An earthy toned bracelet featuring 4 types of gemstone beads: black spider web jasper, brown jasper, black agate and electroplated bronze hematite chevrons. Beads are strung on nylon coated stainless steel wire and finished off with a toggle clasp. Jasper, agate and hematite are natural mineral gemstones and will not tarnish. Stainless steel wire is not only used for durability and strength. It is also used because it too will not tarnish and it will not break like elastic. Please also note that since minerals are natural no two beads will be alike, giving truly unique pieces.
BRACELET SIZING: This bracelet will be resized to fit you. Please see the picture on how to measure your wrist. Alternatively, you can send me the length of another well-fitting bracelet you own. Please place this measurement in the personalization box when ordering.
WHY NOT A STRETCH BRACELET? Stretch bracelets are made possible by elastic. Elastic is considerably cheaper and less durable than stainless steel. It will rot and when combined with gemstones will easily break. The edges of the holes in the gemstones will continuously cut into the elastic, weakening an already weak material even further and causing it to snap. I therefore refuse to use elastic in my designs.
WHY TOGGLE CLAPS? Toggle clasps are easier to close and open than lobster clasps, especially if you have larger fingers.
WANT A LOBSTER CLASP INSTEAD? Lobster clasps and extender chains are possible, please message me if this is your preference.

A WORD ON JEWELRY CARE
All materials used are durable and although gemstones do not usually tarnish, metal does.
Please take care of your jewelry and remove it before activities such as vigorous exercise or swimming, especially in chlorinated pools.
Gently clean your pieces after wearing to remove perspiration, dirt, pollution and any hair and skin care products.
