Pohjola is the old Finnish word for the North, and the bracelet wears like it sounds — plain, solid, unhurried. Round maple beads just over half an inch across circle the wrist on a hidden elastic band, broken once by a polished steel bead that catches light against the matte wood. The red is dyed into the grain rather than painted over it, and it lands differently on every bead depending on the tree it came from, so a single bracelet holds a range of tones rather than one flat shade. The elastic stretches from 6.3 to 7.5 inches and needs no clasp. Substantial on the wrist and almost weightless — a piece you can type in, cook in, and forget you have on.
