Important Safety Notice for Women's Bracelets in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2023/988 on General Product Safety (GPSR)

This is a targeted safety notice for the correct and safe use of women's bracelets (metal, beaded, textile/cord, leather, elastic, chain, with pendants and magnetic or screw clasps). Due to small parts, magnets, elastic elements, possible sharp edges, and skin contact, please follow the instructions below.

Basic Safety and Handling Principles

• Keep out of reach of children: Small parts (beads, rings, pendants, magnets) pose a choking hazard; the product is not a toy.
• Check before wearing: Inspect the clasp, loops, rings, elastic/cord, and sharp edges of pendants; do not use a damaged bracelet.
• Risk of catching: Do not wear dangling pendants and chains during sports, machine work, or sleep; there is a risk of catching and injury.
• Magnetic clasps: Keep away from payment cards and sensitive electronics; persons with pacemakers/ICDs must maintain a safe distance.

Proper and Safe Use

• Correct size: The bracelet should fit comfortably – it must not press excessively or slip off the wrist; choose a snugger model without pendants for active use.
• Layering: When wearing multiple bracelets, minimize friction and tangling; avoid combining with clothing that has mesh/hooks.
• Contact with water and chemicals: Remove the bracelet before showering, swimming, sauna, and applying cosmetics/perfumes; salt water, chlorine, and sweat accelerate wear.
• Activities: For exercise, manual work, and sports, choose non-metal, soft bracelets or do not wear one.

Cleaning, Maintenance, and Storage

• Cleaning by material: Wipe metal with a soft damp cloth and dry; polish silver with a soft cloth; clean leather dry and treat with appropriate products; wash textile/silicone with mild soap and water.
• Part maintenance: Regularly check and replace worn elastics, loose rings, and clasps; have loose stones professionally tightened.
• Storage: Store separately in a case or pouch, dry and away from direct sunlight; keep magnetic bracelets away from sensitive items.

Specific Health Warnings

• Allergies and sensitive skin: Some metals (e.g., nickel), dyes, adhesives, and leather may cause reactions; if redness, itching, or swelling occurs, remove the bracelet and consult a doctor if necessary.
• Skin hygiene: After heavy sweating, clean and dry both skin and bracelet to prevent irritation.

Disposal

• Safe disposal: Hand over metal parts for metal recycling; sort leather, textile, and plastic components according to local regulations. Wrap small parts to prevent risk to children and animals.

Incidents and Contact

• In case of an incident (strangulation, allergic reaction, injury from catching or cutting), stop using the product immediately. Keep the product and proof of purchase for complaint processing.
