Why copper works
Kills bacteria on contact
Changes the water it touches
A mineral your body needs
Long used for skin and recovery
A piece of jewellery that moves with you
Unlike a closed ring, the open bangle simply slides around your wrist. You quickly forget you're wearing it, even though you can still feel the twisted texture.
Twisted cable texture
The twisted wires give the bangle a finely braided pattern, as if the cable had been twisted around itself. Up close, you can see exactly how that rhythm forms.
What you actually get
Wearing a copper bracelet is not a new idea. The practice runs from Egyptian and Greek sources through Ayurveda to the modern Western market, and it was also studied seriously a few times in the twentieth century. What those studies did and did not show is set out in the copper bracelet, a centuries-old tradition.
There are four finishes. Twisted has a classic cable structure of strands wound into each other. Smooth is a single, even band with no relief. Hammered is worked by hand and catches the light in small facets. Round is a plain round bar with no texture. The copper is the same in all four; the choice is about how visibly you want to wear it.
The bracelet is open and adjustable, with a circumference of about 17.5 centimetres. You bend it slightly wider or narrower with two hands so it stays on the wrist without pinching. Do that gently and no more often than you need to: copper is malleable, but bending it back and forth repeatedly weakens the metal.
What to watch out for
Take the bracelet off when you shower, swim and exercise. Soap, chlorine and sweat speed up the darkening, and that is the one thing that makes wearing it unpleasant over time.
On many wearers, copper leaves a faint green tint on the skin. That is a reaction between copper, sweat and skin oils, and it washes off with water. What it does and does not mean is explained in why is my copper turning green or black.
We make no health claims about wearing copper on the skin. What may officially be said about copper in the EU, and what that rests on, is set out in the eight official EU claims.
What makes this special
Solid copper against the skin
Nickel-free and uncoated, so the metal can react directly with air, moisture and skin contact.
Four characters, one material
Twisted, smooth, hammered or round: the same copper quality, each with a different texture and look.
A long tradition of wear
In the oldest clinical study (Walker and Keats, 1976), copper bracelets released an average of 13 milligrams of copper per month through the skin.
Open, adjustable cuff
You slide the bracelet over your wrist instead of clasping it shut. Bend the ends carefully and as little as possible when adjusting it.
A colour change that comes with pure copper
Solid copper changes colour a little on its own as you wear the bracelet. That's completely normal, and even a sign of pure copper. If you prefer the shine, simply polish the bracelet with lemon and salt. Exactly how is in the care guide.
Composition
0,00%
copper
99.21% copper, measured independently
The material is analysed by RTC Laboratory in Moradabad, a NABL-accredited lab, tested to ASTM-1621 and IS-228. The measurement came out at 99.21% copper and 0.75% zinc. That zinc is not an additive but a residue of the casting process: it makes the copper marginally stronger and changes nothing else. Food safety is covered by a second report, from URS Products and Testing, tested against EC 1935/2004, EU 10/2011 and REACH.

One bangle, four characters
Solid, uncoated copper, shaped as an open bangle and available in four distinctive finishes.
The bangle is made from copper you see and feel directly, with no lacquer sealing the material off.
The two ends complete the classic open bangle shape.
From striking texture to a calm profile: each style gives the same material a different character.
The bangle arrives carefully packaged in a Kopero jewellery box with a soft storage pouch.

Around your wrist in six steps
From adjusting the size to wearing it every day. The bracelet is an open cuff: you slide it around your wrist instead of clasping it shut.
-
1
Polish it once before you start
That way you begin with a clean, even shine and watch the patina form from the start.
-
2
Adjust the size
Hold the bracelet with both hands and slowly bend the ends slightly further apart or closer together. Do this as little as possible: copper only tolerates a limited number of bends.
-
3
Slide it over your wrist
Turn the opening towards the inside of your wrist, slide the bracelet over and turn it back. It should stay in place without pinching.
-
4
Take it off for water and soap
Swimming, showering, exercise and cleaning: take the bracelet off for those. Chlorine, soap and sweat speed up tarnishing.
-
5
A green film on your skin
Copper reacts with moisture and salts in sweat to form a thin, greenish layer. It's harmless and washes off again with water and a cloth.
-
6
Polish it or leave it be
If you want shine, polish with lemon and salt and dry right away. If you want to keep the dark patina, do nothing. Store the bracelet in the velvet pouch.

Frequently asked questions about this product
How do I adjust the size of the bracelet?
Hold the bracelet with both hands and slowly bend the open ends slightly further apart or closer together, until it sits comfortably on your wrist without pinching. Do this as little as possible: copper only tolerates a limited number of bends, so adjust the size in small steps rather than one big correction.
Does the bracelet contain nickel, and can I wear it with a metal allergy?
The bracelet is nickel-free and made from solid, uncoated copper. If you have a known copper allergy, Wilson's disease, or broken skin, don't wear the bracelet. If you're unsure, talk to a doctor before wearing it for extended periods.
What's the difference between the four finishes?
Twisted has a classic, twisted cable structure with a finely braided pattern. Smooth puts the focus on an understated, unadorned surface and the warm copper colour. Hammered is hand-worked into a pronounced, handcrafted rhythm of facets. Round is the most understated finish: a thinner, round copper wire with a thick, ball-shaped knot at each end instead of a wide band. Material and quality are the same across all four.
Do I need to take the bracelet off to shower, swim or exercise?
Yes, take it off briefly for those. Chlorine, soap and sweat speed up discolouration on solid copper. Outside of those moments, you can just keep wearing the bracelet.
I see discolouration on my skin under the bracelet, is that harmful?
No, it's harmless. Copper reacts with moisture and salts in sweat to form a thin, greenish layer, which washes off with water and a cloth. It's a normal and temporary effect of wearing solid copper against the skin, and actually a sign of pure copper. If you want the bracelet shiny again, polish it with lemon and salt: how to do that is in the care guide.
Can the bracelet break if I adjust it often?
Repeatedly bending it wide open and closed can eventually cause metal fatigue and ultimately breakage, as with any piece of metal that's bent often. So adjust the size calmly and in small steps at the start, and avoid re-adjusting it again and again after that.
Not what you were after? No problem.
You have a 30-day right of return. Copper does take some getting used to: it tarnishes, it feels heavier in the hand than stainless steel, and now and then you will want to polish it. Give it a few weeks. If it is still not what you were after, send it back and get your money back.
