withearrings, THEringsor thenecklacesfrom the same collections, and therefore come to create a whole assortment.
