A Bracelet with a Story to Tell™
Alaskan Summer Solstice Bracelet Inspiration: Alaskans love summer solstice. We have daylight 24 hours a day in the north, and farther down south our light dims to twilight for a couple of hours before the sun pops back up above the horizon.
Alaskans celebrate with festivals, parties, the infamous Midnight Baseball Game in Fairbanks, and even the Slam’n Salm’n Derby at Ship Creek in Anchorage. There’s something for everyone!
Why does Alaska get so much daylight in summer? It’s pretty simple. Near June 21 the north pole is tilted 23.5 degrees toward the sun. Because Alaska is very near the earth’s northernmost axis, we are blessed with lots and lots of daylight in summertime.
Alaska is the place to be in the summertime. It’s when the whole state is awake 24/7 to soak all that daylight up!
About Alaskan Summer Solstice Bracelet: Our Alaskan Summer Solstice bracelet is made of orange recycled glass representing the sunshine with brass bead spacers to represent the sun’s rays.
This is a stretch bracelet to fit most wrists or ankles. Need a special size? We can customize it just for you.

Sizing Chart
Measure around your wrist with a flexible ruler or tape measure. Wrap the tape measure comfortably around your wrist with just a slight gap between the ruler and your wrist. This is the SMALLEST size bracelet you should comfortably wear. This will also be the approximate inside diameter of the bracelet you should order.
Our leather bracelets are a fixed size. This means, measuring your wrist correctly is very important. See the chart below for our sizes in inches and cm.
Bracelet measurements are approximate
SIZE | INCHES | CM | APPROX BONE STRUCTURE
X-Small | 6.0-6.5 | 15.25 - 16.5 | Extremely small framed adult or small child
Small | 6.5-7.0 | 16.5 - 18.0 | Average pre-teen or small framed adult
Regular | 7.0-7.5 | 18.0 - 19.0 | This is our standard size. Fits average adult
Large | 7.5-8.0 | 19.0 - 20.5 | Big boned adult
X-Large | 8.0-8.5 | 20.5 - 21.5 | Extremely big boned adult. Please verity measurement
Custom | We can make any of our bracelets to your custom size. Just ask - we are here to help.
Our unique slide-knot adjustable bracelets open up and then close back to a size that you adjust using the slide-knot and pulling the ends of the bracelet. Unless you have an extremely small or extremely large hand, our Regular sized bracelet will work just fine. If you need a custom size, please not only measure your wrist, but the widest part of your hand as well. These measurements will help us to create a perfect fit just for you.
For our stretch bracelets (also known as slip-ons), you want the bracelet to be large enough to go over your hand and then snug back to be comfortable on your wrist. Again, our Regular size is generally sufficient. Custom sizes can be made - just reach out to us. Of note, for the longevity of your stretch bracelet, we recommend 'rolling' your bracelet over your hand onto your wrist instead of 'pulling' the bracelet over your hand. 'Pulling' will cause the bracelet to over-stretch and possibly break.
