Measure your wrist
Wrap a strip of paper or a tape measure around your wrist just below the wrist bone, where the bracelet will sit. Mark the overlap and measure it flat. That is your wrist circumference.
Add ease
A bracelet should move, not grip. Add to your wrist measurement:
- Half an inch for a snug fit, typical for a tennis bracelet where you want the stones to stay facing up.
- Three quarters of an inch for a comfortable everyday fit on a chain bracelet.
- One inch for a loose, draping fit on a heavier chain.

Tennis bracelets in particular
A tennis bracelet carries stones all the way round, so a loose fit lets it rotate and the stones end up facing your wrist. Err on the snug side. If it spins, it is too big.
