The Infinity Bracelet

The infinity symbol is a commonly known math concept referring to a number far larger than any other.

It is often associated with that which is endless. Many people believe that infinity bracelets are symbolic of an unending bond or relationship. 

Couples often gift each other with infinity bracelets or rings as a sign of unwavering and persistent love. The infinity bracelet tells the tale of a love that can withstand any storm or trauma. 

The infinity bracelet is a beautiful reminder of the power of love (even if it won’t reveal who exactly has your attention).

If you have an anniversary or birthday coming up, consider looking for an infinity bracelet that will appeal to your partner’s personal style and preference. 

James Avery’s leather knot infinity bracelet is a beautifully handcrafted piece that perfectly symbolizes the meaning of this symbol. 

The Chakra Bracelet

Chakras represent a core connection between your physical and your spiritual body. It’s an ancient practice of meditation, with seven total chakras around the body, and seven different centers of energy. Kernowcraft has a great summary of chakra and the different stones associated with each.

Understandably, any chakra bracelet can have a powerful significance! Each chakra is associated with a certain part of the body, and chakra stones allows these energies to flow through you.

Yeah, I know this can sound a little ‘woo-woo’. But if you’ve ever worn this type of bracelet, then maybe you’ve noticed feeling a bit more positive and balanced.

Chakra bracelets are typically available in a wide array of colors.

The seven-stone beaded chakra bracelet from Egret Jewelry is made from natural gemstones and seed beads. These elements are designed to promote an inner state of equilibrium.

Arthur & Livingston also make a beautiful chakra bracelet that can go with most outfits. 

Eagle Bracelets

Leather bracelets already have a masculine feel. Adding an animal-shaped silver amulet usually only enhances that.

Eagle-shaped bracelets are particularly popular. In Native American culture, the eagle is a predatory animal that represents freedom, love, honor, and courageousness. 

These are usually made from sterling silver and attached to a leather strap. Its overall message is that strength is a possibility even in the midst of adversity.

So, whenever you need to draw on your inner strength, let this Legends Eagle leather bracelet from John Hardy serve as a reminder of that wellspring of courage within you. 

The Washer Bracelet

Washer bracelets are typically made from a waxed cotton cord and a steel washer, and are actually pretty easy to make at home. Another variation uses washer beads.

A homemade washer bracelet can take on any meaning that you assign to it. You can engrave the initials of someone close to you and wear the bracelet every day as a reminder. 

The simplistic design of M. Cohen’s silver washer bracelet makes it a cool and casual accessory to wear no matter the occasion. 

Mood Bracelets

In the 70s, mood rings were an impressive and unique fashion statement. For those who are still into this nostalgic trend; enter mood bracelets.

These adjustable bracelets are the epitome of casual cool and the perfect throwback to an era of free love, free speech and unhindered creativity. 

You can use this bracelet to share your mood without saying a word or even to track your own mood changes throughout the day.

This is the type of accessory that brings a whole new meaning to the idea of wearing your heart on your sleeve.
