The Trinity - Horsehair Bracelet
Three braids, woven side by side — two square, one round — because some stories can't be told in a single strand. One horse across all three. Three different horses, one per braid. A mix in each. However your herd fits together, this bracelet holds it.
Your horse's tail hair, built into something wide enough to actually feel on your wrist. Everyday width (10mm) for a slimmer everyday piece or Statement width (15mm) for the bold, wide look. Finished with a stainless steel magnetic clasp — strong enough for the horse life, easy enough for one hand.
This is the bracelet you don't take off.
A minimum of a pencil's thickness of tail hair per braid is required for this bracelet. All hair not used is returned, so you are welcome to send extra (even the whole tail) — that way I can choose the best strands to use.
Q: How do I collect and send my horsehair?
Full instructions are here: How It Works
Q: How do I find my ring size?
Verstara rings run true to size. For wide bands (8mm+), order a half size up from your usual ring size. If you don't know your size, any local jewelry store can size you with a 4mm band, or you can grab a reusable ring sizer from us. Once the hair is set, these rings aren't easy to resize — so it's worth getting this right upfront.
Q: How do I find my bracelet size?
Use a soft measuring tape or a piece of string around your wrist. Take that measurement and add ¾" to 1" — so a 6" wrist becomes a 6.75–7" bracelet. That's your finished length, hardware included. You can also just go with what feels right, or measure a bracelet you already love.
Q: How long does it take to receive my order?
Most horsehair pieces take 8 weeks. Everything is made to order — I don't keep blanks on hand. You'll get an email the moment your you check out and you can follow the process the entire way, and you're welcome to check in anytime.
Q: Can I have my piece made from more than one horse?
Yes — your whole herd can live in one piece. If you want the hair kept separate or arranged a certain way, just leave a note in the comments at checkout.
Q: What's the difference between the braid styles?
The fishtail is a flat braid. The round braid uses 4 plaits and has a tube shape. The square braid uses 8 plaits and has a box shape. The 5 strand braid uses 5 plaits and is flat.
The hair for most rings is woven, each strand is individually woven with other strands to create an incredibly strong and durable "ribbon"
Q: How do I care for my horsehair keepsake?
I wear mine every day, and I built these pieces to hold up to that. They can get wet — I'd just avoid swimming or showering in them. Treat it like your other fine jewelry, and it'll last a lifetime.
Q: What shipping company do you use?
Your finished piece will ship with either USPS, FedEx or UPS. Insurance to $100 is standard but additional insurance is available.
Q: Do you ship outside of the US?
Yes — worldwide. If you are shopping from outside of the US, please visit www.verstara.ca to place your order
