Red Light Therapy Wrap

Almost certainly because what you wore before wasn't solid copper.

The vast majority of copper jewelry sold online is copper-plated, a thin coating over a base metal, which means almost no real copper contact with your skin.

Every piece we make is 100% pure copper all the way through. No plating, no base metal, no coating. The difference between solid copper and plated copper against skin is significant, and most people notice it.

The other factor is consistency, copper works through daily wear over time, not occasional use. Wear it every day for a month before you decide.

If you're not completely satisfied with your purchase, you can return it within 14 for a full refund. Please ensure the item is unused and in its original packaging.

We've been asked this for years. Here's what we know: Copper is an essential mineral the human body genuinely needs, and wearing it against the skin is a practice that predates modern medicine by thousands of years. We've never made promises to anyone. What we can tell you is that people who came to us at 55, 60, 65 keep coming back, year after year, decade after decade, without us ever having to explain why. Whether you call that placebo or not, the people wearing our copper noticed something they want to keep noticing. That's all we've ever needed to know.

Formal clinical studies have produced mixed results, and we won't pretend otherwise.

What we will say is this: copper has been worn against human skin for over 3,000 years across virtually every civilization on earth. Roman soldiers. Ayurvedic healers. Native American craftspeople. Generations of women who passed it down to their daughters, who passed it down to theirs.

They weren't running double-blind trials. They were wearing what their grandmothers wore.

Our customers aren't scientists either — they're just people who tried everything else first.

Yes, you can.

Pure copper is naturally resilient, it has been worn by fishermen, farmers, and laborers through every kind of weather and water for centuries.

That said, a few things worth knowing:

• Saltwater and chlorine will accelerate the patina process, your piece will darken and age faster than it would with dry wear
• This is not damage. It is simply the copper responding to its environment, the way real metal does
• Prolonged or repeated exposure to chlorine pools may affect the surface finish over time

If you prefer to keep the original shine, rinse the piece with fresh water after swimming and pat dry. Otherwise wear it freely. It's made to be lived in, not stored.

Copper is a base metal, yes. What you're paying for is 40 years of handcraft, 100% pure material, and the fact that this is a collection made with care. We turned down companies who wanted to mass-produce our designs because we refused to put our name on something we didn't make with our own hands. Every piece in this store was shaped and finished by hand. When these are gone, there won't be more. You can buy a copper-plated bracelet for a few dollars anywhere. This is something else.
