Since as long as I can remember, I have always been completely intrigued by the ocean, all of the plants and animals within it, and how they all work together in incredible symbiotic relationships. The beautiful coast of California is filled with unique flora and fauna making this particular intertidal zone incredibly special and a vital part of the health of our overall environment.
I created this statement charm bracelet as a reminder of how special our coast is and the need to take care of it to keep it healthy and thriving.
All of the silver work in this bracelet is completely handmade by myself; no part of it is cast and it is all 100% one-of-a-kind. I hand fabricated a mussel shell, a sea star, and a bat ray to accent these California gems. This piece features a sagentite agate from Malibu Beach, Fransiscan Chert from Cambria, and a chunk of aqua beach glass from Ventura. Each of these gems was found by myself on my many adventures. The beach glass remains as I found it but I decided to cut and cab the stones to show off their inner beauty.
This sterling silver statement charm bracelet is completely adjustable and is one size fits allThe bracelt is 8.5" (214mm) at its longest and can be adjusted to be as short as 6.75" (172mm)

Sterling silver is fine to wear in water, HOWEVER, it will rapidly tarnish if worn in saltwater or a swimming pool
To regularly clean stone and silver, gently scrub with a soft toothbrush, warm water, and dish soap
To remove natural tarnish, if you please, purchase a Sunshine Cloth or Propolish pads to gently rub away excess tarnish. These can be purchased from various online retailers such as Amazon or Rio Grande.
