This stunning bracelet is made of a gorgeous deep turquoise blue green colored semi-precious stone APATITE. The 8mm stone beads are quite uniform and are strung on a stretch cord. This bracelet is very comfortable and has generous “give” yet suitable tension. It is brand new and the bracelet in the picture is the exact bracelet you will receive. The first picture is the most accurate coloring. Sometimes light can play tricks on photos. Please be certain not to wear your bracelet in water or while sleeping in order to maintain the stretch cord it is strung on. Apatite is believed to decrease appetite (hunger) as well as enhance insight, creativity and learning. It is said that wearing apatite will enhance focus and clarity for concentration, intellect, acceptance and unconditional love. Please understand that this is not meant as a replacement for medical care but simply a supplement for an over all sense of well being.
