{"product_id":"lengua-bracelet","title":"Lengua Bracelet in Sterling Silver","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Lengua Bracelet is a sculptural .925 sterling silver link bracelet, made by hand in our workshop in Taxco, Guerrero, Mexico.\u003c\/strong\u003e It's the larger of our two Lengua bracelets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt belongs to our Lengua Collection, inspired by the universal language of communication. The links reinterpret the tongue — a symbol we found throughout pre-Hispanic codices, where it stands for speech, knowledge and human connection. We reduced it to its essential form, so each element falls into a rhythm that wraps naturally around the wrist.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOur silversmiths build it using \u003cem\u003ecartoneado\u003c\/em\u003e, a technique Taxco has practiced for generations: sheets of .925 sterling are die-stamped, then soldered one by one into a hollow form. It's why 64 grams of silver sits comfortably rather than weighing on you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e10% of the proceeds from this piece go to the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.southernsmoke.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eSouthern Smoke Foundation\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e, a nonprofit that provides emergency funding to food and beverage workers nationwide through its Behind You program.

Polish it with a silver cloth to bring back the shine, or leave it darker — we like it both ways. Take it off before swimming and store it dry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eQuestions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the piece solid or hollow?\u003c\/strong\u003e Hollow. We build it with cartoneado, a traditional Taxco technique: sheets of .925 sterling silver are die-stamped and hand-soldered into a hollow form. The silver is .925 throughout — the hollow construction is what makes a bracelet this substantial wearable all day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's the difference between this and the Lenguita?\u003c\/strong\u003e Scale. The Lengua has fewer, larger links; the Lenguita has more, smaller ones and sits closer to the wrist. Same language, different volume.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I choose a size?\u003c\/strong\u003e Measure your wrist and add about half an inch so it moves comfortably.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does it close?\u003c\/strong\u003e With a box clasp — the tongue slides in and locks with an audible click. More secure than a hook, and it sits flush so nothing catches on a sleeve.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"carolina spratling","offers":[{"title":"Small 6 inch","offer_id":42959076884576,"sku":"LEN-B-00","price":750.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Med 7 inch","offer_id":42959076917344,"sku":"LEN-B-00","price":750.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Large 8 inch","offer_id":42959076950112,"sku":"LEN-B-00","price":750.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0667\/8947\/4400\/files\/LENGUA_COLLECTION___TAXCO__SILVER.jpg?v=1784001842","url":"https:\/\/carolinasstudio.com\/products\/lengua-bracelet","provider":"Carolina S Studio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
