A delicate bracelet featuring turquoise blue White Hearts, Herkimer diamonds, lapis, Karen silver, and turquoise.

This delicate bracelet is crafted by connecting turquoise blue White Hearts, Herkimer diamonds, lapis, and Karen silver. The turquoise blue beads are called White Hearts because the core of the bead is white. Authentic antique (19th-20th century) White Hearts are becoming exceedingly rare. Especially this shade of turquoise blue is truly, truly precious! We've also incorporated even rarer beads with subtle striped patterns! (White Heart bead size: length 0.2cm, diameter 0.2cm) Paired with these are clear, double-terminated Herkimer diamonds. Herkimer diamonds are quartz crystals mined from the Herkimer region of New York State. This piece features a combination of small and larger crystals. They are interspersed with 18k gold-plated, flower-shaped silver beads. The tiny, abacus-shaped lapis beads are sourced from Afghanistan. Each bead is hand-carved, resulting in slight variations in shape and size, which adds to their unique charm! With wear, the natural oils from your skin will help maintain their deep color. However, they may appear slightly lighter if they become dry. To preserve their color, we recommend lightly applying a tiny amount of baby oil to your hands before wearing, or if they seem dry. (Lapis bead size: diameter 2.5-3mm) The mint green beads are square-cut turquoise with a rough finish. Their bright hue evokes the feeling of a tropical sea. (Bead size: diameter 0.35cm) Small, irregular-shaped Karen silver beads have been used throughout. The clasp is also made of Karen silver. Some of these beads feature 18k gold plating. ◇ Karen Silver ◇ This silver is crafted by the hill tribes living in the mountains of Thailand and Burma. Each piece is handmade and is said to have a very high purity. This bracelet, adorned with vibrant Karen silver and the rustic charm of antique beads and lapis, is a perfect companion for sunny summer days.
