Are the beads hollow or solid?

Solid. Each bead is cast from a wax model in 925 sterling silver and finished by hand — no stamped shells, no filler. The weight on the wrist is the silver you paid for.

Will the silver darken?

It is meant to. The silver is left unplated, so it develops a Living Silver patina: shadow collects in the gaps between beads while the curves stay bright. A polishing cloth returns the light whenever you want.

Which size should I take?

S fits a 17 cm wrist, M — a 21 cm wrist. Each bracelet is made to order in about 2 weeks, so if you sit between sizes, write us before ordering.

Is there a matching piece for the neck?

Yes — the Small Beads with Heart choker carries the same cast beads and the same SIGNATURE HEART at the throat. It lives in the Chokers collection.

About this section

Solid cast beads, not hollow shells — weight you can feel on the wrist.

Every bead is cast solid in 925 sterling silver from a wax model, then assembled by hand in Bali.

No plating and no hollow stamping: the silver develops a Living Silver patina — dark in the gaps between beads, bright on the curves.

Two forms: oversized spheres gathered by a capsule (LAB), and a run of small beads broken by the SIGNATURE HEART.

Each bracelet is made to order in about 2 weeks. S fits a 17 cm wrist, M — 21 cm.

A bead bracelet usually means hollow shells on a string. A STRUGA bead is cast solid from a wax model in 925 sterling silver — each sphere an object of its own, assembled by hand into a run that carries real weight.

Two characters share the form. Big Beads with Capsule comes from the LAB world: oversized spheres set against one elongated capsule — round mass against a drawn-out line. Small Beads with Heart belongs to SIGNATURE HEART: a rhythmic run of polished beads broken by the Dual Heart, half smooth, half sharp, a single point of tension.

Nothing is plated, so nothing wears off. The gaps between beads collect shadow and darken first; the curves stay bright where the wrist polishes them. A year in, the bracelet reads as yours.
