These 21cm+ starter bracelets are created using 8mm THAI SILVER hammered links finished off with a silverplated toggle clasp. It is well to remember that because of the Uniqueness of Hilltribe Silver and the high pricing - (usually sold per link), doing a google search for ideas for designs will show that most are created in mixed medium, and usually the more lovely because of this. A google search will also show how SCARCE it is in SA, especially components for beading, and more especially at THIS PRICING!!!
Specification of Each Length of Chain:

High content Silver (app. 97%) made by the Karen-hilltribal-families in Lampchun & Chiang Mai district of N.Thailand. Each family specialises in only certain designs & each piece is handcrafted using traditional methods passed down from generation to generation. No other metals are added (except very minor solder spots on some pieces (IF needed) so this silver is purer than usual.These pieces are UNIQUE!!!,

Please note that this guarantee does not apply to minor defects consistent with and typical of this handcrafted item (smelting, forming and design totally handcrafted by the Karen Hill Tribes) and I strongly recommend that if you are looking for an item shiny, fine and smooth you rather search the sterling silver which is only approx 82% pure as compared to this 97% silver content. These goods are ethnic and bulky, produced in the homes of the Tribes as a source of sustainable income, and NOT in precision workshops for economic wealth alone! THIS IS THE TRUE HILL TRIBE HANDCRAFTED SILVER, not the manufactured ones sold by big companies exploiting the spirit in which these designs are made and now being advertised all over the web. Please be certain of the difference before buying.
