Why This Bracelet
This is our everyday wear scapular bracelet — built for durability, not for special occasions.

We describe every material honestly: the chain is gold-plated 316L stainless steel, and the medals are made from a pearlescent shell-effect material that mimics natural mother-of-pearl. What you get in exchange for the accessible price is a bracelet that survives showers, exercise, and Florida humidity — something a delicate piece won't do.

About the Brown Scapular Devotion
The Brown Scapular of Our Lady of Mount Carmel is one of the oldest sacramentals in the Catholic Church, traditionally traced to a vision of the Blessed Virgin Mary given to Saint Simon Stock on July 16, 1251, in Cambridge, England. The feast day of Our Lady of Mount Carmel is celebrated each year on July 16.
The devotion is associated with the Carmelite Order, founded on Mount Carmel in present-day Israel during the 12th century. To wear a scapular bracelet as a Catholic sacramental, it should first be blessed and invested by a Catholic priest.
The two medals on this bracelet contain the imagery traditionally required for a scapular: Our Lady of Mount Carmel on one side, and the Sacred Heart of Jesus on the other.
Who This Bracelet Is For
- Teens and young adults beginning a daily devotional practice
- Confirmation candidates and recently confirmed Catholics
- Quinceañeras and their court
- College students wanting a low-maintenance scapular for dorm life and the gym
- Daily-wear devotees who already own a heirloom piece and want a "workhorse" version
- Anyone wanting authentic Catholic imagery in a piece built to last
Care Instructions
This bracelet is designed for low-maintenance daily wear:
- Safe for handwashing, showering, and light exercise
- Wipe dry after heavy sweat or chlorine exposure to extend plating life
- Store in the gift box when not worn to prevent scratches
- Clean with a soft dry cloth — avoid jewelry polish or chemical cleaners
- Gold plating typically lasts 12–18 months with daily wear
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this real mother-of-pearl?
No. The medals use a pearlescent shell-effect material that mimics the iridescent look of natural mother-of-pearl.
Is this real gold?
No — the chain is gold-plated 316L stainless steel. The gold-plated finish gives the appearance and warmth of gold jewelry at an accessible price, while the stainless steel core resists tarnish, rust, and breakage.
Is this a valid scapular for Catholic devotion?
The bracelet contains both required images — Our Lady of Mount Carmel and the Sacred Heart of Jesus. To use it as a sacramental, a Catholic priest should bless it, and the wearer should be enrolled in the Brown Scapular confraternity.
Will it turn my skin green?
No. The 316L stainless steel base is the same grade used in surgical instruments and is hypoallergenic. The gold plating wears gradually over time but does not cause skin discoloration.
What size wrist does it fit?
The adjustable sliding clasp fits wrists from approximately 5.5" to 7.5", making it suitable for teens and adults. We don't recommend this size for young children. For First Communion gifts, please see our children's scapular collection.
Is this appropriate for a Confirmation gift?
Yes — this is one of our most popular Confirmation gifts. The durable construction makes it suitable for daily wear by teens, and the gift box packaging makes it ready to give.
