The Figaro chain's rhythm is what makes it. Three short, curb-style links, then one long one. This pattern breaks up the visual weight of the chain, so even at 10mm wide, it doesn't look like just a heavy chunk of silver on your wrist.
This is a 10mm wide Figaro bracelet made of polished sterling silver. The chain follows a repeating pattern of three tightly-knit, twisted links followed by one longer, stretched-out oval link. Each link is flattened, so the entire bracelet lies flat against the skin. Light hits the high-polish facets on every link, creating a constant play of bright reflections. It closes with a solid lobster clasp for a secure fit.
We make this bracelet from solid 925 sterling silver, not plated. The "925" means it's 92.5% pure silver, with the rest being an alloy that adds strength. Pure silver is actually quite soft, so this blend makes the bracelet durable enough for daily wear. Because it's solid silver all the way through, the colour will never chip or flake off. If it starts to tarnish over time, a quick polish will bring back that bright, white shine, good as new.

People choose this Figaro when they want something with real presence. At 10mm, it’s a substantial width that you'll feel on your wrist. It's a classic for a reason—the alternating link pattern gives it more character than a simple curb chain, but it's still clean and uncomplicated.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will this 925 sterling silver Figaro bracelet tarnish or turn my skin green?
Yes, all sterling silver will tarnish over time when exposed to air and moisture, but it's easily cleaned. It very rarely turns skin green; that's more common with copper or brass. We include a polishing cloth, and regular cleaning will keep its bright, white finish.
Is it safe to wear my silver Figaro bracelet in the shower or while swimming?
You can, but we don't recommend making it a habit. Water itself isn't a huge problem, but soaps, shampoos, and especially chlorine in pools will accelerate tarnishing and dull the finish. It's best to take it off before you get in the water to keep it looking new.
How do I measure my wrist to get the right size for the 10mm Figaro bracelet?
Use a flexible measuring tape and wrap it snugly around your wrist where you'd wear the bracelet. Add about 1.5cm to 2.5cm (a half-inch to an inch) to that measurement for a comfortable fit. This extra length accounts for the thickness of the 10mm chain.
What happens if the silver bracelet doesn't fit or I change my mind?
We accept returns within 30 days of delivery for any reason. Just email us at returns@vanhess.ca, and we'll send you a prepaid shipping label. The bracelet must be in its original, unworn condition. We'll process a full refund once we receive it back at our studio.
How long does it take to ship my bracelet to the US, and is it free?
