"Dzi" wool bracelet, handwoven in Tibet · CHARU × Tsoten

A distinctive, tightly woven wool bracelet in black and off-white, featuring a meander pattern framed by narrow red and green borders. The motif is inspired by Tibetan horse saddle blankets, on which the meander is one of the traditional symbols of good luck. The bracelet is woven using a technique passed down by nomads for generations and traditionally used to make belts, ropes, saddle blankets, and shepherds’ slings—even experienced weavers need at least eight hours to complete each bracelet. It fastens with a Dzi-style bead threaded through a loop at the end of the band; the open ends taper into short fringes.

The ribbons are made in a weavers' cooperative in the village of Tsoten in the Tibetan highlands. Since 2019, CHARU has been working there with former herders to preserve weaving as a source of livelihood. Many members of the cooperative are elderly.

CHARU connects designers with artisan cooperatives in the Tibetan cultural region and uses these collaborations to develop products that bring traditional techniques into everyday life.

Brief instructions for measuring wrist size:
Loosely wrap a measuring tape or string around your wrist where you want the bracelet to sit. Make sure that it fits snugly but does not cut in. Read the circumference directly from the measuring tape or measure the length of the cord with a ruler.

Note:
The length of the bracelet may be 1 cm to 3 cm longer than the measured wrist circumference, depending on your taste.

Brief instructions for measuring ring size:

Method 1: Measure the inner diameter of a suitable ring
  • Take a ring that fits well.
  • Place it on a ruler and measure the inside diameter (from one inner edge to the other).
  • Compare the diameter with the table to determine the ring size.
Method 2: Measure the circumference of your finger
  • Take a thin strip of paper or thread.
  • Wrap it around the part of the finger where you want the ring to sit (not too tight).
  • Mark the point where the ends meet.
  • Measure the length of the strip in millimeters. This is the inner circumference.
  • Find the right size in the table.
Tips:
  • Measure the finger size in the evening, as fingers swell slightly during the day.
  • If you are between two sizes, choose the larger size.
  • Make sure that the ring fits over the knuckle.
