Description
This raw amethyst copper cuff features genuine raw amethyst crystals averaging 4 to 5mm, each one fully encased in warm, textured electroformed copper with bronze wire-wrapped accents that frame every stone with quiet, mixed-metal detail. The color ranges from pale lavender to deep violet depending on the stone, shifting softly with the light. Calm without being delicate. Layerable without being fussy. A piece that wears easily and feels like it belongs.
Amethyst is associated with calm, mental clarity, and steady presence. The February birthstone, worn for centuries as a simple, wearable reminder to slow down and return to stillness.
Why Raw Amethyst
Amethyst is a variety of quartz, silicon dioxide colored by iron impurities and natural irradiation during formation. Its color ranges from pale lavender to deep violet depending on the concentration of iron within the crystal lattice and the conditions of its formation. Found worldwide including Brazil, Uruguay, Zambia, South Korea, Austria, and Russia. Long associated with calm, clear thinking, and gentle emotional steadiness. Chosen for its distinctive purple color, its raw unpolished form that shows natural inclusions and organic shape, and its quiet, unhurried presence. No mystical claims. Just a beautiful stone with a grounded meaning that fits real life.
A note on sunlight: amethyst is photosensitive. Prolonged direct sunlight can fade the color over time. Store away from windows when not worn.

How This Handmade Amethyst Bracelet Is Made
Each raw amethyst copper cuff is made to order in my small Santa Fe studio. I hand-select every amethyst crystal for its color depth and natural character, then encase it in copper using traditional electroforming techniques. Copper grows directly around each stone through an electrical process, one slow layer at a time. Bronze wire is carefully wrapped around each crystal, adding warmth and mixed-metal detail. The antique finish deepens the character from the start. No mass production, no shortcuts. Every handmade amethyst bracelet from this studio is one of a kind.
Fit and Sizing
This cuff has a slight opening that allows for gentle adjustability. Due to the wide cuff form, measure around the widest part of your hand (knuckles) when making a fist to ensure the cuff will slide on comfortably.
To find your best fit, measure your wrist and add 0.5″ for a snug fit or 0.75″ for a relaxed, comfortable fit.
Available sizes:
XS: 5.75″ bracelet, fits approximately 5.0 to 5.25″ wrist
S: 6.5″ bracelet, fits approximately 5.75 to 6.0″ wrist
M: 7.25″ bracelet, fits approximately 6.5 to 6.75″ wrist
L: 8.0″ bracelet, fits approximately 7.25 to 7.5″ wrist
Avoid repeatedly bending the cuff open and closed. Electroformed copper is solid and structured, not flexible sheet metal. Slide the cuff on from the side over the soft spot above your wrist bone, then rotate gently into place.

Care
Remove before swimming, showering, heavy activity, or applying lotions. Store dry and away from prolonged direct sunlight, as amethyst is photosensitive and extended sun exposure can fade the color over time. Wipe gently with a soft cloth to maintain the antique finish. Avoid harsh polishing, which will remove the aged patina. Raw amethyst is relatively durable but treat each crystal gently and avoid impact. Do not repeatedly bend the cuff.
