Baby Bangle Styles

A baby bangle is a traditional precious keepsake, but which style should you choose? You may know if you'd like sterling silver or 9ct yellow, rose or white gold, but take the confusion out of choosing the right baby bangle style with Giddy Aunt's "Bangles Made Simple" points!

 

 

 

Solid Baby Bangles

Tubular Baby Bangles

This means they are very affordable but hollow bangles can't be easily resized, and are usually kept as a baby size keepsake or passed on to the next baby in the family.

 

 

 

Opening and Hinged Baby Bangles

Baby Cuffs & Torques

Expanding Baby Bangles

An expanding bangle is a popular style made out of a solid piece of metal that still has a little flexibility. 

 

 

 

 

 

All Oh My Giddy Aunt's baby bangles can be personalised with hand engraving or additional charms.  Flat and Half-Round bangles can be laser engraved with messages too!

Baby bangles are jewellery not toys, and it is important that children under three only wear jewellery under adult supervision.  Jewellery should always be removed when baby is playing, sleeping or in the water.
