Hera Mother of Pearl Sleek Bangle

The Hera is a sleek titanium steel bangle with a natural mother of pearl inlay at its centre. The shell glows softly and shifts in tone as the light changes. The steel frame keeps the design clean and minimal. It measures 60mm across the inside, is 5mm wide, and weighs a light 6.8g.

A quiet glow

Mother of pearl is the iridescent inner layer of a shell, and no two pieces look exactly alike. On the Hera, a smooth panel of it becomes the focal point, framed by polished steel. The effect is understated but alive. The inlay catches soft colour as you move, so the bangle never looks flat.

Minimal and versatile

The streamlined shape works with almost anything. Wear it alone with a shirt cuff, stack it beside a watch, or pair it with fine chain bracelets. Its clean lines suit any style, and the soft glow of the mother of pearl adds warmth without being loud.

How it fits

The Hera has a 60mm inner diameter and slips over the hand onto the wrist. That suits small to medium hands best. Before ordering, measure around your hand at its widest point, with your thumb tucked in. If it measures more than about 19cm, the bangle may not pass over your knuckles.

Caring for mother of pearl

Titanium steel won’t tarnish, and it handles everyday wear well. The mother of pearl is natural and soft, though. Take the bangle off before showering, swimming, washing your hands or applying lotion and perfume. Wipe the inlay gently with a soft, dry cloth, and store the bangle on its own to keep its glow.

Elegant. Minimal. Timeless.

FAQ

What is mother of pearl?
Mother of pearl is the iridescent inner layer of a shell. It has a soft, shifting glow, and every piece has its own natural markings.

Will it fit my hand?
The Hera slips over the hand, with a 60mm inner diameter. Measure around your hand at its widest point with your thumb tucked in. If that’s more than about 19cm, the bangle may not pass over your knuckles.

Is it unisex?
The design suits anyone. The 60mm size fits small to medium hands best, so check your hand measurement before ordering.

Can I wear it in water?
It’s best to keep it dry. The titanium steel handles water well, but the mother of pearl is natural and porous. Water, soap and chemicals can dull its glow and loosen the inlay over time.

Will it tarnish?
The titanium steel won’t tarnish. Keep the mother of pearl away from perfume, lotion and cleaning products to protect its shine.

How do I care for the inlay?
Wipe it gently with a soft, dry cloth after wearing. Don’t soak it or use jewellery cleaner, and store the bangle on its own so the shell isn’t scratched.

How is the Hera different from the Whisperfly pieces?
The Whisperfly necklace and bracelet use mother of pearl in butterfly shapes on sterling silver chains. The Hera is a sleek, minimal bangle in titanium steel, with one clean mother of pearl panel.

Is it suitable for sensitive skin?
Titanium steel is well tolerated by most people. If your skin is very reactive to metals, MNML’s pure titanium pieces are the most reliable choice.

Is it a good gift?
Yes. Its soft glow and timeless shape suit birthdays and milestones. Check the recipient’s hand size first. It ships without packaging as part of Elements, so add a gift box if you’re giving it as a present.
