Chrysalis Jewellery with a Difference: Review
If you have been around my blog a while, you will probably know I have a bit of a love for jewellery and I was thrilled when Chrysalis, a British jewellery company, got in touch. The idea behind Chrysalis is to make jewellery, that means something special to the wearer, with each piece in their collection having a specific meaning which is detailed on the product page.
All the jewellery is made to be worn together as well. With the bangles, for instance, being perfect for layering.
Guardian Angel Expandable Ring – £15
I have always had a huge love for rings and I’m normally not a fan of adjustable rings, I find them uncomfortable as they dig in under your finger. However, this is a completely different type of adjustable, from the old style pull to make a gap. The ring goes all the way round and then doubles over itself to offer the ability to make it larger. Making the beautiful Guardian Angel Expandable Ring as comfortable to wear as a normal sized ring.
This particular ring comes in a 14kt rose gold flash plate or rhodium flash plate, each of which has a beautiful angel wing charm hanging from it. The guardian angel range is of course linked to the idea of having your own angel watching over and supporting you.
Guardian Angel Earrings – £19
Another item from the angel range are these Guardian Angel Earrings, once again I went for the rose gold and they, of course, use the same charm as the earrings making for the perfect matching items. The idea behind wearing items for the guardian angel range is to remind yourself your angel is always with you.
If you like this range, you can also finish it off with a matching bangle and necklace, both of which include the angel wing charm, alongside a little cherub.
Karma Expandable Bangle – £25
The Karma Expandable Bangle, features the endless knot, to represent the spiritual principle of you reap what you sow. This bangle is available in a 14kt gold flash plate or silver (rhodium) flash plate and is of course adjustable.
To wear the bangle all you need to do is gently pull apart the bracelet, which will then widen around the crossed section and then you just gently push it back together to adjust it to the size of your wrist. I’ve found it an easy bracelet to put on and comfortable to wear, it makes for a great base for stacking your bracelets.
Protection Botswana Agli Expandable Bangle – £35
Next in the bracelet line up is the Protection Botswana Agli Expandable Bangle, this particular bracelet features the protective eye, which is believed to ward off bad feeling and evil, keeping the wearer free from harm. This protective bangle comes in a 14kt rose gold flash plating with semi-precious stones.
While this is listed as an expandable bangle, I have to admit I’m not sure how it expands. To wear you need to connect the hook to the loop end and be careful while you do as the charms do come off and I’ve dropped them on the floor a few times. However, once on it does seem to stay on well, so there isn’t too much worry about it accidentally coming off.
While this perhaps the most fiddly to get on, it is perhaps my favourites from the trio, as I love the addition of the semi-precious stones.
Originality Turquoise Resin Wrap Bangle – £25
Last but by no means least is the Originality Turquoise Resin Wrap Bangle, the idea behind this bangle is to be the flamingo in a flock of pigeons, to always show your unique and original side. This particular bangle comes in a 14kt gold flash plate and features a turquoise resin.
The style of bangle here is a wrap, so it is so easy to slip onto your wrist and it automatically returns to its wrapped state allowing it to sit comfortably on the wrist.
Overall I was really impressed with all the pieces I received from Chrysalis, they are obviously well made and I love that each piece has meaning behind it. I can definitely see myself adding to my Chrysalis collection in the months to come, especially with the bangles as they stack together so well, offering different looks each day.
If you want to know more about Chrysalis or fancy checking out their collection, do head over to their website.

What beautiful pieces! My favorite was the Protection Botswana Agli Expandable Bangles. Not just because they were so pretty, but I love the idea of the protective eye and warding off evil to keep us from harm. x
It is such a nice idea isn’t it, I love all these old symbols and the meanings they have.
These are all such lovely and unique items of jewelry. I love the turquoise bracelet that you saved for last.
That one is beautiful it is so easy to wear as well due to the wrap nature of it.
I love Protection Botswana Agli Expandable Bangle!!! I also love that I was drawn to it after reading about its purpose! I think I need one of those.
Most definitely, it sounds like you need to have one in your life 🙂
LOVE the guardian angel earrings and the turquoise bracelet…I am obsessed with unique jewelry, especially bracelets
I am the same I love something that is just a bit different and this ticks all the boxes.
The jewelry looks great. I like some of the displayed bracelets. I do know completely what your saying about the adjustable rings and have never seen one the way you stated these were; so that’s a definite plus.
It is really so much more comfortable I’d definitely pick up a ring that used this system again.
These are stunning pieces! I have never seen anything like them! I especially love the Protection Botswana Agli Expandable Bangle! So classic, but elegant!
It is beautiful I’ve not really stopped wearing it since it arrived I have to admit.
These pieces are very cute! They give me that Bohemian vibe. I can definitely see myself accessorizing my Bohemian inspired outfits with these.
They really do don’t they and they layer so well as well.
These are so pretty! I’m a fan of that turquoise bangle. It’ s a fair price too! I’ll have to check out the website.
They really are good value for what they offer, I wouldn’t think twice about buying more.
The turquoise bangle is so pretty! I really like it! THat’s a piece I could totally wear
I could totally imagine stacking up different coloured ones as well.
Lovely pieces of jewellery – I like the thought behind the range
They have really thought about each and every piece haven’t they.
Those guardian angel wings earrings are so beautiful! Love the fact that Chrysalis jewelry is meant to be worn all together – I love the idea of stacking bangles.
They are beautiful aren’t they and I am with you I think they stack so well and I’m not normally a stacker.
What lovely jewellery – I like the whole concept around these beautiful pieces.
They have really tried to think about it haven’t they – it is such a wonderful brand to be behind.
I Love this jewelry! The bangle and pearl beaded look are always so classy! I also really like the turq color!
It is a really gorgeous colour and goes with the gold so well and I’m not normally a normal gold coloured person at all!
Those angel wing earrings and the turquoise necklace are beautiful. I would love to have either of those. Turquoise is very pretty.
The earrings are gorgeous aren’t they – I’m normally a silver person but I adore the rose gold with these.
I had never heard of the Chrysalis brand before. Some of those pieces are really pretty and definitely something that I would wear.
I have to admit I hadn’t before they got in touch but I’m definitely a fan now, such lovely pieces on offer.
Wow they look so pretty! I love the wing earrings! I really would like to get some for myself
They are gorgeous aren’t they – I really love them in the rose gold as well and I am normally a silver person.
These pieces are all gorgeous. I am not a big jewelry wearer but I do own a lot. I really like the angel wing earrings.
I have to admit I don’t wear it everyday but I love to have pieces around for when the occasion arises and the more the merrier 😉
This is my kind of Jewely! It is so fun and interesting yet beautiful and can be worn casually or for a night out. I am not one for classic pieces from expensive jewelry stores where everone ends up buying the same thing anyway
They have really made a brand that works so well haven’t they – I am in love with so many different pieces.
That jewelry looks gorgeous. I love getting all sorts of new jewelry that is original and creative. I’ll have to check out and see what they have here.
It really is something different isn’t it and I love that most of it is just completely adjustable making it so easy to wear.
Beautiful jewelry! Really love those angel wing earrings. I’ll have to swing over to the website.
I hope you find some bits you love they really do make some beautiful pieces.
Those pieces all look lovely. I have only tried an expandable ring once, I didn’t much care for the “charm” hanging and moving around.
I can understand them not being for everyone, I didn’t think I would get on with it but this one isn’t too bad or least *touch wood* it hasn’t been so far.
Bracelets are my go to throw on accessory. Love the layering and the charms look to be from celtic and older which is something I really love and enjoy wearing.
They have some really gorgeous charms on them I am loving the endless knot for instance.
I love those earrings, they are really pretty x
They seem to be people’s favourite of all the items so far 🙂
Oh wow, they have some GORGEOUS pieces. Now I NEED to head to their website and buy myself something.
They really do offer some stunning items, I hope you find something you adore as well.
Stunning and UNIQUE
Would love to have in my jewellery collection
