Description
The Italian Charm Bracelet from Joanne Gigliotti is timeless, classic, appropriate, and chic for women and girls of all ages. It's the perfect gift, because the charms are interlocking, interchangeable stainless steel links. Italian charm bracelets are modular in design, easily sized by adding or subtracting a charm.
This Italian Charm Bracelet is made up of 9 Stainless Steel, Mega Charms, each 18mm x 20mm, coated with the white patented cover to process the metal to make it imprintable. The original batik tile design is printing on the surface of the charm using the method of Dye-Sublimation. This process uses a combination of a digital method, and sequential heat treated curing which makes the product impervious to temperature and is UV and UVB protected.
Can be enlarged or made smaller with addition or omission of tile.
