Tell Your Story with a Nomination Charm Bracelet
A Nomination charm bracelet serves as a versatile accessory that combines Florentine craftsmanship with modern innovation.
Originally designed in the 1980s by Paolo Gensini, the Composable® system allows you to build a custom piece of jewellery link by link. Each component is crafted from surgical-grade stainless steel, ensuring your bracelet remains resistant to tarnish and comfortable for daily wear.
The beauty of the collection lies in its modularity. You can start with a base bracelet of plain stainless steel links and gradually replace them with decorative charms that represent your life journey.
These links feature a variety of motifs, such as initials, birthstones, and symbols of travel or hobbies, often accented with 18ct gold, 9ct rose gold, or sterling silver. Because the links are interchangeable, you can refresh the look of your bracelet to suit your mood or a specific outfit.
Finding the right fit is simple due to the flexible nature of the spring-loaded mechanism. This design allows the bracelet to stretch over the hand without the need for a traditional clasp, providing a sleek and seamless look on the wrist. If you wish to expand your collection, these pieces work perfectly alongside Nomination watches or other designs from our wider range of bracelets.
At Gift & Wrap, we offer a complete selection of Nomination jewellery to help you coordinate your style. You can discover new Nomination charms to add to your collection, or match your wristwear with coordinated Nomination earrings.

Where is the best place to buy a Nomination bracelet?
You should always purchase from an official stockist such as Gift & Wrap to ensure you receive a genuine Italian-made product. Authentic pieces are delivered in branded packaging with a certificate of authenticity and are backed by the manufacturer's warranty.
How do I open my Nomination bracelet to add a new link?
A Nomination bracelet uses a spring-loaded mechanism that’s designed to be secure, so the links can feel tight and require a firm pull to separate. To open it, pull the links apart as far as you can (don’t worry, they won’t break) to reveal the hook, then slide the new charm in. It can be a little fiddly to master, so we recommend using an official Nomination charm tool (or a sturdy pin) to save your fingernails.
How do I attach a new charm to my Nomination bracelet?
Attaching a new link is the reverse of the opening process. You pull the links on your current bracelet apart to reveal the hook, then slide the hook of your new charm into the opening. Once you release the tension, the spring mechanism pulls the links back together for a secure fit.
How does the modular Nomination bracelet system work?
The bracelet works using a series of interlocking stainless steel links held together by internal springs. This modular design allows the links to be added, removed, or replaced without any specialised tools, giving you total control over the size and design of your jewellery.
How many links do I need for a standard Nomination bracelet?
A standard adult woman's bracelet typically requires 18 links to reach a length of approximately 18cm. For men, a standard size usually consists of 20 to 21 links. However, you can add or remove links as needed to achieve a size that feels comfortable for your specific wrist.
How should I measure my wrist for a Nomination bracelet?
To find your size, you should measure your wrist with a tape measure or a piece of string. Once you have the measurement in centimetres, you can determine the number of links required, as each standard Classic link is approximately 1cm wide. It is often a good idea to add one or two extra links to your measurement for a comfortable fit.
Is it okay to wear my Nomination bracelet every day?
Yes, it’s perfectly fine to wear these bracelets every day. Because they’re made from high-quality stainless steel, they are highly durable and resistant to water, sweat, and corrosion. The spring mechanism is also designed for longevity, making it a reliable choice for constant wear.
