March Bracelets are here! Today, on March 1st, Greeks around the world honor the ancient tradition of wearing a Martis bracelet to welcome spring. Martis is the Greek word for March. Made of red and white threads, these bracelets are believed to protect children's skin from the sun's first rays as the seasons change. Red symbolizes life and passion, representing the vitality of spring. White stands for purity and light, welcoming the bright days ahead. 

This custom dates back to the Eleusinian Mysteries, where the symbolic "kroki" thread was woven into a bracelet and worn around the right hand and left ankle as a form of protection and a blessing for the season ahead. 

Adjustable and available in several unique styles. Handcrafted wit love, perfect for yourself or as a thoughtful gift steeped in tradition.
