This bracelet with three labradorites pairs a minimalist, narrow form with a stone of restless, shifting beauty. The faceted cut breaks the surface into tiny facets that reveal a different flash with every movement of the hand - a blue, at times steely, glint against a dark, almost black background. It was once associated with calm thinking, inspiration and self-confidence - an association, not a promise of effect, but one that pleasantly accompanies a bracelet worn every day. A delicate 18 cm chain, closed with an adjustable 4 cm extension, lets you fit the bracelet to both a narrow and a fuller wrist.

Each of the three labradorites is assessed before being set - what matters is the depth of the dark background and the vividness of the blue flash, and only a stone that meets this standard makes it into the bracelet. Good labradorites rise in price along with silver, so this piece at this price is a sensible choice today. The setting is refined European silver 925 - an alloy free of nickel and other harmful additives, so the bracelet does not irritate the skin even with long contact against the wrist. A rhodium layer adds hardness to the metal and protects it against scratching and tarnishing, so the shine lasts long despite daily wear. The piece bears the French maker's mark, which guarantees the metal's origin.

This bracelet feels right with romantic, delicate outfits - a lace blouse with a puffed sleeve, a dress with a small floral print or a pastel sweater with a narrow cuff. A short sleeve or a rolled-up cuff reveals the wrist and lets the stones catch the eye without competing with the rest of the outfit. In the cooler months it works well over a wool sweater in broken white or powder pink, and in summer, over a linen dress in a light shade. Its light weight of 5.7 g means the bracelet sits lightly and does not get in the way of everyday hand movements.
