The Stories Behind Our Flag Bracelets: A World of Culture in Crystal
A Limited-Edition Collection That Speaks Volumes
At Karen Curtis, each piece of jewelry tells a story—and our handcrafted flag bracelets are no exception. Inspired by global culture, personal heritage, and meaningful moments, these limited-edition designs are more than just accessories; they are wearable tributes to identity, connection, and pride.
Made with approximately 600 Swarovski crystals in bold, vibrant flag patterns and finished with sterling silver magnetic clasps, these bracelets are a rare find in today's world of fast fashion. Due to recent changes in Swarovski's distribution, these may be among the last of their kind. That makes them not just beautiful, but collectible.
