HANDMADE LEATHER BRACELET FROM LAPLAND, SWEDEN 6.5" (women’s XS) long, 3/4" wide For SIZE, measure your wrist and add half an inch for comfort. If it does not fit, I will be happy to exchange the size. I have more bracelets in many different colors and sizes in stock so don’t hesitate to email me at info@swedart.com with your questions, or check out www.swedart.com . If I don’t have your size or color in stock, I will be happy to order it for you. The bracelets are soft and comfortable to wear and so easy to mix with other jewelry that you may want several designs and colors. Europeans like to wear several stacked on the same arm. They require no maintenance and they get softer and shinier the more you wear them. Swedish Lapland jewelry has been popular with men, women, and children in northern Europe for a long time but is difficult to find in America. New trendy designs and colors in reindeer and calfskin hides are constantly delighting fashion minded customers. Shipping and handling is $3 for up to two pieces of jewelry with regular USPS mail. Please contact me for international shipping. The jewelry comes with a full warranty and can be returned within 14 days for a full refund minus shipping as long as it has not been worn. BACKGROUND AND MATERIAL INFORMATION ABOUT SWEDART JEWELRY: Your friends will probably be impressed when you tell them that an artisan from a 10,000 year old culture in northern Europe actually made your stunning necklace. Sweden, Norway, and Finland have an indigenous population called the Sami People. The Sami lived on the land before the rest of the Scandinavians arrived. There are still 3,000 Sami (formerly called Lapps or Laplanders) who live near or above the Arctic Circle in Swedish Lapland who own herds with sometimes thousands of domesticated reindeer (caribou) and have reindeer husbandry as their livelihood. Sami artisans have made beautiful crafts of leather with details of antlers and embroidered with coiled pewter and copper wire for hundreds of years. I'm very proud to be able to bring unique craft items originated in the Sami culture to you. During years of visits to Lapland, I have formed personal relationships with every artisan I represent. The Lapland jewelry has been handmade of vegetable tanned top grade garment quality reindeer leather and high quality spun pewter wire (nickel free alloy with 4% silver) for SwedArt of Boston, MA, by the finest artisans available. Some jewelry is made of European calfskin because a certain fashion color was not available in reindeer hide. The wire is spun around strong synthetic sinew thread on a machine operated by one person. The braid is sewn onto the leather from several directions for durability. The button is made of shed reindeer antler and it has been reinforced with a glued-on piece of leather on the back (invisible because it is inside the band), the leather loop has been reinforced with synthetic sinew, and the leather is hand sewn with strong synthetic sinew thread. The ends of the thread have been burned instead of finished with tied knots for extra comfort and durability.
