Awareness Jewelry Announcement:
Awareness jewelry comes in either a bracelet or a zipper
pull. Show your support with a sterling silver ribbon charm and
the color that represents your cause. Green shows support for
organ and tissue donation/transplantation.
The Awareness Bracelet is styled in varying shades of green
with crystal accents and is embellished with a sterling silver
ribbon charm. The bracelet measures approximately 7 ¼ inches and
is adjustable with a lobster claw and link closure. You may also
order this item in smaller sizes for children. Designs and
patterns may vary slightly based on item, color and size.

your purse, wallet or jacket. These pulls are approximately 4
inches long from top of clip to the end of the sterling silver
ribbon charm.
