Choosing your size

These are standard US bracelet sizes — if you know your bracelet size, order it directly.

Otherwise, wrap a tape measure or strip of paper snugly around your wrist bone and choose the size matching your measurement:

Small — 6.5 in / 16.5 cm — fits a 5.5–6.0 in (14–15.2 cm) wrist
Medium — 7 in / 17.8 cm — fits a 6.0–6.5 in (15.2–16.5 cm) wrist. Our most popular size and the standard for women's bracelets.
Large — 7.5 in / 19 cm — fits a 6.5–7.0 in (16.5–17.8 cm) wrist

The lengths above are the bracelet's own length, not your wrist size. Each includes ½–1 in (1.3–2.5 cm) of ease so it drapes and turns freely without sliding over your hand. Between sizes, size up. Outside this range? Message me — custom lengths are made to order at no extra charge.

What keshi pearls are

Keshi pearls form by accident. No nucleus is implanted — the mussel produces the pearl entirely on its own, so it is solid nacre from edge to edge. Because nothing shapes them, they grow in flat, folded, petal-like forms, and no two are the same.

That solid-nacre structure is why the luster here is so bright. There's no bead core under a thin coating; the light reflects off the pearl's own crystal layers, which is what produces the sharp metallic sheen. Keshi is rarer than ordinary cultured pearls for the simple reason that farms can't plan for it.

About rose quartz

Rose quartz is the pink variety of natural quartz, and here it's cut freeform so each piece keeps its own outline. The stones are translucent rather than opaque, so they catch light between the pearls instead of sitting flat.

It's long been called the stone of love — associated with compassion, self-kindness, and gentleness toward yourself and others, which is why it's a common gift between partners, friends, and mothers and daughters. Whether or not you hold with crystal traditions, that association is what makes this a meaningful piece to give.

Why these two together

Keshi pearls are cool white and sharply reflective. Rose quartz is warm pink and softly translucent. One is opaque and bright, the other clear and quiet — the contrast is what keeps a pale bracelet from looking washed out. The gold accents warm the whole thing.

How to wear it

Light enough for daily wear, soft enough for a wedding. The magnetic clasp closes with one hand, which matters if you're fastening it yourself every morning. Suits brides, bridesmaids, Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, birthdays, and anniversaries.

Care

Put it on last, after perfume, hairspray, and lotion
Wipe with a soft dry cloth after wearing
No water, chlorine, saltwater, or ultrasonic cleaners
Keep rose quartz out of prolonged direct sunlight — strong UV can fade the pink over time
Store flat in the pouch
Pearls are soft (Mohs 2.5–4.5) — keep apart from metal jewelry
Keep the clasp dry; plating wears with moisture and friction

FAQ

What are keshi pearls? Pearls that form without a nucleus — solid nacre throughout, grown entirely by the mussel. Their flat, petal-like shapes happen naturally and can't be farmed to order.

Are these real pearls? Yes — real freshwater pearls. Their irregular petal shapes are how you tell them from glass or plastic imitations.

Is the rose quartz natural? Yes. Natural rose quartz, freeform cut.

Is the clasp solid gold? No. Eco brass with 18K gold plating.

Will the magnetic clasp stay closed? Yes, for normal daily wear. It's not recommended for sport or heavy activity, and it should be avoided by anyone with a pacemaker or implanted medical device.

What size should I order? Medium (7 in) fits most women and is the standard in women's jewelry. Buying a gift and unsure? Choose Medium.

Can I shower or swim in it? No. Water and chlorine damage nacre and plating. Take it off first.

Packaging and care

Your jewelry arrives in a protective gift box. Keep pearls away from perfume, lotion, water, and jewelry cleaners. Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth after wear and store separately.
