This one features a twist of shimmering Sterling Silver and Copper. This sensational bracelet will match up beautifully with any other Silver and Copper jewelry that's already in your collection. Copper bracelets have been worn since Roman times in the belief that they are instrumental in affording relief to ARTHRITIC and RHEUMATIC conditions. Regular use of any metal polish will enhance the natural luster of pure copper. This bracelet is not meant to diagnose or heal any medical condition. This one is 1/8" wide. It'll fit a 5-1/2" to a 6-1/2" wrist.

The Navajo were the first to produce jewelry that required the working of metal. Their love of metal working can be traced to the Spanish arrival in the Southwest. The silver bridles and horse trappings of the Conquistadors were admired and often stolen by the raiding Navajos. Later when the area became part of Mexico, Mexican silversmiths traded jewelry to wealthy Navajo for sheep. Jewelry became a symbol of wealth.
