Bracelet Size Chart
Measure your wrist circumference and find your size below. If you're between sizes, we recommend choosing the larger size for a comfortable fit.

|---|---|---|---|
| S | 14 – 15.5 cm | 5.5" – 6.1" | 16.5 cm / 6.5" |
| M Women's Average | 15.5 – 17 cm | 6.1" – 6.7" | 18 cm / 7.0" |

How to Measure Your Wrist
- 1 Wrap a flexible measuring tape or a strip of paper around your wrist, just below the wrist bone where you would normally wear a bracelet.
- 2 Mark the point where the tape or paper overlaps. Make sure it's snug but not tight — you should be able to fit one finger underneath.
- 3 If using paper, lay it flat and measure the length with a ruler. This is your wrist circumference.
- 4 Match your measurement to the size chart above. For a looser fit, add 0.5 – 1 cm to your wrist measurement.
Use a piece of string or strip of paper. Wrap it around your wrist, mark the overlap, then measure the length against a ruler.
Bead Size Reference
The bead diameter affects the overall bracelet size and appearance. Here's a quick reference:
| Bead Size | Best For | Look & Feel |
|---|---|---|
| 6 mm | Slim wrists / Delicate style | Subtle, elegant |
| 8 mm | Most wrists / Everyday wear | Balanced, classic |
| 10 mm | Medium to large wrists | Bold, noticeable |
| 12 mm | Large wrists / Statement piece | Chunky, powerful |
| 14 mm+ | Large wrists / Display pieces | Extra bold, ceremonial |
Ring Size Guide
Use the chart below to find your ring size. Measure your finger circumference and match it to the corresponding diameter.
How to Choose Your Ring Size
- If your finger circumference is around 2.17" (55 mm), we recommend selecting a ring with an inner diameter of 0.67" (17 mm).
- If your circumference is 2.20–2.24" (56–57 mm), choose a diameter of 0.71" (18 mm).
- For the most accurate measurement, visit a local jeweler to have your ring size professionally measured.
- If your knuckle is noticeably wider than the base of your finger, measure at the widest point of your knuckle. This ensures the ring can slide over comfortably while still fitting well when worn.
Measure your finger at the end of the day when fingers are at their largest. Avoid measuring when your hands are cold or swollen. If you're between two sizes, choose the larger one.
All measurements are approximate. Natural stone and wood beads may have slight size variations. If you have any questions about sizing, please don't hesitate to contact us — we're happy to help you find the perfect fit.
A hand-woven Tibetan red string bracelet featuring five-colored Vajra Knots. This is a purely spiritual amulet — it draws all its power from sacred knotting techniques and symbolic colors, without relying on metals or gemstones. Simple, traditional, and deeply meaningful.
The Red String
The bracelet's body is hand-woven from red thread using tight, continuous knotting that creates a sturdy, smooth cord. In Eastern culture, red is the ultimate symbol of protection, good fortune, and vitality. The red string establishes the bracelet's most fundamental purpose: guardianship and warding off negativity.
The Five-Colored Vajra Knots
Intermittently woven into the red cord are decorative knots made from threads in five colors — red, yellow, green, black, and white. This combination holds deep significance in Tibetan Buddhism and Chinese folk tradition. The five colors represent the Five Great Elements (Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water) and correspond to the wisdom of the Five Dhyani Buddhas. Wearing them symbolizes balance and harmony across all aspects of life. The knots themselves follow the Vajra pattern, which in Buddhism represents indestructible power capable of cutting through obstacles and negativity.
Care
Keep dry. Avoid pulling or stretching the knots. Replace when the cord shows signs of wear.
