These vintage East African real copper bracelets are made of copper wire very tightly wound around a center cord. Having been worn for a long time, the copper is tarnished and dark. We have left these in their original condition in honor of their authenticity. They can easily be returned to their original shine with simple copper cleaner, as in one of the photos in this post. These vary a lot in size: the smaller ones make great bracelets; the larger ones anklets. Available with or without glass bead accents.
