Ordering: Click on Shopping Information. Please contact us for information about more sizes, colors, and designs, and how to place an order for out-of-stock items. Certain colors and sizes might have to be custom ordered from Sweden. 

Maintenance: Taking off the bracelet before showering or swimming is recommended. However, getting it wet occasionally does not damage it. Polishing is normally not required but the pewter/silver can be polished with a dry silver polish cloth if desired. The bracelet can be washed with a mild detergent and water if dirty. The spun pewter wire will flatten down and take on a silver-like shiny patina if bracelet is worn often.

Materials: The stunning Sami Jewelry has been handmade of soft vegetable-tanned reindeer leather. A few of our colored bracelets are made of top grade lamb skin or calfskin. The button is handmade of shed reindeer antler. Swedish reindeer are domesticated and shed their antlers annually. The nickel-free pewter wire is an alloy with 4% silver, spun around a strong synthetic sinew thread and it has a spectacular sparkle in sunlight.

A few braid styles are made with enameled colored copper wires and leather cords mixed with spun pewter wires.

History: SwedArt’s aboriginal Sami artisans reside near the Arctic Circle in northern Sweden. Sami People with a 10,000 year old history live in Norway, Sweden, Finland, and the Kola Peninsula in Russia and lived on the land before the rest of the Scandinavians arrived. There are 17,000 Sami (formerly called Lapps, Laplanders, or Saami) in Sweden today. Approximately 3,000 own herds, sometimes with thousands of domesticated reindeer (caribou), and reindeer husbandry is their livelihood. Only Sami can own reindeer in Sweden so we support the small indigenous Sami People by buying products made of traditional Sami materials like reindeer leather and reindeer antler. Their unique craft items are admired and sought after worldwide.

Pewter and copper braids were added to the traditional Sami reindeer bracelets in the 1900s. However, Sami embroidery with pewter wire on reindeer leather and fabric has been done for hundreds of years in the Sami culture, and Sami actually invented the coiled pewter wire. In the old days, they melted tin to make the wire and then coiled it around reindeer sinew entirely by hand. Today, the wires are spun on a small machine operated by one person.
