Bracelet made from very high quality copper. Handmade in Chile.
Accounting for close to a third of global copper production, Chile is the largest producer of copper in the world.
In 2014, the country produced 5.75Mt of copper. Chile's state-controlled miner Corporación Nacional del Cobre (Codelco) is considered the world's largest copper and molybdenum producer, having produced a total 1.84Mt last year.
The atomic number for copper is 29, however in Chile, copper is number one. Being the country's major export, copper affects every facet of the Chilean economy. With a long history of mining copper, Chilean craftsmen traditionally have made copper art and jewelry for generations, hence the variety of high quality and affordable copper items, such as rings, wind chimes, necklaces, earrings, murals, coasters, statues, key rings, bracelets and even masks on offer. Prices start at about $2 and upwards, depending on the size and quality of the artwork.
