Three lapis lazuli cabochons sit along a slim, rhodium silver bracelet in a calm, minimalist line. The stone's deep, dark blue shifts here and there into a cool grey, and as the wrist moves, small golden flecks of pyrite catch the light and bring the whole piece to life. The simple, narrow band keeps the focus on the stone - the form stays clean and modern, true to the spirit of minimalism. Lapis lazuli has long been linked with inner harmony and intuition, and early craftsmen also valued it as a symbol of idealism.

Each of the three stones was chosen for its rich colour and clean structure, free of cracks or discolouration that would dull its character. Silver and good stones are getting more expensive every year, and pieces with this depth of colour are becoming harder to find, so this set makes sense at this price now. The bracelet is made from refined silver of European quality, sterling silver 925, and a layer of rhodium protects its surface from tarnishing and losing its shine for years to come. The metal is pure, free of nickel and other harmful additives, so contact with skin stays safe. On the inside of the bracelet you can see the maker's mark struck on the silver, registered with the assay office in France, which attests to the origin of the metal. The bracelet measures 18 cm and has an adjustable 4 cm extension, so you can easily fit it to your wrist.

In the city it pairs well with simple jeans and a white shirt, with the blue of the stone peeking out from under a rolled-up cuff. A leather jacket adds a bit of edge and character, giving the whole look a distinct urban feel. The rhodium silver doesn't draw as much attention as the stone itself, so it's the lapis lazuli that leads the eye with every movement of the hand.
