Instead of the single row of a tennis bracelet you get \u003cstrong\u003ean unbroken field of sparkle\u003c\/strong\u003e around your wrist, with stones catching the light at different heights. The silver-tone finish is applied in five layers of PVD.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBase material: copper alloy, nickel-free\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFinish: silver-tone, 5x PVD\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStones: VVS CZ (simulated diamond)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWidth: 7mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSizes: 17 and 20 cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClasp: lobster clasp\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDelivered in a Carpe Ice jewellery box\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy a Copper Alloy and Not Stainless Steel\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA honeycomb pattern is made of dozens of small settings that have to meet each other precisely. \u003cstrong\u003eCopper can be worked more finely than stainless steel\u003c\/strong\u003e, so those cells sit tightly together and almost no metal stays visible between the stones. That is why virtually every serious iced out piece is built on a copper base. Copper is also denser than hollow steel, which gives the bracelet that solid feel in the hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e17 or 20 cm\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese two sizes are 3 cm apart, so measuring pays off more than guessing. Measure your wrist just below the wrist bone and add about 1.5 cm: below 16 cm take 17 cm, above that 20 cm. \u003cstrong\u003eThe 17 cm is worth pointing out\u003c\/strong\u003e, because most iced out bracelets start at 18, which leaves a narrower wrist permanently too loose. If you fall between the two, take the 20 and expect a loose fit; a set bracelet worn tight presses the settings against your skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFive Layers of PVD, and Why That Counts on a Wrist\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe silver colour is applied with PVD, physical vapour deposition: the material is bonded at molecular level inside a vacuum chamber rather than laid on galvanically, at Carpe Ice in five layers. That makes the finish \u003cstrong\u003econsiderably harder and more scratch-resistant than an ordinary coating\u003c\/strong\u003e, which matters on a wrist precisely because it rubs along sleeves and table edges all day. On a cool silver tone a worn spot would also show immediately as a warmer undertone. The alloy underneath is nickel-free.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBroad Enough to Be Noticed\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 7mm the bracelet clearly takes its place without dominating the wrist. The hexagonal cells do not all sit at the same height, so a different part lights up with every movement and the bracelet never looks flat. That geometric character makes it more modern than the classic continuous row of a tennis bracelet, and that is the argument for choosing this one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKeeping It Sparkling\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA copper alloy is more sensitive to moisture than steel, so this is a piece for going out rather than for the gym. \u003cstrong\u003eTake the bracelet off before showering, swimming and training\u003c\/strong\u003e, apply fragrance and hand cream before you put it on, and store it dry in the box it came in. Dust gathers between the cells faster than on a flat setting; lift it out with a dry, soft toothbrush.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAlone or as a Set\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn its own the honeycomb bracelet is emphatic enough to be worn by itself. With the honeycomb chain in the same width and finish you get a set that clearly belongs together. If you wear it beside a watch, leave a few centimetres between them: a steel case is harder than the finish and will otherwise tap it dull.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Carpe Ice","offers":[{"title":"17 CM","offer_id":54488384602456,"sku":null,"price":74.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"20 CM","offer_id":54488384667992,"sku":null,"price":74.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0865\/3904\/3160\/files\/Honeycomb-Armband-Iced-Out-7MM-Carpe-Ice.jpg?v=1785765084","url":"https:\/\/carpeice.com\/en\/products\/honeycomb-bracelet-iced-out-silver-tone-7mm","provider":"Carpeice","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
