It is the color of the high plateau at noon, the color Layan says her grandmother wore every day \"so the sky would always be close to the wrist.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen Simon first visited the Lhasa workshop, he expected gold. Instead Layan handed him a single turquoise, warm from her palm, and said: \u003cem\u003e\"This is the only blue we trust.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Sky Stone carries that blue. A round natural turquoise, hand-set into a 316L titanium steel bezel and hung on a fine gold-toned chain. The steel is the point: unlike plated brass, titanium steel is nickel-free by its very composition — not by a coating that can wear thin. We retired our old ruby bracelet for exactly that reason. This one stays.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis is not jewelry.

Every Sky Stone bracelet is assembled during the first light of morning in the Lhasa workshop — a small ritual before the work of the day begins. Your purchase directly supports an apprenticeship at that workshop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eStyling Notes\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSolo\u003c\/strong\u003e: A single stone of sky against bare skin.

But the turquoise is a living stone: avoid prolonged soak, perfume directly on the stone, and household chemicals. The gold PVD coating can dull near chlorine. Wipe with the included soft cloth. The stone may slowly deepen in tone — that is the sky, aging with you.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Simon \u0026 Layan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55921243128100,"sku":"CF-SKY-013","price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1014\/9580\/0100\/files\/b073c7b1706b44c8904e34b1ceb9e267.jpeg_tplv-a9rns2rl98-ds_wm_1_5_marc_b_3_dk_RG91YmFvMDIxTk5BMDAxMjYwNzMxMk5O.png?v=1785468013","url":"https:\/\/simonandlayan.com\/products\/the-sky-stone","provider":"simon\u0026layan","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
