Frequently Asked Questions
Product Info
How do I know what size bracelet to order?
Bracelets are not returnable so it is important to order the right size. The easiest way is to use a string and then measure the string.
CORD BRACELETS – Wrap the string around the widest part of your HAND (across the knuckles) and measure the length. The bracelet needs to be large enough to fit over the widest part of the hand and then adjusts to size once on the wrist. It doesn’t have to be exact and the standard 8.5″ is most popular. They close down to about 5″. Men typically need a 9 or 9.5″.
STRETCH BRACELETS – Wrap the string around your WRIST in the location where you would like the bracelet to sit (some like above the wrist bone and some lower on the hand) and measure the length. Account for how loose you would like the bracelet. You don’t want it too large or it will slip off the hand. The most common size is 6.5″ – 7″.
Can I get something custom?
Yes, we do this all the time. Use the form on the Contact Us page with your ideas. Different combination of beads can be selected for the bracelets or custom necklaces can be made.
Can you help me select stones (beads) for myself or others?
Yes. we do this all the time. We can tune in and intuitively help select or offer ideas of which gemstones may be most useful for you or others.
Where is your jewelry made?
All our jewelry is handcrafted in Mystic, Connecticut.
What does Reiki Infused mean?
Everything is made up of energy and because of this, items, particularly handmade, can reap the benefits of receiving Reiki. It can be looked at as cleansing on the energetic level. For example, working with the gemstone beads… they have been mined, manufactured and shipped. They have been through a lot. The beads are given Reiki when received them and Reiki flows while creating the jewelry. This raises the energy or vibration of the gemstones and jewelry. Being Reiki infused enhances the existing healing and spiritual properties of the stones. Tania has been a Reiki Master since 2005.
What size beads to you use?
Almost all our jewelry uses approx. 8mm (1/3″) gemstone or wood beads.
Where do you get your beads?
The raw gemstones are mined from all over the world. I source my beads from reputable suppliers that offer the highest quality beads. We take pride in the quality of the beads we use in our jewelry. Many strands of beads have been returned because they do not match our high standards. We know crystals and gemstones so are able to determine if the beads are authentic.
What materials do you use for your jewelry?
The corded style bracelets and necklaces are created with natural waxed cotton cord.
The stretch style bracelets are strung on professional grade jeweler’s elastic. The knot is also glued to prevent coming undone. Spacer beads are Tibetan silver.
Ear wires for the earrings are surgical stainless steel. Silver beads are Tibetan silver.
I wore my bracelet all the time and a cord broke, can you fix it?
We can remake the cord bracelets for $10 ea. plus shipping. This option is really only feasible if you have several you want to have done at the same time due to the cost of shipping to us and back. The stones still have their healing qualities so can be kept in a pocket or purse to be near you. Another option, you can restring the beads on fishing line (monofilament) and hang them from a window as a “sun catcher”.
How do I energetically cleanse my bracelets?
The simplest way is to hold them in your hands while relaxing. Just set the intention that you are sending them pure white energy (love) for about 5 minutes or more.
If you have a safe place they can be left outside for a day out of the sun, they will cleanse and recharge that way as well.
Or, they can be smudged with sage smoke.
Can I get a copy of the healing properties with the bracelet?
Each bracelet comes gift boxed with the healing properties printed on the inside cover.
