Lucky Seven Sterling Bracelet
During the 19th century, the seven nails found in a horseshoe were considered lucky. Traditionally, this symbolism was represented in a vintage brooch that was worn for good luck. Embrace this tradition with Sally Lowe’s sterling silver bracelet, made of a solid silver casting from a vintage brooch mounted on an adjustable 6-inch cuff. This cuff will become your new favorite good luck charm. Shop at sallylowe.com.
Chrysocolla Cluster Bracelet
A sizable chrysocolla stone from the Congo is surrounded by a cluster of smaller stones set in sterling silver, making a magnificent bracelet. Each chrysocolla cluster bracelet varies due to the stone’s individual qualities. Western jewelry designer Laura Ingalls mounts the cluster on repurposed old leather from horse tack, giving this piece an authentic western feel. This leather and stone bracelet is the perfect fusion of old meets new. Shop at lauraingallsdesigns.com.
