This rhodium-plated 925 silver bracelet with labradorite catches the eye at first glance. The cabochons line up along the wrist, and their dark surface flashes with blue, at times steely glints, a shimmer that only reveals itself when the hand moves. Craftsmen of old associated this stone with peace of mind and self-belief, but today what matters most is that interplay of light against a dark background. The bracelet measures 18 centimetres with an adjustable 4 centimetre extension, so you can fit it to a slimmer or fuller wrist.

Only a small share of the sorted raw material makes it into this piece - what counts is the depth of colour and the surface clarity of each cabochon. Silver and quality labradorite keep rising in price, so buying at this price makes sense today. Refined European silver of high alloy purity forms the base beneath the rhodium, which guards against tarnishing and scratches, keeping the shine bright for years to come. The alloy contains no nickel, the metal responsible for allergic reactions, so the bracelet is gentle on the skin. The piece is stamped with the French maker's mark, which guarantees the metal's origin.

This bracelet works well for family celebrations - with an elegant dress with 3/4 sleeves or a cuff, in the warm light of a function room, alongside classic earrings and a thin chain. Its modern, understated form does not draw attention away from the stone, and the blue flash of the labradorite brings life to muted, light-coloured fabrics. It also suits everyday wear under a sweater sleeve, when only a glimpse of metal and a flash of the cabochon peek through. At 5.9 grams, it wears lightly all evening long.
