Bracelet Sizes & Fit Tips

Getting the right size matters. So here’s a quick cheat sheet:

Size Opening Size Length of Brass
8 inches 1 1/4 inches 6 3/4 inches
7 1/2 inches 1 inch 6 1/2 inches
7 inches 1 inch 6 inches
6 1/2 inches 1 inch 5 1/2 inches
6 inches 7/8 inch 5 1/8 inches

Sizing Tip: Measure your wrist just above the bone and add 1/2 inch to get your cuff size.   If your wrist measure 6 inches in circumference, order a size 6 1/2.

A Quick Heads Up About Brass Jewelry

This cuff is made from Nu Gold, which is 85% copper and 15% zinc. And here’s the thing—copper reacts with skin. It can sometimes turn your skin green, especially if you're sweating, wearing lotion, or just naturally have a higher body acidity.

A few things to keep in mind:

  • Not everyone gets green marks
  • It’s not harmful
  • It washes off easily with soap and water
  • Some people say the copper absorption is actually good for you

Bottom line? Green skin doesn’t mean poor quality. It’s just a natural reaction with copper. If you want to avoid it, just skip lotions or sunscreen where the bracelet sits.

And no, refunds aren't given for green marks. It’s all part of the Nu Gold charm!

Why Nu Gold is Having a Moment

Nu Gold is basically the cool cousin of real gold. You get that beautiful golden glow without dropping a month’s rent. And because it’s a brass alloy, it’s stronger than pure gold, which makes it great for everyday wear.
