Turquoise gives the design its starting point: a blue-to-green stone, usually opaque, often carrying a darker matrix web across the surface. The silver-tone metal answers with a bright silver-coloured metal finish rather than solid silver, which keeps the palette from settling into a single note. The form is a strand that sits at the wrist, and it belongs to Lhasa Moments, a series built around highland light, stone colour and architectural lines.
Here is how each part of the piece behaves over time. Turquoise — an opaque blue-green stone, with a darker matrix webbing that shifts piece to piece. Day to day, being soft and slightly porous, it prefers to be kept clear of hard contact. The silver-tone metal is a bright cool-toned metal finish, plated rather than solid silver. Against the skin, the finish holds up well day to day, though a plated layer thins gradually where it rubs. Inside the piece, the yak bone is an ivory-toned organic material, matte and slightly porous, with natural grain marks. Handled often, it is light, warm to the touch and slightly absorbent, so it ages fastest where it meets skin.
Sizing runs across three stated ranges: 6.75–8 in, up to 9.5–10.5 in. Where the listed range is close to your measurement, it is worth confirming rather than guessing. Protection is presented as cultural context and a personal reminder, not a guaranteed result. The photographed piece is a representative example; natural variation in the selected piece is expected. Final measurements, availability and the preparation window are all confirmed in writing before payment.
Care
Keep it away from perfume, sunscreen, soap and household cleaners, none of which the stone tolerates well. Keep it away from water, perfume and abrasive cloths so the finish lasts longer. Keep it dry, out of prolonged sun, and never soak it. Avoid soaking it, and keep perfume and household cleaners off the surface. Put it on last and take it off first, and keep it in its own pouch between wears.
