Handcrafted 10mm unisex stretch bead bracelet designed with natural gold Tiger's Eye and black Lava Stone gemstones with natural Hematite cube accent beads. The three-dimensional stainless steel BEAR focal bead measures 1/2". Eight species of bear exist in the world, native to every continent except Antarctica, Australia, and Africa. This means that bear symbolism differs around the world and different cultures have strong connections to different species. Read below for the properties of the gemstones used in this bracelet. Also shown in the last photos is a wolf design available with other animal bracelets found in separate listings in my shop.

TIGER'S EYE: associated with a host of healing properties; such as bringing insight into complex situations, protecting us from negative energies, deepening mental clarity, attracting good luck, grounding and centering personal energy, and dispelling fears. It helps us to see ourselves and the world better. It is an intense yet well-grounded natural gemstone, said to enhance psychic and empathic energies, while protecting its wearer with an unblinking eye.

LAVA STONE: a grounding stone that strengthens one's connection to Mother Earth. It supplies strength, courage, and stability through times of change. The grounding qualities of calming Lava Stone calms the emotions with intense energy and is specifically useful in dissipating anger. Thought to be a rebirth stone that sheds unneeded emotional layers to its natural deep connection to Mother Earth’s center.

HEMATITE: spiritually, it has a magnetic nature which makes it perfect for Male/Female energies. Hematite will bring balance to a person's physical and etheric bodies. Hematite is one of the best crystals you can utilize if you want to harness the power of Earth to dispel negativity and lend you strength. It is associated with the root chakra, and by unblocking this chakra, the stone will nurture your desires and most basic needs. Hematite will keep you secure, stable and balanced.

♡ All jewelry comes with a burlap jewelry gift pouch and is shipped using Earth-friendly, recycled, environmentally-conscious packing materials. 

♡ All bracelets come with instruction tips on how to best care for your stretch bead bracelet.

HANDCRAFTED JEWELRY ~ Bracelets are constructed one at a time and therefore no two will be exactly alike. Due to variations in both materials and sourced supplies, slight imperfections are to be expected. Natural beads and stones often contain flaws, blemishes, variations and inclusions. I always do my best to accurately reproduce the designs portrayed in my shop. Please note also that photography presents differently on varying devices.

♡ CARE INSTRUCTIONS ♡ 

Your stretch bracelet is handcrafted to be strong and lasting, but elastic, stones, beads and metal plating are not eternal. Natural wear and tear will also affect your jewelry. By following these simple tips, however, you can maintain your jewelry’s beauty for as long as possible:

> DO NOT GET YOUR BRACELET WET ~ Keep your jewelry away from moisture. It is best to remove your bracelet before washing your hands, showering, exercising and swimming since contact with moisture can break down the elastic, ruin finishes and tarnish metals and charms. 
> AVOID CONTACT WITH CHEMICALS ~ Perfume, soap, moisturizer, lotion, hand sanitizer or other chemicals can weaken the elastic, harm natural crystals and result in the discoloration and peeling of beads and gemstones. 
> AVOID HEAT EXPOSURE ~ Leaving your bracelet in sunlight or exposed to heat for an extended period of time may lead to elastic erosion and can cause beads and metal to discolor. Remove your bracelet while exercising.
> ROLL IT ON AND OFF ~ Do not over-stretch your bracelet! It has been made with pre-stretched elastic. Over-stretching it beyond its capacity will cause it to break. To keep from overly stretching it to put it on and off, slide your fingers into the bracelet first, then gently roll the beads over your knuckles and then onto your wrist. Do the same when taking your bracelet off.
> STORE SAFELY ~ Always store your jewelry safely in a soft pouch or secured in a box or drawer. Never wear your jewelry to bed and remove when sleeping.
