Natural Stone Layered Bracelet | 101300070641296

How to Measure

1. Wrap a flexible tape (or a strip of paper/string) around your wrist where the bracelet will sit—just below the wrist bone.
2. Mark the meeting point, then measure the length against a ruler. This is your wrist circumference.
3. Choose your preferred fit and add:
   • Snug fit: wrist + 0.25 in (0.6 cm)
   • Comfort fit: wrist + 0.5 in (1.3 cm)
   • Loose/stacked fit: wrist + 0.75–1 in (2–2.5 cm)
4. Account for bead size (round beads take interior space):
   • 6 mm beads: add +0.25 in (0.6 cm)
   • 8 mm beads: add +0.5 in (1.3 cm)
   • 10 mm beads: add +0.6–0.75 in (1.5–2 cm)
5. Layered/stacking note: multiple strands wear slightly tighter. Add an extra +0.25–0.5 in (0.6–1.3 cm) for a similar drape across layers.
6. If your bracelet has an extender chain: most extenders add 1–2 in (2.5–5 cm) of adjustability. Measure using the shortest and longest settings to find your fit range.

Quick check: Roll the bracelet on/off rather than stretching it wide. If it slides over comfortably and sits with a slight drape, the size is right.

Materials & What to Expect

This Natural Stone Layered Bracelet is designed with genuine stone components and mixed findings. Natural materials may show subtle variations in color, pattern, and veining—these are features of real stone, not flaws.

Natural stone (typical options and properties)

• Quartz family (clear quartz, amethyst, rose quartz, citrine): hardness ~7 on the Mohs scale; resilient and good for everyday wear.
• Agate & jasper: hardness ~6.5–7; tough stones with banding or earthy patterns.
• Onyx & obsidian: hardness ~6–7; sleek dark tones; avoid hard knocks to prevent chips.
• Howlite & turquoise (and dyed variants): softer/porous (~3–4); keep dry and away from chemicals to preserve color.
• Lava stone: porous and lightweight; can absorb a drop of essential oil if desired—avoid soaking and detergents.

Metals & findings (may vary by style)

• Stainless steel (304/316L): highly durable, tarnish-resistant, and low maintenance.
• Sterling silver (.925): bright finish that may naturally tarnish; responds well to gentle polishing.
• Gold/rose gold plating or PVD over brass/steel: luminous finish; avoid abrasion, chemicals, and prolonged moisture to extend life.
• Brass or zinc alloy accents: warm tone that may develop a patina over time; keep dry to maintain luster.

Stringing materials commonly used

• Elastic cord (often latex-free): easy on/off; roll over the hand to avoid over-stretching.
• Nylon-coated stainless steel wire with clasp: higher strength and a traditional bracelet feel.
• Waxed/poly cord: lightweight and comfortable; avoid full submersion for longevity.

Note: Exact stones, metals, and closures can vary by variant. Refer to the product options/details above for the specific materials in your bracelet.

Model & Fit Reference

On-model images are styled to show a comfortable, everyday drape with a slight movement at the wrist. Layered looks typically feature 2–4 strands and bead sizes around 6–8 mm for balanced stacking.

• Prefer a sleek fit like many on-model shots? Choose “snug” or “comfort” fit from the guide above.
• Want a relaxed, boho stack? Size toward the “loose/stacked” fit and mix bead sizes/textures for dimension.
• Petite wrists (approx. 13–15 cm / 5–6 in) often like 6 mm beads for a refined stack; fuller wrists (17–19 cm / 6.75–7.5 in) may prefer 8–10 mm beads for proportion.

Care Guide (to keep it lovely longer)

• Last on, first off: put the bracelet on after lotions, perfumes, and hair products have fully dried.
• Keep dry: remove before showering, swimming, workouts, or handwashing to protect stones, elastic, and plating.
• Avoid chemicals: skip contact with perfumes, cleaners, sunscreen, and chlorinated/salt water.
• Clean gently: wipe stones and metal with a soft dry cloth. For non-porous stones (quartz/agate/jasper) you can briefly wipe with a damp cloth and dry immediately. Do not soak.
• Avoid ultrasonic cleaners and silver dips on stone or plated pieces.
• Storage: keep in a soft pouch or separate compartment to prevent scratches and tangles; add anti-tarnish tabs for silver.
• Elastic styles: roll on/off rather than pulling wide; allow elastic to “rest” between wears to prolong life.
• Lava stone: if using essential oils, apply a tiny drop to the bead only; let it absorb fully before wearing and keep oils away from plated metal.

Style Tips

• Stack smart: combine 3, 5, or 7 strands for a balanced layered look—mix one focal piece with slimmer companions.
• Mix textures: pair smooth stones with faceted or matte beads; add a metal chain or bangle for shine.
• Color play:
  • Neutrals (agate/jasper/onyx) pair easily with watches and everyday outfits.
  • Pastels (rose quartz/howlite) soften denim and knits.
  • Bold hues (amethyst/turquoise) pop against monochrome looks.
• Metal match: echo your ring/earring metal (gold, silver, or mixed) to tie the look together.
• Occasions:
  • Office: opt for smaller beads (6 mm) and 1–2 strands.
  • Weekend: go relaxed with 3–4 strands and varied textures.
  • Evening: add metallic accents or faceted stones for subtle sparkle.
• Unisex styling: darker stones (onyx, lava, jasper) and minimal metal accents pair well with casual or tailored looks.
