Celebrate spring with a martaki intimately tied to Greece - as you wear this and dream of spring, know that you are wearing a piece of the Greek island where it was created.
 
This kiln-fired terracotta bead has been finished with the sweetest light blue glaze, with the natural terracotta still visible underneath. Extra-long size for more impact. "Terracotta" is Italian for "baked earth" and refers to the ancient method of creating pottery for which the Greeks are so well-known.
 
Tie on your march bracelet on March 1st. When it falls off or you take it off, don't forget to make a wish! ✨
