Handcrafted in Accra by artisan Kamal, this adjustable copper bangle is a fusion of artistry and meaning. Its open design is crowned with a single rose quartz stone, often called the stone of love.

For centuries, rose quartz has been cherished as a crystal of compassion, harmony, and emotional healing. It’s believed to nurture self-love, attract meaningful connections, and restore balance to the heart.

The bangle itself is made from pure copper—valued not only for its warm glow and durability but also for its natural grounding and healing properties. Over time, the copper develops a unique patina, making each piece distinctly personal. Adjustable and versatile, it can be gently fitted to any wrist.

Note: As each rose quartz crystal is naturally unique, the shape and subtle details of your bangle may slightly differ from the photo—adding to the individuality of every piece.

A timeless accessory with soulful depth, this bangle is more than jewelry—it’s a wearable reminder of love, healing, and connection.

Wash at 30° / hand wash, iron on low heat.

Origin & history: Fugu (also called batakari for the sewn smock garment) refers to strip-woven cloth from Northern Ghana (notably among Dagomba, Mamprusi, Gonja, and other groups). Traditions recount influence from the Mossi/Moshie of Ouagadougou. Historically, smocks carried social and protective associations and, in some accounts, were worn in warfare or ritual contexts.

Technique & look: plain/warp-faced strip weaving on double-heddle narrow looms; sturdy cotton (sometimes with indigo) produces hard-wearing strips that are stitched and later tailored into the iconic smock silhouette. Patterns range from minimalist stripe layouts to richly banded indigo/undyed schemes. 

How we source: we source fugu from the Upper West Region of Ghana and have worked with the same trusted weaver since 2018, ensuring continuity and quality.

All our fabrics are treated to resist dye and stay true to their colours for years. 

Threaded Tribes is plastic free and committed to a full re-use of scraps.
