Labradorite bracelet, double strand bracelet, smooth labradorite ovals, faceted labradorite, Bali popular sterling toggle clasp, sterling silver
If you are a fan of labradorite, then you will love this two strand bracelet. The strand with the larger beads is made up of three beautiful labradorite smooth ovals that measure 15mm (.59 inch) by 20mm (.79 inch) across. These stones have a fair bit of colour: although predominantly blue, hints of purple and green can also be seen especially when hit by light. They have a beautiful lustre and are quite lovely. This strand also contains 4mm (.16 inch) and 8mm (.31 inch) faceted popular labradorite rounds and 4mm (.16 inch) and 6mm (.24 inch) smooth labradorite rounds. Nestled around the oval stones are sterling silver beads made in Bali as well as some smaller sterling silver beads. The second strand is mostly made up of sweet little 3mm (.12 inch) faceted labradorite rounds as well as 5mm (.20 inch) and 8mm (.31 inch) faceted stones and 5mm (.20 inch) smooth stones. Hanging from the second strand are charms that I made using more of the 3mm (.12 inch) faceted stones which are attached to sterling silver beads. Both strands are attached to a sterling silver toggle clasp from which I've also hung a large sterling silver bead which measures 10mm (.39 inch) by 12mm (.47 inch) across. The toggle clasp and large bead are made in Bali from 925 sterling silver. All other findings are also sterling silver. The bracelet is strung on 49 strand Beadalon stringing wire. This bracelet comfortably fits a 6 ½ inch wrist.
A comfortably fitting bracelet will generally be ¾ of an inch larger than the size of your wrist. I've used a bracelet sizer to determine the wrist size for each bracelet but keep in mind that the bracelets will also fit wrists a bit larger as well as a bit smaller: some people like bracelets to fit loosely while others prefer a more snug fit.
Canadian and US dimes are the same size.
