An alternative to the mass-produced big hole bracelet systems, and some very special handmade spacers and charms to go with them.
This is the original handmade sterling silver bracelet woven in the beautiful Jens Pind Linkage from tiny sterling silver rings and especially designed to fit big hole or silver cored beads from most bracelet systems including Pandora, Troll and other European brands.
It features a double lobster clasp, so you can add your beads and charms from one side, but also put on your bracelet without losing them!
The diameter of no more than 3.4mm, means you can use this bracelet for beads sized for all known bracelet systems, as well as those produced by the many talented lampwork artists selling silver cored and uncored big hole beads.
With a standard length of 8.25" (21cm), this will fit a 7" (17.75) wrist, allowing for a full compliment of beads and charms,
I am happy to resize up to an inch in either direction at no extra cost - please provide your actual wrist measurement to ensure an accurate fit.
The tag can be personalised with up to two initials - please include details of these with your order.
Not everyone gets on with lobster clasps, so I created a new version of the dominica big hole bead bracelet with a unique toggle design featuring a clever hidden clasp under the t-bar to allow you to add or change beads without losing them every time you put your bracelet on.
A choice of textures is available for your clasp - hammered, starburst or brushed - if you'd like a different texture or pattern, or a personalised stamped toggle, just contact me to discuss exactly what you'd like.
As always, the basic size is 8.25" - to fit a 7" wrist, but I'm happy to adjust the sizing to fit you perfectly. Simply let me know your actual wrist size when you place your order and I'll make sure it's the right length for you (and your beads!)
This version of the toggle clasped dominica bracelet features the unique hidden clasp under the bar to allow for easy bead changes or additions, and has a very special gemset toggle.
The one shown has an amazonite cabochon, but other options are always available. If you don't see the gemstone or colour you like in the list, feel free to contact me to discuss what you might like on your bracelet - many people choose their clasp to match a particular bead set, or to suit a particular outfit. I keep a huge range of cabochons in stock, as well as the option of gold accents, or various alternative textures.
I found a lot of people seemed to be wondering how else to wear their big hole beads and charms, especially if they had more than would fit on a bracelet or two.
So, I've created a special, short version of the jpl chain I use for my Dominica bracelets, and put balls on it!
With the easy to swap earwires, this style lets you wear one, two, or at a push three beads on each earring - though if you wanted a shorter or longer version, that can be done too.
This standard version has a drop of 1.25" (3cm) from the base of the earwire, which is 3/4" (2cm) in length. The wires are formed from 0.8mm argentium silver, so are highly tarnish resistant. The handwoven jens pind chain has a diameter of no more than 3.4mm, so will take big hole beads and charms for most bracelet systems. The sterling silver stop bead at the end has a 5mm diameter, but if you have charms with a larger hole, I can happily accommodate this. Please just add a note with purchase, and I'll make them with a larger bead.
All components have been fully hardened and polished to a very high shine.
This is a miniature version of the classic russian wedding ring, fabricated in the same way as the full size version.
