Care
Worn every day. Kept for life.
What it is made of, how to wear it, and what we do when the cord wears out.
01Wearing it
Made for every day.
Every day
YesThe cord was chosen because it survives being worn every day.
In the shower
YesYes.
Chlorine and salt water
Take it offTake it off for chlorine and salt water, and it will look the same in a year as it does now.
With time
NormalSilver tarnishes and cord softens with wear. Both are normal ageing; the cord is covered by the lifetime replacement.

How to measure
Give us your wrist, not a bracelet length. The ease is ours to add.
- 01Take a piece of string, a ribbon, or a strip of paper about a centimetre wide.
- 02Wrap it once around your wrist, just below the bone, where a watch sits. Snug, not tight. A finger should slide underneath.
- 03Mark where it meets itself. Lay it flat against a ruler and read the centimetres.
- 04That number is your size. Do not add anything for comfort. We allow for that when the cord is cut.
03For life
Lifetime Cord Warranty
Two materials, and only one of them wears out. We replace that one for as long as you own the piece.
The cord
A cord worn every day will soften, and eventually it will go. That is the material doing what it should, not a fault in it.
When it does, we replace it. There is no charge and no time limit.
The silver
The silver is yours. When a bracelet is re-strung, your own piece is set onto the new cord. We do not swap it for another.
What it costs
Nothing for the cord, and nothing for the work. Postage only, where postage applies.
Write to Laconicbracelets@gmail.com and we will arrange it.
04Questions
Frequently asked
The questions we are actually asked, answered without decoration.
01What am I wearing?
A marine-grade wax cord, chosen because it survives being worn every day, and one piece of solid 925 sterling silver set into it by hand.
02Can I shower in it?
Yes. Take it off for chlorine and salt water, and it will look the same in a year as it does now.
03Is the silver solid?
Solid, all the way through, and marked 925. Nothing here is plated, so nothing wears thin at the edges.
04Can it carry initials?
Some pieces can. Where there is a flat face, a graver cuts letters or numbers into it by hand.
05How long will it take to reach me?
It is made once you order it, so the wait depends on the piece and on where you are.
06How do I reach you?
