What it is?

It is impossible to give a clear definition of a silicone bracelet, because this accessory at hand is used not only to create a spectacular bow, but also as an advertisement, a distinctive sign, a place for arranging contact information for people suffering from mental disorders.

The model is made of inexpensive material, namely from food-grade silicone. Raw materials are light and unpretentious, not afraid of water and sunlight. In addition, the material is very soft and plastic, it can not be removed even at night, without feeling discomfort.

However, there are also silicone bracelets with an inner steel plate, which ensures their rigidity.

Slap-bracelets - a design that looks like a ruler in expanded form, and in a collapsed form - forming a stylish bracelet of universal size. Such an accessory is rolled up with a light blow to the wrist.

Appearance history

Like a lot of fashionable things today, the first silicone jewelry was not made for catwalks and stylish couturier collections. Its history began in 2004, when Lanny Armstrong and Nike began distributing free of charge silicone accessories with the brand logo to all members of a charity event aimed at treating people with cancer. Bright, do-it-yourself bracelets were enjoyed by the public, quickly becoming a fashion accessory.

From that moment began the mass production of stylish details. Their surface was decorated with inscriptions and logos of brands, creating an unobtrusive but effective advertising campaign, because a huge number of people wanted to get an unusual bracelet.

Accessory in its development went even further. And with the help of its color, propagandists of ideologies found people close to themselves in spirit. So, environmentalists had green accessories, white was fighters against abortions, and red was for non-smokers.

Later, we forgot a little about ideologies, but young people did not even think about forgetting about fashionable experiments. Gradually, the inscriptions became brighter and more attractive, and the silicone models slowly but surely moved into the women's boxes on the dressing tables of the fashionistas. Thus began their simple, but such a diverse history of existence.

Can not be said about the speed of work with depressed or convex application. To obtain a relief inscription, experts go in two different ways.

There is no doubt about the beauty of such a product.

In addition to indentation, the image or the inscription can additionally be painted over with paints. Do it only by hand with maximum accuracy and accuracy.
