For a wedding anniversary or the anniversary of the day you met, a first year together, a birth. It is also the gift for a wooden wedding anniversary, five years of marriage, traditionally marked with something wooden: here the wood carries the wedding date.

On a second line, below the initials, at about two thirds of their height. The slashes, dots and dashes you enter are replaced by middle dots: “09/12/25” becomes “09 · 12 · 25” on the bead.

Both. A year on its own — 2025 — is engraved very legibly. A full date with a four-figure year also fits, engraved slightly smaller as it takes more room on the same line.

A heart, a chain, a slash or a dot, as you prefer. The heart for a couple, the chain for a bond that lasts, the slash for a date-like reading, the dot for the plainest version.

Yes, it is the use it suits best. Tradition calls for something wooden at five years of marriage: the bead is solid cherry wood, and the wedding date is engraved on it along with the couple’s initials.

Yes. The two initials can be the child’s and the parent’s, or the two letters of a first name and surname, with the date of birth below. It is a common new-baby gift, often with the dot as separator.

Measure your wrist with a soft tape or a piece of string, just below the bone. Size 1 covers 15 to 18 cm, size 2 covers 18 to 21 cm, size 3 covers 21 to 24 cm; two children’s sizes, 11 to 16 cm, are available on some models. Each bracelet is then adjusted by pulling on the cords: the size gives a comfort range, not a fixed measurement.

The braided marine cord handles water without trouble. Cherry wood is a living material: avoid long baths, swimming pools and saunas, and dry it if it gets caught in the rain. It develops a patina over time, which is normal.

A drop of jojoba oil, or any neutral vegetable oil, on a soft cloth whenever the wood looks dry or dull: it feeds the wood and revives its colour. Nothing else is needed.

Every bracelet is engraved to order in our workshop in Aveyron, France, then shipped within 48 h, to your door or to a pickup point. Shipping costs are calculated at checkout.

Yes. It ships in a natural kraft box tied with string, with no plastic: it can be given as it is, with no extra wrapping.

Yes, it is unisex. Sizes 1 to 3 cover wrists from 15 to 24 cm, and two children’s sizes, 11 to 16 cm, are available on some models.

Yes. Each bracelet adjusts along the whole range of its size thanks to the sliding knots, and size 2 (18 to 21 cm) fits most adult wrists. If in doubt, quietly measure a watch or a bracelet they already wear.

Allow 48 h for engraving, then two to three days in transit and two days more for the crossing from France. For a fixed date — a birthday, Valentine’s Day, Father’s Day, Christmas — order ten days ahead to be safe.
