    I really like both types, the colours and pattern are brilliant

    Personally though I would prefer to wear the anti clastic as I like the shape and curves...they are just more my style..but they are all lovely

    Like them both (wraparound edging for looks) but I'm afraid would wear neither....
    As a person with small hands and wrists, the wide bangles just drown me..
    Love the colours and patterns though, will there be narrow cuff style bangles too?
    How about panel bracelets with a chain for sizing? Encompases more variety in sizing..

    Sorry, hope thats OK to say...they are gorgeous though and I love the colours you've achieved!

    I hadn't thought about panel styles. That's given me food for thought. Thanks for all the feedback. I'll do both styles I think. I also plan to do earrings, pendants and rings plus a charm bracelet with multi coloured circles.

    I had a chat with a gallery that stocks both types yesterday. She said that some people found the wraparounds difficult to get on. They're not really difficult as they're so flexible but it may put some people off. I'll definitely do both types, I think.

    She also said she had a customer who complained that the colours had run on her bangle. She tried to explain that that was how they had been painted and that the colours were sealed into the surface. I think that may be a problem for me ie that people won't understand the processes used and think that the colours will come off. When people look at them I do explain how they're made but I can see people's eyes glazing over. Maybe I need a sign but I don't think people read signs either.

    Perhaps you could supply a sticker to go with the packaging to explain that this a handmade piece and the colours are always different etc etc i know it is just somehting else to do but might help with peoples understanding

    Default Anti wins..

    The colours on both look fantastic but i'd be more likely to try on the anticlastic ones - they look more comfortable and could you wear more than one (very in at the mo)
