- Two pieces, a bracelet and a matching ring, made and finished together the same morning
- The lattice engraved diamond by diamond across the full band, the floral traced alongside it by hand
- Solid 99.9% pure copper in both pieces — no plating on either one to wear thin
- No nickel in either piece, and both are open-backed, so they go on one-handed
You stopped buying matching sets years ago, and for a good reason
The bracelet outlasted the ring. It nearly always does. The ring is the piece that goes in the washing-up water, under the hand cream, in and out of gardening gloves — and on a plated set it is the ring that goes patchy first, while the bracelet still looks fine. Within a season you've a pair that no longer look related.
Shale is two pieces of the same solid metal, engraved by the same hand on the same morning. They wear at the same rate because they are the same thing. And there is no nickel in either of them — which for a lot of women is the whole reason a set like this can be worn at all.
- Nothing to go patchy: no plating on the ring or the bracelet to rub away
- Nothing that stops matching: both pieces age together, into the same warm tone
- Nothing to react to: no nickel, the commonest jewellery allergen there is
Bracelet and ring together, one size, both open-backed and adjustable. £25.99 for the pair at the moment, down from £51.98.
Why the obvious ways of getting a matching set don't work
BOXED SET
The gift-boxed costume set
Three or four pieces in a padded box, all plated, all sized for someone else's wrist. The ring is usually a fixed size that fits nobody in the house, and the bracelet has a chain fastening you can't do up alone. Most of it never leaves the box.
BOUGHT APART
Buying the bracelet now and the ring later
By the time you get round to the ring, the bracelet has already taken on its own colour — and the new piece sits beside it looking brand new and slightly wrong. Pieces that started together stay together; pieces that didn't never quite catch up.
PRINTED ON
The stamped or printed pattern
A pattern rolled on by machine sits on the surface and flattens out with wear, because there is almost no depth to it. Engraving cuts into the metal, so the lattice is still there to catch the light long after a printed one has gone smooth.

Buy more than one and the price comes down again
This is a live discount on the shop, not a code to remember. It is taken off automatically at the checkout, and it comes off on top of the half-price sale that is already running. The set counts as one piece towards it.
2 pieces — 10% off
A set for you and something for a sister or a friend, and ten per cent comes off the whole basket by itself.
3 pieces — 15% off
Three brings it to fifteen per cent. They needn't match — mix sets, cuffs, earrings, whatever you like.
4 pieces — 20% off
Four or more takes twenty per cent off the basket, on top of the sale price. Nothing to type in, nothing to claim later.
How the two pieces are made
The lattice, diamond by diamond
Each diamond in the lattice is cut separately across the full length of the band. Done by hand, which is why no two bracelets have quite the same rhythm to them when you look closely.
The floral traced alongside
The ring's pattern is traced rather than stamped, following the curve of the band so it doesn't break where the metal turns. Both pieces were finished the same morning.
99.9% pure copper, no nickel
One metal through both pieces — no plating, no base metal underneath, and no nickel, which is the most common jewellery contact allergen. Copper is also naturally antimicrobial as a metal; that is a property of the material and not a claim about what it does for you.

Common questions
Will it turn my skin green?
It can, on some people, and we'd rather tell you than have you find out. It is the copper reacting with the natural acids on your skin — harmless, a mark rather than a rash, and it washes off with soap in a few seconds. A ring shows it more than a bracelet simply because a finger is warmer and more enclosed. If you'd rather not have it at all, paint a thin coat of clear lacquer inside the band and it cuts it right down.
Is it definitely two pieces?
Yes — you get both. The lattice-engraved bracelet and the floral ring arrive together for £25.99, which is half the usual £51.98 for the pair.
How does the ring fit? I don't know my size.
You don't need to. The ring is open at the back like the bracelet, so you ease it onto the finger and press the ends gently until it sits comfortably. If it's a shade tight on a warm day, open it a fraction. One size genuinely does fit most fingers here.
Is there any nickel in either piece?
No. Both are 99.9% pure copper with nothing plated over the top. If nickel is what has spoiled most jewellery for you, that is the reason this set is worth a try.
How do I keep the engraving looking sharp?
Leave it alone mostly. As copper darkens, the patina settles into the cut lines and makes the lattice stand out more, not less. When you want the whole thing bright again, a little lemon juice and salt on a soft cloth, then a rinse and a dry, does it in a minute. An old toothbrush gets into the engraving.
Can I return it if it's not right?
Yes — 30 days, and UK delivery is free both ways of the decision. Send the set back if it isn't what you hoped for and we'll refund it.

Pauline R., 69
"I've had sets before where the ring gave up long before the bracelet. These two have gone the same colour together, which is what I wanted. The lattice is lovely close up."

Carol A., 58
"I was fully expecting to have to send the ring back over the size. I didn't — you just squeeze it. Wore both to my niece's wedding and had two people ask."
