Regular price £38.00

2 reviews

Etched in glow-in-the-dark pigment with Sylvia Pankhurst's Angel of Freedom and two of Emmeline Pankhurst's famous quotes: 'You have to be militant in your own way' and 'You have to make more noise than anybody else,' from her Freedom or Death speech in  Connecticut in 1913. 

20% of the purchase price will go to Centenary Action, whose mission is to address the barriers facing women in politics and campaign for a gender equal parliament by 2028.

Details & dimensions

This bracelet is adjustable to slip over your hand and tighten, and hand made with nylon cord. The disc measures 2.3cm. (1in.) in diameter and is etched with non-toxic glow-in-the-dark paint.

Care instructions

Acrylic can break if dropped and will snap under pressure. Please store your jewellery in its box and keep away from lotions and sprays as moisture can discolour metal parts. Mirror acrylic can scratch easily, clean it like you would sunglasses, with a soft cloth and water or lens spray.

Shipping & returns

I am only shipping within the UK at the moment. Postage is £2.95 for Royal Mail Tracked-48 and free on orders over £40.

Please note Tracked-48 is just the speed of shipping and does not mean that all orders are sent out to arrive within 48 hours.

I aim to send out orders within 2-3 days, but at busy time this may take a little longer, as some designs are made to order.

If for any reason you are unhappy with your purchase you can return it to Wear and Resist in its original box and packaging within 14 days of purchase for a refund excluding £2.95 postage. If your order qualified for free postage because of the item you are returning, £2.95 postage costs will be deducted from your refund. For reasons of hygiene I am afraid I cannot refund earrings.

I look at all returns closely myself and won't refund any jewellery that has been worn.

Love, love, love!

I adore this! Is really comfortable to wear and looks great. It really is glow in the dark and I am dead pleased to have got it as part of a wider centenary action campaign. It’s a little reminder to keep going and remember that there still much to be done

love it

Gorgeous, sturdy, I wear it most days! Adjustable for even my weird little wrists (I love this style of bracelet because it's super secure and you never have to worry about it sliding off). Lots of compliments from people tilting their heads sideways to read it 😂 Absolutely gorgeous- would love to see a purple and green version in the future!

About Sarah Day

Wear and Resist was born in early 2017 out of an urge to channel my frustration and growing rage at the political climate into a creative pursuit that would raise money for women's charities. I believe jewellery is about more than just looking pretty. What we wear can empower us and open up conversations. Statement jewellery that actually has something to say!

Solar powered! 🌞

Wear and Resist is running on solar power as we are in the process of making our home and workshop self-sustaining.

Designed and made with love

Everything is made and sent from my Oxfordshire studio. We are an extremely small team – I'm the only full-time member 😄 – so you are truly supporting a small business when you shop here. We aim to get all orders out within 2-3 days but some may need to be made to order and might take a little longer. Sarah xx
