ABOUT BROKEN ARROW VARISCITE:

Broken Arrow comes from Nevada in the Candelaria mining district which produces both Turquoise & Varisite. This is the reason why you'll hear it sometimes referred to as "Varisquoise".The difference between the 2 however is the 'color' of green that is different than the greens we find in turquoise & also the matrix colors differ from turquoise...But Variscite is very much it's own stone & is in a league all it's own. It comes in various green colors, from lighter minty greens, to what is considered an 'emerald' green. But if you're a huge fan of green stones as I am & you're looking for the most sought out color that Broken Arrow produces, then it would be these deep intense greens that you'll want! Intensely colored Broken Arrow is not the easiest to find with this sort of potency & depth of color, since there wasn't much mined & with much of it going into jewelry designs, as well as collector's hands, which makes it somewhat difficult to easily locate & is somewhat rare.. I know when or IF I ever come across this color of Broken Arrow, I grab it as fast as I can for these reasons!

THE CUFF:

No,this isn't the biggest cuff you may find, nor is it one of the heaviest, but what this does have going for it, are the exhilarating colored & quality of these stones! This is a case where 'quality' exceeds quantity.. When this was being put together, Tony did what any smart jeweler with an 'eye for design' would do when they come across stones such as these & that was, by putting the sole focus of these electrifying looking rocks onto a very simply designed tri split shank in order for the stones to dominate the spotlight & outshine the sterling work.

Using free formed uncalibrated cuts, all 5 stones sit secure in a scalloped designed bezel & are just under the width size of the shank. The sterling was finished in a satin-matte-oxidized finishing & with this type of finishing, finishing, you can save time & skip the polishing rag!

WRIST SIZE:

This is made for a medium wrist size where the wrist is wide, but more smaller boned & not 'fleshy & thick'. The small 7/8" gap opening helps to keep this on the wrist without it flopping around & then falling off. The gauge is light enough however to open the gap up a bit more if you need a larger gap opening.

Cuffs are the only bracelet that have to be perfectly, so it's important you know your wrist size & If you're not sure of what size you have, I suggest you contact me. I highly suggest you take time to read at the bottom on "HOW TO FIT A CUFF", as well as copy/pasting the You Tube video, which also gives some valuable info!
