The needles grew inside the quartz while the host crystal was still forming, and they lie in whatever direction the growth allowed, which is why some beads show a dense golden brush and others show a few isolated strands. The Chinese trade separates thin-needled material from the thicker, more metallic golden variety. Base hardness is 7; the rutile needles are harder still but are enclosed, so they do not affect wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFit and sizing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is a single loop, elastic bracelet on elastic with no clasp, and fits approx. 15-18 cm (5.9-7.1 in) wrist. Because the core is elastic it rolls on over the hand, so there is nothing to fasten one-handed. If you need a specific length, message us before ordering and we will tell you what is in stock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCare\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWipe with a soft damp cloth. Avoid knocks and sudden heat, since the boundary between needle and quartz can be a point of weakness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eShipping and returns\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOrders are processed in 1-3 business days from our Shenzhen studio.

Untreated. The needles are natural rutile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat wrist size does this bracelet fit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is strung on elastic with no clasp and measures about 15 to 18 cm (5.9 to 7.1 in) of inner circumference, which fits most adult wrists. If your wrist is outside that range, message us before ordering and we will tell you what we can do with the stock on hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I wear it in the shower or to swim?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTake it off first. Repeated soaking weakens the elastic core faster than wear does, and chlorine and salt leave a film on the bead surface that dulls it. A splash is fine; a daily shower is not.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat happens if the elastic breaks?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt can be restrung. The cord is a standard 0.8 mm elastic, and any jeweller can replace it in a few minutes. Message us and we will tell you the cord diameter and bead count so the repair matches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eRelated reading\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/de\/collections\/new-arrivals\"\u003eNew arrivals\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/de\/collections\/bracelets\"\u003eAll crystal bracelets\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/de\/blogs\/journal\/sterling-silver-crystal-bracelet-guide\"\u003eSterling silver bracelet guide\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Vincryst","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52480519143719,"sku":"VIN-TM-003","price":54.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/2011\/1143\/files\/VIN-TM-003-01.jpg?v=1793293909","url":"https:\/\/vincryst.com\/de\/products\/golden-rutilated-quartz-bracelet-for-men","provider":"Vincryst","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
