Santa Maria SOLD
Handmade Bangle Bracelet

Santa Maria is an subtle and elegant bangle bracelet that I handcrafted from beads of Lotus Jasper, Ocean Jasper, and Bali Sterling Silver, with and anti-tarnish Argentium .925 Sterling Silver wire and a Bali sterling silver clasp. Because all of the sterling in this bracelet that is not already antiqued is anti-tarnish sterling silver, this bracelet will not tarnish like traditional sterling silver. Very easy to care for!

This bracelet fits a 6.5" wrist snugly and can be lengthened at no charge on request. If you want it extended, just let me know in the comments section of the shopping cart and give me the measurement of your wrist.

In alignment with the mystical lore associated with the stones, I crafted this piece with the prayer and intent that the wearer be blessed with wholeness and comfort.
