A tape measure wrapped around a wrist

How to measure your wrist

Wrap a tape measure or a piece of string around your wrist, just below the bone, then read the measurement in centimetres.

Delivered ready to give
Natural kraft box tied with string

Every bracelet ships in a natural kraft box tied with string, with no plastic.

Best for

  • Five initials held by a single drawing: easier to read than a row of letters, and quicker to take in at a glance.
  • The tree speaks to every generation without anyone having to write the word “family”.
  • The fan recomposes itself for each number of initials: with two as with five, the tree stays balanced and never lopsided.

Good to know before ordering

  • Five initials at most, one letter per branch: full first names will not fit.
  • With a single initial the branch is vertical and the tree looks like a stem. Worth knowing before ordering.

Wearing and care

Letters are engraved left to right in the order you type them, spread across the fan: the first takes the leftmost branch. The order of the births is the one that reads most naturally.

For a grandparent whose family is still growing, it is better to order once the children are all there: the bracelet cannot be re-engraved, and a branch cannot be added to a bead already burnt.

Frequently asked questions
What occasion is this bracelet given for?

For Mother’s or Father’s Day, a grandparent’s birthday, a family Christmas. It is the gift several children or grandchildren give together, each one bringing a letter.

How many initials can the tree carry?

From one to five, one letter per branch. Beyond that the circles would touch on a fifteen-millimetre bead and the letters would stop being legible once burnt by the laser.

What does the tree look like with a single initial?

The one branch is vertical, in line with the trunk, and the whole reads as a young stem carrying a letter. That is deliberate: it lets the same model be given for a first child.

Can a branch be added later, at the next birth?

No, the bead is engraved once and wood cannot be re-worked. The usual practice is to order a new one with the full set of siblings: the first keeps its value as a keepsake, with the initials it carries.

How do I choose my size?

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.

Is the bracelet water-resistant?

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.

How do I care for the wood?

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.

How long does it take to make and ship?

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.

Does it arrive ready to give?

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.

Is it suitable for men and women?

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.

Can I give it without knowing their wrist size?

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.

How far ahead should I order for a specific date?

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.

Full description

One branch per initial

A trunk, two roots, and as many branches as initials — from one to five. Each letter sits in a small circle at the end of its branch, and the fan always opens the same way: with five as with two, the tree stays symmetrical.

With a single initial the branch is vertical and the tree becomes a stem. That is deliberate: the same bracelet suits a first child, and can be ordered again later with the others.

It speaks to grandparents as much as to parents. Cherry wood, double marine cord, handmade in the Aveyron, France.
