Elephant Hair Bracelets: The Legend
Dating back more than 1200 years, it is said that the elephant hair bracelet brings protection illness and harm, as well as good fortune to its wearer. Bracelets with 2 knots represent the earth (fertility & ancestors), and nature (forces & spirits). Adjusting the knots not only changes the fit, but also is said to help humans tune into these powerful forces.
When a person is the recipient of a gifted elephant hair bracelet, it is worn traditionally on the left. Only the bravest tribal hunters, who slew the elephant and made the bracelet, would have earned the honor of wearing it on their right.
In modern day, our elephant hair is ethically collected from naturally shed hairs of African elephants, which are typically found at the base of trees where elephants rub to scratch themselves. The hairs can be up to 3 feet in length. These bracelets are worn as a sign of respect towards both the elephant and the earth.
A few famous people have donned the highly prized elephant hair bracelet, including Amelia Earhart, Adam Gilchrist, George Clooney, the late Senator John McCain, & Prince William.
Care Instructions:
Sweat with it. Shower with it. Swim with it. Adjust the fit before it gets wet.
(Freshwater & saltwater ok, but preferably not chlorine.)
*Do not apply hair conditioner. It will reduce the knots' ability to slide & adjust to your wrist.
