[Made in Japan] Blue Coral Bracelet, Natural Stone, Delicate 3mm, 14kgf, March Birthstone, Metal Allergy-Friendly

A soft, purplish blue. A delicate bracelet made from blue coral. This is a 3mm blue coral bracelet. A single 14kgf (14K gold-filled) bead is centered in the design. The hardware is gold-colored surgical stainless steel. The clasp features a lobster claw and an approximate 5cm extender chain. Each piece is finished by hand in a workshop in Tokyo. Soft white mottled patterns intermingle with the calm blue. The surface is finely faceted, allowing even the small 3mm beads to shimmer with light. Each stone was individually selected by hand from a natural stone specialist shop. Unlike standard prayer-bead style crystal bracelets, this features a slender 3mm line. It is designed for everyday wear, much like fine jewelry. Its muted blue (dusty blue) tone pairs beautifully with gray, navy, and beige clothing. It is also a frequently chosen gift for mothers. ◆ Stone Meanings ・Grace ・Prosperity ・Good Luck ・Peace Believed to hold the power of the sea.
