Turquoise Bracelet — Handcrafted Copper Talisman Jewelry
Handcrafted in copper with five raw Sonoran turquoise nuggets, this talisman bracelet grounds the voice, supports bold truth, and links earth material to mindful daily ritual.
This isn’t just jewelry. It’s a talisman for the woman who moves through the world with purpose — grounded, radiant, and alive in her strength.
Materials & process
- Stone: Five genuine Sonoran turquoise nuggets, left raw to preserve each nugget’s unique surface and color.
- Metal: Copper cuff, slowly electroformed to grow the metal around each stone so the crystal’s natural shape remains central.
- Finish: Hand-hammered structuring, bronze wire accents, careful hand-finishing and an optional protective seal to preserve the antique copper hue.
Each piece is made with a slow, intentional electroforming technique — copper is grown and built up around the turquoise rather than forced into a mold. The result is handcrafted copper jewelry that celebrates the mineral and the metal as a single, steady talisman. Hand-finished details and an optional protective seal ensure longevity and everyday wearability.
Crystal properties
Turquoise is a classic healing crystal long valued for its calming, clarifying energies and its association with honest communication and protection. As a grounding crystal and spiritual meaning token, turquoise supports emotional balance, steadies the throat center, and encourages courage to speak personal truth. Often regarded as a supportive stone for Sagittarius and Pisces energies, it also appears in birthstone and zodiac stone traditions as a protector on life’s journeys.
Purpose & meaning
This handmade crystal talisman is designed to be worn as a companion in ritual and everyday life — to steady your presence, anchor intention, and remind you to speak with clarity and confidence. Wear it as a singular statement or layered with other pieces to create a personal ritual of grounding and empowerment. Copper conducts and amplifies the stone’s energy, linking earth material to mindful practice and serving as a durable reminder of inner steadiness rather than perfection.
Each talisman is one-of-a-kind, born of earth and alchemy — made to steady your energy and remind you to return to your center.
The Metal
The Metal
Each bracelet is electroformed in pure copper, a process that uses electricity to slowly grow metal over organic forms, stone, or wax-carved bases.
This ancient-meets-modern technique creates natural textures and one-of-a-kind variations — no two pieces will ever be the same.
All bracelets are nickel-free, can be sealed for daily wear, and finished by hand in our Santa Fe studio.
For centuries, copper has been worn as a grounding element — believed to balance energy, support circulation, and keep the wearer anchored in presence. It reminds us of our connection to the earth and our ability to return to stillness.
The Stones
The Stones
Every stone is hand-chosen for its raw beauty — untouched, uncut, and full of natural detail.
Electroforming allows the metal to flow organically around the crystal, preserving its unique shape while creating a secure, enduring setting.
Minor differences in tone, texture, or patina are intentional — they reflect the individuality of both the material and the maker.
A Micro-Ritual For You
A Micro-Ritual For You
Before putting your bracelet on, pause and take a steady breath. Let your hand rest over your pulse and recall what you want to hold close today — peace, focus, strength, or clarity. Wear it as a quiet reminder of that purpose throughout your day.

FOR THE WILD KEEPER
Craft, Care, & Fit
Sizing Guide & Fit
Our electroformed copper cuffs are not adjustable and should not be bent or forced to fit, as this can damage the piece. Choosing the right size from the start ensures a comfortable and lasting fit.
To find your size:
- Measure your wrist with a flexible tape or string.
- Add +0.5" for a closer, snug fit.
- Add +0.75" for a looser, more relaxed fit.
Size guide:
- Extra Small – fits ~5.75" wrist
- Small – fits ~6.5" wrist
- Medium – fits ~7.25" wrist
- Large – fits ~8" wrist
✨ When in doubt, size up for comfort. Exchanges are accepted. Each cuff is handmade and one-of-a-kind, crafted to be treasured for years.
How To Correctly Put On Your Bracelet
Gently form the bracelet to your wrist using slow, even pressure. Avoid bending it back and forth repeatedly, as electroformed copper is malleable and can weaken over time. A close but comfortable fit helps the metal rest naturally against the skin.
Electroformed copper cuffs are not meant to bend — they should never be pulled open or squeezed closed. Doing so can cause the
copper to crack, especially at the middle or ends of the cuff.
How to Properly Put On Your Cuff Bracelet
- Find the soft spot on your wrist — the narrow part just above the wrist bone.
- Slide the open side of the cuff sideways onto your wrist — not from the top, but from the side.
- Gently rotate or roll the bracelet into place until it rests comfortably.
- Avoid bending or stretching the cuff to make it tighter or looser.
Care & Patina
Copper will naturally develop a patina over time, a mark of age, energy, and individuality. To restore brightness, polish gently with a soft cloth or a simple lemon-and-salt paste. To preserve its aged character, simply wipe clean and let the color deepen with wear.
With a little mindful care, your jewelry will stay beautiful for years to come:
- Remove before showering, swimming, or sleeping.
- Store in a dry pouch or jewelry box to slow natural patina.
- Wipe metals gently with a soft jewelry cloth after each wear.
- Avoid contact with perfumes, lotions, and hair products.
- Crystals are natural and can be delicate—handle with care to avoid chips or cracks.
- Copper and brass will naturally darken over time. If you prefer a brighter finish, polish lightly with a jewelry cloth.
- For extra protection, select our lacquer option at checkout to reduce tarnish and minimize skin reactions.
Each piece is handcrafted with raw crystals and natural metals—organic changes over time add to its one-of-a-kind beauty.
Do I Need Copper Protection?
Embrace the Patina
Some collectors love the rich, aged look that copper develops over time. This natural patina tells a story—of adventures taken, energies absorbed, and the passage
of time. If you resonate with that earthy, vintage look, feel free to let your copper evolve organically.
Why add lacquer?
- Slows the natural darkening (patina) of copper
- Minimizes the chance of skin reactions
- Keeps copper looking brighter for longer
- Protects while preserving the earthy character of your jewelry
