Gold Bag Charms: Chains, Stars and Metal Details

Gold Bag Charms: Chains, Stars and Metal Details

Gold bag charms from Coach, Kate Spade, BaubleBar and Chloé, from $28 to $530. Swag chains, stars, initials and hardware-style charms for gold-hardware bags.

Gold bag charms, and how to match hardware

A gold charm works because it matches the hardware already on the bag. Coach's Mini Star Bag Charm is $45, BaubleBar's Bubble Initial Bag Charm is $32, and Coach's Gold Swagger Chain With Charms is $95. Kate Spade's Charmed Star Swag Chain is $58. If your bag has gold buckles or zips, these four will look as if they came with it.

Chains, coins and a key heart

Swag chains hang between two clasps and turn a bag strap into a feature. Kate Spade's Charmed Metal Bow Swag Chain is $78, and Coach's Silver Swagger Chain With Charms is $95, the silver version if your hardware is silver. Chloé's Alphabet Horse Coin Bag Charm is $95 and its Key & Heart Lock Bag Charm is $270, which pairs a heart padlock with keys.

Metal with a bit of color

Chloé's Symbols Logo Key Ring & Bag Charm is $530 and is the most expensive in the row. For a little color, BaubleBar's Bead All About It is $36, the Briny Baby Olive is $28 and Eyes For The Good Life is $28. The gold in each one is the clasp and the details, which is enough to tie it to a gold bag.

What I would buy

I would start with Coach's $45 star or BaubleBar's $32 initial. The Chloé charms are for bags you plan to keep.
