IHSI-02 - "Motorcycle Chain" Bracelet - Sterling Silver
-
can anyone comment on how this bracelet is holding up? does it scratch easily? just got mine and i want to keep it looking nice for as long as possible. thx
Any piece of silver, as G basically says, will develop knocks and scrapes, but it is all part of developing the character of a piece.
The two key rules that I follow for looking after my jewellery are pretty basic:
-
Store it properly and separately from other pieces (i.e. At the end of a day if you are going to chuck it into a bag with a bunch of other bits of jewellery in - as one of my mates does - it will get knocked about).
-
Think about where you are going for the day. For example, If you know that you are going to a Death metal concert and you want to clothesline people in the mosh pit, Probably best not to wear it (or at the very least take it off).
Other than that I would just wear the hell out of it as it will add character and, in my humble opinion, silver looks better with a but of age and a few knocks.

I have had mine for about a year and haven't taken it off. It keeps getting better with wear. No cleaning or any special care. Just wear it and don't think about it. You could always get a clean and polish at a jewelry store if you want it to look new again.

What do you guys think about pairing IHSI-02 bracelet with GoodArt model 25 "Rock lock" ring, same side hand? I already own the bracelet, but had my eye on this ring for some time now.

Why wouldn't you? I think they would pair especially well.

I have a silly question for anyone who owns this bracelet.
Does this bracelet pull hairs on your arm? ??? -
I Haven't had any hair pulls. Very comfortable to wear.

Thanks Sage954!
I've read all pages of this topic but still not quite sure about size. I understand that the current 2 different size option is something new. Before that there was only regular size with the option to add more small rings?
I have a wrist circumference of 18.5cm. I don't want a snug fit. Does this mean I should go for long, not regular?

Done

@hajduk Looks great! I like the "never cleaned" look.

I need to shorten mine and have not decided if it’s better to remove 2 links or some of the small loops. I’ve got the following questions regarding this decision.
(1) Can a normal silversmith remove the links or is this a very difficult process?
(2) If some small loops are removed will that make it difficult to insert the clasp when putting it on?
