Bangles vary from light 8g pieces to heavy 35g+ solid cuffs. Stackable bangles are often lighter.
Solid bangles can exceed 30g; stackable 9K sets should be weighed as the set you intend to sell.
For a typical weight in the common range, ~10 g of 18K gold might melt around £777.96 at current spot in pounds—highly variable by actual weight and condition.
Common variations that change weight
- Length and link style drive chain weight; the same style can vary by size class.
- Clasps and tags may be different fineness or steel—buyers may test or deduct them.
18K (750) is the premium UK fineness for many fine jewellers—common on engagement rings and higher-end pieces.
