x-Amazon Best Finds - Jewelry - Bracelet Copper - Heavenly Metals Pure Copper Cuban Curb Chain Bracelet for Women & Men

The Heavenly Metals Cuban chain copper bracelet is built on a solid 99.9% pure copper chain, then finished with an added layer of 99.9% pure copper electroplate for extra shine. Copper over copper, with no brass, zinc, or steel hiding underneath. THE CUBAN LINK. Classic interlocking Cuban link pattern - bold, heavy, and instantly recognizable. The widest sizes make a real statement piece while the narrower widths wear comfortably every day. WHY COPPER OVER COPPER MATTERS. Most plated copper jewelry is cheap base metal wearing a thin copper skin. When that skin wears through you see yellow or silver underneath and the piece is done. Ours cannot do that. What shows through is the same pure copper the chain is made of. WHAT TO EXPECT, HONESTLY. The bright electroplate is a starting point, not a permanent coating. It wears at contact points first, anywhere the piece rubs or meets lotion, soap, sweat, or moisture. For a few weeks it can look uneven or two toned. That is the finish thinning, not the bracelet failing, and it evens out as the whole piece settles into a patina. Exposed copper oxidizes, turning warm brown, then darker, and sometimes green where it meets skin and moisture. Only genuine copper does this. YOU CONTROL THE LOOK. Want it bright again? Lemon and salt, a baking soda paste, or a copper polishing cloth brings the shine back, as often as you like. Want the aged look sooner? Wear it daily and let it go. Keep it dry between wears to slow it down. THE CLASP. Two small connecting rings and the lobster clasp are brass with a copper plate. This is intentional. The clasp is the highest stress point on any chain and brass is far stronger there. Every link in the chain itself is 99.9% pure copper. Available in 5mm, 7mm, 9mm, and 12mm widths and 6.5 to 9 inch lengths in half inch increments. Measure your wrist and add about three quarters of an inch for a comfortable fit. When in doubt, size up. Arrives in a Heavenly Metals gift box. USA Brand.
