Bracelet with semi-precious stones

All our brass bracelets are nickel and cadmium-free, handmade by skilled craftsmen and these have a mounted half gemstone. Since the stones are all genuine, they also vary slightly in appearance - some with more shine, others with more detail. Brass is a soft metal, and therefore it is easy to attach the bracelet to any wrist.

Brass was a typical material in the Viking Age – it had the same value as bronze because they looked very similar. The Vikings were not masters of chemistry, so they did bronze jewellery in some regions and in other regions of brass. Many jewelry made from half gemstone or mounted with a half gemstone have been found in Viking graves. They were brought to Scandinavia from the far east after traders returned from their long journeys.
