Individually handcrafted using reclaimed copper this unisex cuff is provided with a naturally rustic patina to highlight the design and emphasize the organic characteristic of copper. The front of the cuff is enhanced with a version of a Celtic Shield Knot. The Celtic Shield is a looping knot with four corners, typically symbolic of unity, inner strength, and protection (both physically and spiritually). Durable cuff is handcrafted in Colorado and suitable for daily wear.

Therapeutic Aspect : For centuries, copper has been believed to have a therapeutic benefit. In modern times, it is thought that copper absorbed through the skin helps relieve symptoms of arthritis, rheumatism, tendonitis and muscle pain. While the exterior of the bracelet is polished, the interior is unpolished, allowing bare copper to touch the skin. Worn against the skin, all copper can potentially leave a slight green tint - this is not an allergic reaction, rather a desired natural reaction to pure copper as the micro-nutrients are absorbed. Not all skin types will experience this.

Recycled Materials : The cuff is crafted with reclaimed pure copper using sustainable methods. Pure copper may contain trace elements of zinc or tin, which are also considered beneficial nutrients. However, it is completely nickel-free.

Sizes: Medium Size (7.25) is suitable for approximately 7.0" to 7.75" and Large Size (8.25) is suitable for 7.75" to 8.5".

Fitting Tip : To prevent metal fatigue, don't bend and re-adjust the bracelet every time is is put on. To take the cuff on and off, relax the wrist. At 1/4 to 1/3 of the way between the wrist and elbow, slide the cuff on (as there is less bone mass here). The cuff can then be slid down to fit between the wrist and hand. Initially, adjust the bracelet once so that there is an opening of 1" to 1.5", allowing the cuff to be put on and removed at the same location each time.
