silver organic sculpted by hand bracelet, ethically handmade jewelry chicago

Zapal Wave Bangle Bracelet

$135.00
Details

The Zapal is a handmade silver cuff that moves like water — its continuous wave form crafted from brass with a soft, brushed silver finish. Sinuous and tactile, this artisan bracelet is shaped entirely by hand in Medellín, Colombia, with the undulating silhouette inspired by the rivers and coastlines of the Colombian landscape. A wearable piece of sustainable, ethical jewelry that feels as beautiful as it looks.

Dimensions: 7" interior circumference 

Handmade in Colombia. Individually handcrafted, every piece reflects the artisan’s touch. Variations are not flaws—they’re part of what makes each creation uniquely yours.

Care Guide

Avoid contact with salt water, chlorine, excessive moisture and sunlight. Sunlight may change the color of some stones and metals.

For silver, gold or gold-plated jewelry, use a soft, dry cloth to polish gently. If necessary, gently wash with warm water and neutral soap. Dry with a clean cloth.

Honoring the Land, One Thread at a Time

Meet Laura and Ana María — two sisters from Medellín, Colombia who have spent years perfecting an extraordinary technique: hand-stitching and starching cotton thread onto 24-karat gold-plated brass, each piece finished by local women (mothers and formerly incarcerated) whose skilled hands bring every earring, bracelet, and brooch to life.
