This pair of vibrant wrap bracelets features a lively color palette where orange and purple reign supreme. They dazzle with the exquisite union of sparkling crystal and glass beads meticulously woven with artisanal expertise by Guatemala's Domingo Reanda on a special bead loom. Enhancing their allure, polished Tibetan-style pewter buttons bestow a dash of refinement and grace.

Artisan Domingo explains, "I carefully selected vibrant tones interwoven with metallic hues for the first bracelet, signifying the radiant energy of the present moment and the protective shield against negative influences and physical harm. It is my sincere hope that this bracelet will stand as a perpetual reminder to maintain a positive perspective and to live fearlessly.

I've crafted the second bracelet in vibrant, rainbow-inspired tones to represent joy. I hope it serves as a reminder to live life, to live it happily, and to accept and love yourself just as you are. Remember that you are unique and special, deserving of all the love and good things the universe has to offer."
