{"product_id":"brazilian-agate-slice-bangle-hammered-copper","title":"Brazilian Agate Slice Bangle | Hammered Copper | Made to Order","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis Brazilian agate slice bangle brings a broad window of banded stone to a fully enclosed, hand-hammered copper band. At approximately 1.5 inches long by 1 inch wide, the slice makes a statement without needing anything beside it. Choose it to mark a fresh beginning, a return to yourself, or an intention you want to keep within sight. For the person who prefers her jewelry a little wild, deeply personal, and impossible to repeat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eAgate is associated with balance, grounding, and emotional steadiness, and is traditionally connected with the root chakra. Wear it as a reminder of your intention to feel settled in your own skin.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Brazilian Agate\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAgate is a banded variety of chalcedony, a microcrystalline quartz formed as silica-rich water deposits successive layers inside rock cavities. Brazil is a well-known source of these distinctive stones. Cutting agate into slices reveals the layered patterns within, with each stone carrying its own arrangement of bands and translucence. No mystical claims. Just a beautiful stone with a meaning that fits real life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBrazilian Agate Slice Bangle: Materials \u0026amp; Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStone: Brazilian agate slice, approximately 1.5 inches long by 1 inch wide.

Measure your hand, not your wrist. Tuck your thumb into your palm as if you were slipping the bangle on, wrap a soft tape measure or a strip of paper around the widest part of your hand, and compare that measurement to the inner circumference below. If you fall between two sizes, choose the larger one. Slim wrists often need a larger bangle than expected, and that is completely normal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmall: 2.25 in \/ 57 mm inner diameter, about 7 in \/ 179 mm inner circumference\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMedium: 2.5 in \/ 63 mm inner diameter, about 7.75 in \/ 198 mm inner circumference\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLarge: 2.75 in \/ 70 mm inner diameter, about 8.5 in \/ 220 mm inner circumference\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtra large: 3 in \/ 76 mm inner diameter, about 9.4 in \/ 239 mm inner circumference\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCustom size: choose this option and add your hand measurement in the order notes at checkout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bangle is meant to sit loose and move a little as you do. It does not open, adjust, or clasp.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow This Brazilian Agate Bangle Is Made\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach slice is selected for its individual pattern before the copper band is formed into a continuous circle and hammered by hand. Copper is slowly built around the stone through electroforming, creating an organic setting with a texture distinct from the hammered band. Nothing is cast or mass produced, and each finished bangle carries the marks of its own making.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA Note on Stone and Color Variation\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach Brazilian agate slice is unique. Colors may vary slightly from the images, and every stone has its own banding, outline, and translucence. The approximately 1.5 by 1 inch dimensions are a guide, not an exact template. Your bracelet will carry the same design and character, with an individual stone rather than an identical match.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCare\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAvoid hard impacts, which can chip or fracture the stone. Remove before washing, swimming, or applying lotions and perfumes. Copper develops a natural patina over time. Polish the metal gently with a soft cloth and store your bangle dry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eGift Packaging\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYour bracelet arrives gift-ready in natural materials with a handwritten note card.
