Anklet Length: What Fits and What Falls Off

An anklet should rest on the ankle bone without gripping it. The right number is usually your ankle plus a little.
Measuring
Wrap a tape around the ankle bone and read the number. Add one to two centimetres so the anklet sits on the skin rather than against it. Most women take 24 to 27 cm.
Fine or heavy
A fine chain disappears and is worn all summer. A beaded or charm anklet is meant to be seen and heard, and wants the looser end of the range.
Water and wear
Solid gold is untroubled by a swim. Rinse off salt or chlorine in fresh water and dry it before putting it away. Silver will darken faster in sea water, which is only a polish away from being fixed.
How we make and mark it
Every piece here is made for ONLYWAY JEWELRY in London and, where the law requires it, hallmarked at the London Assay Office. The hallmark is not decoration: it is an independent test of the metal, struck by an assay office rather than by the maker. What the marks mean.
The price on the page is the price you pay. Delivery within the United Kingdom is tracked and included, and you have thirty days to send a piece back. Delivery and returns.
