These bracelets are relaxed, stylish and very gorgeous. They are created from a selection of beautiful handmade elements and highlighted with a couple of sterling silver nuggets. This is all threaded onto a coated steel bangle that is soft and flexible but won't lose it's shape. They look great layered together or with other jewellery and make perfect gifts. These bangles do open with a simple screw fastner but as bangles they can also just slip over your hand. To make these beautiful beads, used glass is gathered from all over West Africa and is roughly ground down and individually reformed using clay molds fired in an earth kiln. Every bead is completely unique and all colours are produced purely from the original glass with no added chemicals. The recycled brass is also from West Africa and comes from old plumbing fittings, collected and transformed using the ancient Asante Lost Wax Process. Each charm is first hand molded in bees wax giving evey piece it's own particular identity. Just pick the charm combination that is best for you: The Charcoal Bracelet is shown here with a large Brass Star. Also available with Large Brass Heart, Trio of Small Flowers or Trio of Small Stars. The bracelet is also available in Pale Olive, Ice White and Multi (image 3). Charms:
