Sergio Lub 07 NEPALESE CORD Mirror Polish Classic Bracelet

Inspired by an ancient Himalayan design explained by a Tibetan master craftsman as having been used to identify those seeking a higher spiritual awareness, this piece represents the spirit (silver) embracing the body (copper) while entwined with the mind (golden). In 1999 Sergio had the honor of gifting this bracelet to the Dalai Lama.

Sergio Lub and his family individually handcraft each bracelet in their Northern California Studios. Bracelets are adjustable and designed to be worn continuously, aging gracefully as they last for years.

About Copper & Healing:

“Copper is an essential element for the enzyme that regenerates the cartilage lining our bones and to clean up the radicals destructive to human tissues.” 
- The Copper Bracelet and Arthritis, Dr. Helmar H. A. Dollwet, Professor of Biology, University of Akron, OH
•
“Copper, when in contact with the skin, forms chelates with human sweat, and is thus absorbed through the skin.
Think of a bracelet as a time-release source of copper."
- Dr. R. Walker, University of Newcastle, Australia.
•
“Copper chelates are more effective and less toxic than drugs being used to treat arthritis.”
- Dr. J. Sorenson, University of Arkansas, USA.
