Diamonds may be a girl’s best friend, but we do love all things beautiful! Trollbeads bracelets are just this with each bead telling a story of its own, taking inspiration from mythology and classic fairy tales. Trollbeads bracelets are created by hand, with a core of sterling silver, and can be arranged in any combination you can think of, giving you the chance to express your own individual style. We have our eye on this leather bracelet, which comes with a choice of one of three silver beads: the Faith, Hope and Charity; the Hugging Heart; or the Lucky Knot. Here’s what their stories represent:

Faith, Hope and Charity – ‘And now abideth faith, hope and charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity’. A beautiful cross, heart and anchor combine to remind us what we strive for every day.

The Hugging Heart – ‘Give your heart to someone who will hold it close’.

Lucky Knot –  for good luck and happiness, and we can all do with a little bit more of both!

And the choices do not end there. The bracelets come in a range of colours too. Choose between the classic black, earthy dark brown, green, red, a cool deep blue or the soft beige.

Like what you hear? We’re giving away one Trollbeads bracelet to the value of R1 200 to one lucky ELLE online reader. Tell us which beads you love and why by commenting below, and you stand the chance to make one of these bracelets your own!

Yvette Scholtz on 9/6/2012: Definitely the Lucky Knot. As someone who usually doesn't have much luck with competitions (I enter everything, but never win), this bead might just give me that little bit of extra luck I need...
Nooreen on 9/6/2012: The lucky Knot, at this moment I really could do with some lucky, stress of working and writing exams altogether. So wish me good luck i need it ;-)
Monica Chrich on 9/6/2012: I like the Hugging Heart bead because if you trust someone enough to give them your heart that is a special feeling in life.
Patty Jansen on 9/6/2012: My favorit bead is not one bead... but a whole kit : the new Indigo-kit from the fall release 2012. I collected the silver beads from the Trollbeads World Tour, but had no idea how to get them all together in one combination. When I saw the Indigo-kit the first idea in my head was : continents, oceans and sky... During our life on earth we like to see other parts of the world, we travel over all worldseas and follow a path who leads us to where we like to go... Generations before us did the same thing and they will do in the future. The sky is the limit...!!! So my favorit beads : the indigo-kit !!! And for all the souvenir beads from places where I've been... a dark blue leather bracelet will give me the space to continue travelling... ;)
Birte Polonski on 9/6/2012: I love the daisy bead - it reminds me of summer and wonderful childhood memories <3

Patty JANSEN on 9/6/2012: I like the blue lether with lucky knot... I have had 3 car-accidents in the last few years, which were not my fault. I didn't escape without getting injured and I know that my body will not heal for 100% anymore... but I can't tell you how "lucky" I'm and survived... life changed, but all I've been thrue made me see life in a different way. A butterfly in the sky makes me happy, the beautiful colors of autumn leaves... I realize how much luck I had and that I'm on this planet for a special reason... even if I have to find out yet what this reason is...
BEV on 9/6/2012: The soft beige with the Hugging Heart would be lovely as it would blend in with all my outfits.

Dee on 9/7/2012: Blue, blue, my heart's so true... And the Hugging Heart, because it's all that it stands for! I also like the Zodiac Ox, as that's my year. I love The Eye and Wave of Dreams, they're both blue, my favourite colour. The Zebra Jasper, because it's different. And the Guardian Angel, because we all need one at some stage...
Grace A on 9/7/2012: Black : because anything will look good on it. I love the Black Diamond, because it looks classy; the Scarlet Bud & Scarlet Armadillo, because they brighten everything up; and Faith Hope & Charity from the above, because that's what we all need a good dose of in life.

Faieza on 9/7/2012: I love the Hugging Heart, which serves as a reminder that above all else, we should love first - not just people close to us but love for everyone.
Jeanice on 9/7/2012: I must say I love ALL the beads but what stands out to me the most is the Faith, Hope and Charity beads. FAITH : Every one of us goes through trials and tribulations and at that time we feel so lost and confused that we tend to give up on what really counts in life. And the FAITH bead will remind us daily that we have Our Father who gave us his only begotten son to die for us on the CROSS in Calvary to forgive our sins so we must always remember to have faith which in the end gives us HOPE. HOPE : Where there's faith there's hope. Not everything in life turns out the way we want it to but that doesn't mean we should lose hope in what we strive for in life. CHARITY : I love the fact that the anchor bead symbolizes charity because its so true. Doing CHARITY and giving to those who have less than what we have humbles us, it anchors us to our roots to remember where we came from, what we believe in and who we are. So that we can know where we going. FAITH that there will be a better tomorrow, HOPE to believe in a better tomorrow and CHARITY to anchor us to our believes so that we can achieve a better tomorrow. That's why I love the FAITH, HOPE and CHARITY beads. They will be a daily upliftment for me. And did I mention that they're simply gorgeous as well - well that they are!

Sabine Cosmo on 9/8/2012: I love the red leather with the lucky knot. To wear red clothes gives me energy, the red color symbolises love and Is associated with happines in China. And lucky knot (a chinese knot) because we all need luck...

Sabine Cosmo on 9/8/2012: I love the red leather with the lucky knot. To wear red clothes gives me energy, the red color symbolizes love but is also associated with happiness in China. And the lucky knot (a chinese knot) because we all need luck...
Albina Velichkiene on 9/9/2012: I like a bead "Cherub" because it to me associates with my mother, who carried me under her heart, which warms me when is cold and sad, it always nearby even if it it is far! The lovely parable approaches to it: The day before his birthday child asked God - How am I going to live there, because I'm so small and helpless? " . What should I do? God said: - I'll give you an angel who will always be with you. He will explain everything. The child thought, then said again: "Here in Heaven, I just sing and laugh, that's enough for me to happiness." God said, "Your angel will sing for you and smiling, you will feel his love and be happy." - But, as I understand, because I do not know their language? - Angel will teach you their language. He will save you from evil. - And what is the name of my angel? - It does not matter, it has many names. About you call her "Mom". A green leather bracelet - it is warm and cozy, which together with the "Cherub" - mom, my angel is always with me.
Albina Velichkiene on 9/9/2012: God is love, I experienced His love in your life. As in the movie "Back to nature": the end of the film said, "Happiness - the need to share." That way, when you're happy, when your heart is burning, you want to share with others. That is what I'm doing. I try to share the joy, spread hope, faith. But first - to himself. Thus, the importance of God's love for us and the love of God in our midst. We can call it love tour, which to me reflects the bead Faith, Hope and Charity .....
Cindy Palmer on 9/9/2012: I love the hugging heart - I normally wear my heart on my sleeve!
Chanel on 9/9/2012: Its gotta be the Lucky Knot. I'd love to win one to give to best friend of 9 years! She absolutely loves Trollbeads but they're just sooo out of my budget. She could so do with a bit of luck right now :) Love love love them!!!!
