Vintage jewelry has been the big trend for a few seasons now. With the festive season fast approaching, we decided to create a new collection combining vintage jewelry and crystals: Le Bal d'Hiver. This jewelry set takes us straight to a London ball worthy of The Bridgerton Chronicle, don't you think? This new collection is perfect for accessorizing your festive outfits for the fast-approaching holiday season! You can also give the materials to make one of these tutorials as a gift for a passionate designer, or make them yourself.
In this tutorial, discover how to make a vintage double-link bracelet with Aurora-set crystal. To make this piece of jewelry, you'll need Aurora crystal A4627, two lengths of brass fancy chain, two weaving tips, a lobster clasp, round head nails and open rings. For the tools, you'll need cutting pliers, flat-nose pliers and round-tipped pliers for forming loops. This tutorial is accessible to beginners and is quick to complete. You can also personalize your bracelet! Here are two variations: one with a dark red crystal and one with a grey crystal. The Aurora A4627 18x13 mm crystal-set reference also exists in several other colors, which you can find in the product variations, under the list of materials. All you have to do is choose your favorite! So, grab your pliers!

Measure 6cm of chain. This measurement should be adapted according to the size of your wrist. In my case, my wrist is 14cm.
Cut 4 pieces of 6 cm chain using wire cutters.
Slide two round-headed nails through the holes in the back of the Aurora crystal.
To make a loop, use wire cutters to cut about 2 cm off the round-headed nails.
Using flat-nose pliers, bend the protruding part of the set crystal at 90°.
Then form a loop with round-tipped pliers.
If you don't know how to form a loop, you can consult our How to form a loop on a nail or jewelry pin datasheet .
Open and slide an open ring onto one of the nail's loops.
Repeat for the remaining three chain ends.
Open and slide an open ring onto each end of your chains.
Then attach a weaving tip to each side of your bracelet, closing your rings in the tip holes.
The two end caps should be positioned like this.
To finish, open and slide an open ring onto one of the two end pieces and add your clasp. Your bracelet is finished!
This bracelet is of course customizable! I chose a gray Aurora setting for a second variation of the bracelet.
