Botswana agate and oxidised copper spiral wrapped bracelet
£38.00
Product Code: 13042f
Entirely hand made adjustable length bracelet in oxidised copper, featuring 6 large glossy beads of gorgeous Botswana agate, spiral wrapped in copper wire.
This bracelet has been entirely hand crafted from raw copper wire. Each gorgeously banded bead of Botswana agate is spiral wrapped with a heavy gauge of copper wire and connected to the next with a hand sawn jump ring. The bracelet closes with my own hand made heavy weight hook clasp into an adjustable chain closure, allowing the bracelet to be fastened at 3 different lengths. The end of the adjustment chain is adorned with a spiral wrapped matching smaller bead of agate.
All of the cut ends of the wire have been filed smooth and the finished bracelet has been extensively hand polished and then tumbled for shine and durability. It has been oxidised and tumbled to a deep gunmetal finish to the copper, but it can be polished back further if you'd prefer an antiqued finish.
The bracelet is adjustable and can be extended:
The fit of this bracelet is adjustable between 153mm (6") and 168mm (6.6"). This is not a linear length, but the length of the inner circumference, as it sits in wear. Each of the agate beads is 12mm (½") in diameter and the smaller bead on the clasp dangle is 8mm (0.3").
Due to the large size of the beads on this bracelet, it is a slightly smaller fit than most, as made, but I can add another bead link repeat if you feel you would like it a little larger - I have a spare link made ready and this would add about 24mm (<1") to the fit of the bracelet, taking the minimum and maximum adjustable fit range to between approximately 177mm (7") and 192mm (7.6") respectively. Alternatively, an additional ring(s) could be added to the clasp area to add a little extra ease and these would add about 6mm (¼") each to the fit.
