Three questions, one bracelet.

How to measureSmall, quiet, kept on.
I wear the amethyst to bed. It is the only jewellery I do not take off.
Smaller and quieter than I expected. That is why I kept it.
The box is nicer than the price suggests. Gave one to my sister the same week.
Measured my wrist with the guide, size M was right. Beads sit flat, no gaps.
Wore the tiger's eye through a month of interviews. Got the job. Keeping the bracelet.
How to wear it, and how to keep it.
Wear it on the hand you lead with. One bracelet is enough; two is a stack, three is the limit. Take it off for showers, swimming and sleep. Wipe the beads with a soft cloth after a long day. Elastic cord lasts a year or two of daily wear; we restring for the cost of postage.
On real wrists, on ordinary days.

For loveStrung one at a time, checked twice.
Every bead is natural stone, sorted for colour and size before it is strung. We knot the cord by hand, in small runs, and check each piece against a wrist form before it goes into the box. No plating, no glass, no dye.
First bracelet, first week.
