John Hardy Icon Bracelet, Sterling Silver, Swiss Blue Topaz, 3.6MM [BUS973181SBT]
John HardyA refined expression of John Hardy's signature craftsmanship, the John Hardy Icon Bracelet, Sterling Silver, Swiss Blue Topaz, 3.6MM brings the distinctive character of the Icon Collection together with the luminous colour of Swiss blue topaz. Artisan handcrafted in 100% reclaimed sterling silver, the bracelet features a hand-cut treated Swiss blue topaz gemstone suspended within a halo of hand-carved reclaimed sterling silver.
The gemstone station measures 20.3MM x 11.9MM and is framed by a contemporary bezel setting, allowing the vivid blue tone of the Swiss blue topaz to remain the visual focus. The bracelet is built on John Hardy's signature 3.6MM artisan weave and finished with a lobster clasp.
The Icon Collection was launched in the early 1990s and translates the centuries-old Balinese tradition of chain weaving into a distinctly modern form. John Hardy describes each chain as individually handwoven by a single artisan, then stretched, kneaded and polished to create a supple feel that follows the natural curve of the body. This painstaking process gives the bracelet its tactile character and distinctive handcrafted finish.
The use of reclaimed sterling silver reflects John Hardy's commitment to responsible jewellery practices. The brand states that its precious metals and gemstones are sourced in adherence to ethical social and environmental practices throughout the diamond and precious-metal jewellery supply chain. John Hardy is also a member of the Responsible Jewellery Council.
With its sculptural silver construction, rich blue gemstone and refined 3.6MM profile, the Icon Bracelet offers a sophisticated interpretation of John Hardy's heritage. The design can be worn as a distinctive standalone bracelet or incorporated into a curated collection of layered jewellery.

Design & Symbolism
The Icon Collection is one of John Hardy's foundational expressions of Balinese-inspired chain craftsmanship. Its designs distill the complex art of chain weaving into sculptural jewellery that combines tactile texture with contemporary proportions.
This edition introduces colour through a treated Swiss blue topaz gemstone. Hand-cut and bezel-set within a hand-carved reclaimed sterling silver station, the stone creates a vivid focal point against the organic texture of the silver. The result is a balanced composition of colour, craftsmanship and understated sophistication.
The bracelet's handwoven construction is central to the Icon aesthetic. John Hardy states that each chain is woven individually by a single artisan before being stretched, kneaded and polished, creating a supple form designed to follow the curve of the body.
