How Much are Vintage Silver Bangles?

Finding the Right Bangles for You

Today, it would be tough to track down a jewelry lover who doesn’t have a stack of vintage bangles and other bracelets ready to go for any occasion.

People have worn bangles and other bracelets for centuries. Examples can be found in the wide range of personal adornments favored by the Ancient Egyptians, some of whom wore bracelets and armlets made of gold and flecked with gemstones such as lapis and turquoise.

Fashion has evolved over the years, but the popularity of bangles has remained the same. Jewelry makers have created cuffs in all manner of styles, and no matter what your taste, you can find antique and vintage diamond bangles, ruby bangles, emerald bangles and more to suit you and to pair with any of your favorite ensembles. And although “bracelets” and “bangles” are often used interchangeably, there is a difference between the two.

Bangles are solid, one-piece bands that are always characterized by their rigid ring shape. Today, they’re made of metal, plastic, wood or other materials. Because this cuff is a solid piece, you have to slide it over your hand. Bracelets, however, are flexible pieces. Whether they’re charm bracelets, link bracelets, beaded bracelets or another variety, you open and close a bracelet at its ends, where it locks around your wrist with a clasp.

Bracelets and bangles suit most anyone, and there’s a style of bangle for every occasion, whether you’ve opted for an Art Deco bangle, a Victorian-era bangle or another kind. And their versatility doesn’t end there. Jewelry lovers know that when it comes to bangle bracelets (and other kinds of bracelets), you never have to choose just one. Just as you might wear a vintage tennis bracelet by itself or pair it with other thin bracelets, you can opt for a simple pared-down look with a single bangle or go big and stack your sculptural modern bangles to deepen their impact or double up your classic gold bangles and pair them with a T-shirt and jeans or a comfortable cotton day dress.

Browse an extensive collection of vintage bangle bracelets and other bracelets on 1stDibs. Find extraordinary works by iconic jewelry houses such as Cartier, Tiffany Co. and David Webb, or peruse the array of link bracelets, cuff bracelets and diamond bangle bracelets for innumerable accessorizing options.

Questions About Vintage Silver Bangles
  • 1stDibs ExpertMay 3, 2024
    To tell if silver is vintage, locate the hallmarks that identify its maker. Then, use trusted online resources to determine when the maker was active and to look for pieces similar to yours to estimate when it was produced. Generally, silver made 20 to 99 years ago is vintage. Older pieces are antiques, while newer ones are contemporary. A certified appraiser or knowledgeable antiques dealer can help you identify vintage silver. Explore a wide range of silver wares on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 4, 2024
    To identify vintage silver, use the hallmarks on your piece. You will usually find them on the bottoms and interiors of hollowware and decorative objects, as well as on the handles of flatware. Using trusted online resources, research the hallmarks to identify the maker and determine what characteristics to look for when dating its pieces. Employing the recommended dating method, determine the approximate age of your item. It would be considered vintage if it is 20 to 99 years old. Antiques are 100 years old or more, while contemporary pieces date back to the last 20 years. You can also enlist the help of a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer to simplify the process. Find a collection of vintage silver decorative objects on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    “Vintage” is a word used to generally describe items that were made before 1950. “Antique” is a term applied to anything made before 1900. If you have vintage silver, it was likely created between 1900 and 1950. Shop a collection of vintage and antique silver from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 15, 2024
    Whether vintage silverware is real silver or not varies. Some makers producing silverware between 20 and 100 years ago used sterling silver and fine silver as materials. Others produced silver plate silverware, with items being made of a base metal and then finished with a thin layer of genuine silver. Silverware manufacturers also introduced stainless steel flatware during the early 20th century. Researching hallmarks found on your vintage silverware can help you determine whether or not it is real silver. On 1stDibs, shop a collection of vintage silverware.
