THE STORY OF THIS PIECE
The third form of the brand — a thorn with sharp angles. The third form of the brand. THORN — a thorn with sharp angles.
Read the THORN form story→EXPLORE STRUGA
Chain of THORN links with edges deliberately sharpened — the bracelet is felt through the skin, not only seen.
THORN is the design code born from STRUGA's earliest CNC work: links with sharp edges, industrial geometry. each link is cast from a wax model in 925 silver, then sharpened by hand. The chain presses lightly against the wrist — a constant tactile presence. Living Silver finish.
Available in S / M. A bracelet that reminds you it is there.
Material: 925 sterling silver, no rhodium plating.
Family / world: THORN, from the CODEX world — sharp-edged links, industrial geometry.
Finish: Living Silver — the metal darkens with air and skin; recesses go dark, friction lightens the raised edges. Patina is a property, not a defect.
Character: link edges sharpened by hand — the chain is felt through the skin, not only seen.
Care: soft cloth or silver-cleaning solution; avoid harsh chemicals and ultrasonic baths.
How does the Thorn Bracelet compare to the other THORN objects?
The Thorn Bracelet is the lightest way to wear the THORN link: 9 grams of 925 silver at $195. Four more objects are built from the same sharpened link. They differ in weight, in price and in where they sit on the body.
| Object | Weight | Sizes | Price | Where it sits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Thorn Bracelet | 9–10 g | S 17 cm · M 21 cm | $195 | Wrist — a chain that moves with the arm |
| Big Thorn Bracelet | 45–95 g | 16–23 cm | $1,100 | Wrist — rigid silver with carbon, the heaviest object of the family |
| Thorn Links Chain | 11–18 g | 40–75 cm | $245 | Neck — the same link at a longer length |
| Thorn Ring | 4.7–12.7 g | 16–22 | $140 | Finger — a single link, worn alone |
| Thorn Earring | 2.5 g | one size | $125 | Ear — the smallest object of the family |
Take the bracelet for weight you notice but do not carry: at 9 grams the chain follows the wrist. Take the Big Thorn for a fixed object that does not move at all.
Who is the Thorn Bracelet for, and when is it worn?
The bracelet is made for everyday wear, not for an occasion. It is unisex: S at 17 cm fits a narrow wrist, M at 21 cm sits loose on a wider one. The chain works on a bare wrist and next to other STRUGA silver — a watch on the same arm, the Thorn Links Chain at the neck.
At $195 it is often a first STRUGA piece and the entry point into the THORN family. The sharpened edges make the object noticeable without extra volume, so it holds its place under a sleeve. As a gift it goes to someone who wears silver daily and prefers an object that changes: the metal darkens over the first weeks and looks different on every wrist.
Someone who wants a smooth, unchanging surface should take a different piece. The edges are sharpened on purpose and the silver is left bare, so both the form and the colour make themselves known.
About STRUGA. STRUGA is a dark silver jewelry brand founded by Dmitry Strugovshchikov and Ekaterina Strugovshchikova, handcrafted in our Bali workshop by master silversmiths. Every piece is 925 sterling silver. This bracelet carries the Living Silver finish: bare silver with no rhodium plating, which darkens on its own from air and skin. The darkening is part of the design. It is a brutalist object that reacts and changes through contact with the environment and the wearer.

Ask a question →Frequently asked questions
How much does the Thorn Bracelet weigh, and how does it sit on the wrist?
The Thorn Bracelet is 9 grams of 925 silver. You feel the chain on the wrist, but it does not pull. The edges of the links are sharp, so the chain is felt by the skin — not only seen by the eye.
What sizes are available?
The bracelet comes in two sizes, S and M. If you are between sizes, or want the length adjusted to your own wrist, reach out through Custom Order and we will help you choose.
The links really are sharp — won't they scratch?
The edges are sharpened on purpose: this is the THORN form, the thorn itself. The angle prickles the skin slightly — that is the tactility of the bracelet. The edges are finished by hand, so the chain does not cut, but it makes itself known. This is part of the object's character, not a defect.
Why does the silver darken, and how do I care for it?
The surface is Living Silver — 925 silver without rhodium plating. The bracelet arrives light and darkens with air and skin: the recesses of the relief darken, while friction lightens the raised edges. On THORN's sharpened angles this reads especially clearly. Patina is a property, not a defect. To bring the metal back to the light, care for it with a soft cloth or a silver-cleaning solution. Avoid harsh chemicals and ultrasonic baths.
What is the THORN family?
THORN is a STRUGA family from the CODEX world — the brand's third form. It is the aesthetic of the thorn: a sharp angle that holds its own beauty. Two approaches meet in the form — CNC milling and 3D-modelling. THORN began as a single chain link and grew into bracelets, chokers, earrings and rings. Handcrafted in Bali, Indonesia.
