Growing up, nothing cemented a new bond quite like a set of handmade friendship bracelets. 2024 has been a big year for these humble little accessories thanks to Taylor Swift, with adoring fans all over the world beading and braiding friendship bracelets to exchange with each other at her Eras tour shows. Even the royal family has gotten on board with the friendship bracelet trend, with Princess Charlotte, Prince George and even King Charles himself spotted wearing handwoven bangles on their wrists.

If you want to celebrate your bond with your bestie, don’t reach for the beads just yet. The friendship bracelets of childhood are all grown up, with sophisticated silver and gold replacing rainbow-coloured thread. Abbott Lyon has a range of elegant friendship bracelets designed to help you share a little love with your favourite person.

Different friendship bracelet colours and their meanings

Silver friendship bracelets

This warm rosy tone is all about love, so you can tell your best friend just how much they mean to you.
