This exceptional bracelet is a combination of 10 almost identical individual bangles, each one of incredibly fine quality. The foundation of each component bracelet is very thin black plastic thread, acting as the weft - wound tightly around a bamboo base. Fulani women artisans in the most rural areas of Mali create, completely by hand, the extraordinarily detailed patterns of each bracelet by intricately weaving a design with a contrasting color - yellow in this case - as the warp. This quality is rare; the level of detail and beauty of each bracelet is stunning. We are unable to achieve by our photography an accurate representation of the fineness of the detail of these amazing very thin bracelets.

Each one of these wide bracelets can easily be taken apart so you can opt to wear any configuration of the component individual bracelets by themselves, but you will have a hard time putting it back together again.

The size of these ranges from 2 1/4 to 2 1/2" (5.7 to 6.3 cm) in internal diameter x 1 1/8 to 1 3/8" width (2.9 to 3.5 cm). The component bracelets measure from 1/16 to 1/8" (1.6 to 3 mm) in width.
