Description

Discover this substantial sterling silver ID bracelet by Wasabi, a unique piece designed for both men and women. Weighing a comfortable 13.8 grams, this bracelet features a hammered sterling silver plate with intriguing black-accented divots, adding to its artisanal appeal. The robust chain, secured by a durable lobster clasp, offers versatility in fit. While measuring 7 1/2 inches from end to end, it provides a comfortable fit for a 7-inch wrist, or it can be adjusted to a smaller size by attaching the clasp to an earlier link in the chain. The bracelet is clearly marked "925" on the clasp, indicating its sterling silver purity, and bears the distinctive "©WASABI" maker's mark on the reverse of the ID plate.

The ID bracelet has a rich history, evolving from military and medical alert purposes in the early 20th century to becoming a popular fashion statement. During World War I and II, soldiers wore ID bracelets with their vital information, and in the mid-20th century, they gained popularity as a form of personal expression, often engraved with names, dates, or meaningful messages. This particular piece by Wasabi embodies a modern, artistic interpretation of this classic design, blending a rugged aesthetic with sophisticated craftsmanship. Wasabi jewelry is known for its distinctive, often organic and textured designs, making this bracelet a true statement piece that blends contemporary style with a nod to traditional ID bracelet forms.
