Historically, charm bracelets were worn as amulets or talismans to ward off evil spirits and bad luck. The ancient Egyptians wore charms for identification or as symbols of their faith, and medieval knights wore them for protection in battle. In the dark ages, charms often represented political or religious beliefs, or family origins, and this is still sometimes the case today. The use of charms themselves is thought to have originated as far back as the Neolithic era, where certain stones or plants were carried to protect the bearer.

Charm bracelets can, of course, be simply decorative, however the majority of wearers have collected the charms individually over the course of their lifetime, each one commemorating a significant event or person. Because of this, charm bracelets are often treasured family heirlooms which are passed down through the generations, which, if they are good quality, can fetch staggering sums at antique auctions.

Charm bracelets are often made of either gold or silver, but some cheaper varieties are available in baser metals. Charm collecting can be as expensive or as affordable as you make it: although vintage gold charms can sell for more than $400 each, there are plenty of delightful pieces available for only a few dollars.

Charms can be found in catalogues, high-end fashion boutiques and department stores. With perseverance, more interesting and unusual finds are often available in antique shops and flea markets, or for those with little time on their hands, many online stores now offer the facility to design and purchase a customised charm bracelet online.
