Inlay Turquoise Variscite Copper Sterling Silver Cuff Bracelet
This sterling silver cuff bracelet features an inlay cabochon formed with turquoise and copper. The cab is bezel set framed with sterling rope, and joined to the cuff that is formed with three bands of solid sterling silver. This cuff features my *Patent Pending, original “utility” design, “roll bar”. It allows the cuff to slide easily onto the side of your wrist. There is nothing else like this, and I’m confident you will love the difference it makes. This cuff measures bracelet size 6 1/2”, however I can make it a little smaller, or a little larger if required.
*Patent Pending…
When I started creating my jewelry, I wanted to approach an age-old design issue I saw with cuff bracelets. Going back as far in history as I could research, cuff bracelets have always had flattened ends. Inevitably those flattened ends produce a sharpish/rough edge which always scratches the skin when you slide the cuff on and off. They also become uncomfortable when worn for long periods, as those sharp ends tend to dig into the soft underside of your wrist. My original, patent pending “utility” innovation has rounded ends that, although stationary, allow the cuff to slide easily onto the side of the wrist without scratching. They also soften the pressure on the underside, making them more comfortable to wear. I call the innovation a “roll-bar”, and have a “patent pending” on it while the patent process plays out.
Inlay cabochons like this one are hand formed with natural materials. Although they are referred to as “inlay”, they are actually compression and heat formed. I don’t often use “formed” stones in my pieces, but these ones have such beautiful color combinations, I couldn’t resist.
