This vintage bracelet brings a warm, amber-brown tone of tiger's eye to the wrist. The stone is a variety of quartz with a silky sheen that produces a cat's-eye effect as the hand moves - a narrow, bright band glides across the surface of the cabochon with every gesture. Silver links with a distinctly retro look frame the stones in a form that doesn't seek attention, letting the colour of the tiger's eye lead the eye. The bracelet measures 18 cm, and an adjustable 4 cm extension lets it be fitted to wrists of different circumferences.

Before it goes into the setting, every cabochon is examined for the pattern of its bands and the depth of its colour - only specimens with a clear, concentrated sheen make it into production. Silver and good stones get more expensive every year, so a bracelet of this price and quality is a sensible choice today. The metal is refined European silver 925, additionally coated with a layer of rhodium that protects the surface from tarnishing and scratches, so the shine lasts a long time. The alloy contains no nickel, the metal responsible for allergic reactions, so the piece doesn't irritate the skin. The piece bears the French maker's mark - a mark of the silver's origin. In old-world craft, tiger's eye was associated with stability and renewal, and today it's often worn as a symbol of those same values.

This bracelet sits well with a linen shirt with a rolled-up sleeve or under a loose cotton sweater, where the cuff reveals the wrist. The vintage look of the links suits muted, natural fabrics - beige, khaki, ecru - and the colour of the stone brings such an outfit to life without the need for extra jewelry. The big size works well on a wider wrist, giving the whole look a distinctly handcrafted, retro character.
