A very cool Elephant hair bangle in the shape of a horseshoe!!! Bringing you double the luck!

The three strands of elephant hair are held together by 22ct rolled gold crimp connectors.

The bracelet closes with a matching solid 22ct gold hook!

Elephant hair jewellery became popular late in the 19th century.

It was bought as an exotic souvenir during the British Raj, when Western European adventurers started visiting India and would commission elephant hair jewellery as a souvenir of their safari experience.

The single strand of hair was taken from the elephants tail, and wrapped in gold.

Elephant hair jewellery is seen to prevent illness and harm, as well as bring love and luck.

This bracelet is extremely dainty when worn alone , and also looks fantastic as part of a wrist stack.
