A 6.5"–8.5" 925 sterling silver toggle bracelet featuring spiny oyster and turquoise cushion cut compressed stones measuring approximately 13mm in diameter. Stones will vary.

This bracelet features two distinct natural materials set in cushion cut compressed form: spiny oyster and turquoise. Spiny oyster is the common name for shells of the Spondylus genus, a family of bivalve molluscs found in warm ocean waters. The shell of the Spondylus is characterised by a naturally vivid colour range — spanning orange, red, deep red-orange, purple, and white depending on the species and the specific part of the shell — and by the spiny projections on the outer shell surface from which the common name derives. Spiny oyster shell has been used in jewelry and ornamental contexts in the Americas for thousands of years, and in the Southwest and Native American jewelry traditions it is considered one of the most valued shell materials, historically traded over long distances for its colour and rarity. Turquoise is a hydrated phosphate mineral of copper and aluminium whose characteristic blue to blue-green colour is produced by its copper content: higher copper concentration shifts the colour toward blue, while higher aluminium content and iron substitution shift it toward green. Both the spiny oyster and turquoise stones in this bracelet are compressed: compressed stones are produced by taking natural material — genuine spiny oyster shell or genuine turquoise mineral — that is too fragmentary or low-grade to be used as a cut stone in its natural state, grinding it into a fine powder, combining it with a binding resin, and compressing the mixture under pressure into a solid, uniform form. The resulting compressed stone is composed of genuine natural material throughout, but in a reconstituted and stabilised form rather than a directly cut natural stone. Both stones are cut in a cushion form: the cushion cut is a stone shape with a square or slightly rectangular outline whose four corners are rounded, producing a form that combines the broad face area of a square cut with the softened, rounded corners of a more organic shape. The stones measure approximately 13mm in diameter, and as both compressed spiny oyster and compressed turquoise are produced from natural materials, the exact colour, surface character, and precise dimensions of individual stones will vary. The supplier notes that stones will vary.

A refined two-material natural stone bracelet for anyone looking for a spiny oyster and turquoise toggle bracelet in sterling silver — cushion cut compressed spiny oyster and turquoise stones at approximately 13mm on a 925 sterling silver toggle bracelet adjustable between 6.5" and 8.5".

✨ How to Wear

To fasten: pass the toggle bar through the ring end and turn it perpendicular to lock. The toggle closure provides a 6.5"–8.5" adjustable length range. The unplated sterling silver, spiny oyster, and turquoise combination pairs naturally with Southwest, Native American-inspired, and natural material jewelry.
