Simple and stylish, this lotus cuff bracelet with a matte finish is delicate enough to wear alone for an understated style, or layer it with other bracelets to make a statement. The story of the lotus flower is a symbol of magical rebirth and has a spiritual connection to Eastern cultures. With its roots based in mud, it submerges every night into murky river water, and undeterred by its dirty environment, miraculously re-blooms the next morning without residue on its petals. The lotus flower blooms most beautifully from the deepest and thickest mud.Â
Crafted from a mix of brass with a silver-plated finish, this Double Lotus Cuff Bracelet features lotus details about 1/3 inch in size. Its inner diameter is roughly 2.5 inches and offers slight adjustability for a comfortable fit.

About the Artisans
India has always been renowned for its rich silk fabrics, woodcarvings and carpets. However, many of these products are produced in conditions of abject poverty for the craftsmen, exploited by large producers and moneylenders. Asha Handicrafts is a not-for-profit making body, based in Mumbai, India, working to promote Fair Trade and Fair Trade practices. As a member organisation of The World Fair Trade Organization , Asha Handicrafts ensures that the benefits of handicraft production reach the craftspeople themselves.
