Frosted Rumi

Materials and Craftsmanship

As with other Xauen Original collections, the Rumi Frosted Collection is based on semiprecious stones and high-quality vegetable-tanned leather of Spanish origin. This leather, processed with natural tannins in Spanish tanneries, is the material that distinguishes genuine handcrafted accessories from the synthetic leather products that flood the mass market.

Design and Aesthetics

The aesthetic of the Rumi Frosted Collection reflects Xauen Original's constant pursuit of designs that balance artisanal authenticity with contemporary style. Each piece is designed to be timeless without being boring, original without being extravagant, and handcrafted without being archaic.

Exclusive Xauen Original Adjustment System

The bracelets in the Rumi Frosted Collection use Xauen Original's exclusive leather loop system: adjustable to any wrist between approximately 15 and 23 cm, allowing the bracelet to be put on and taken off without undoing the knot.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What does 'frosted' mean in natural stones?

Frosting is a surface finishing process for stones in which, instead of polishing the surface to a high shine, it undergoes an abrasive treatment that leaves it with a fine, uniform texture, with a matte or satin appearance. The result is that the stone loses the mirror-like shine of conventional polishing and gains in color depth and a very particular silky tactile texture.

What is the visual difference between regular Rumi and Frosted Rumi?

Standard Rumi beads have a polished, high-gloss finish: light reflects off them directly. Frosted Rumi beads have a matte finish that diffuses light instead of reflecting it: the stone's color appears deeper and more saturated, and the texture is softer and silkier to the touch. It's a subtle but very significant difference for those who notice it.

Is a frosted finish more delicate than a polished finish?

The frosted finish can be affected by microscopic scratches with use, although this process is very slow and almost imperceptible on many stones. To keep the matte finish in perfect condition, avoid contact between the beads and highly abrasive surfaces and clean them with a soft, dry cloth.
