ABOUT THE ARTIST:
Considered a 'veteran' jeweler, Leo once teamed with renowned southwestern artist DON LUCAS",,These 2 branched away from each other years ago ,but have maintained similarities in style..
Leo comes from a era where only the finest materials are used & especially for any jeweler that started back in the era Leo had.. One thing Leo is widely known for is by putting a non-traditional twist to southwestern jewelry, where he'll use all the stones known to the region and then beautifully pairs them with vibrantly colored faceted & non faceted semi precious gemstones. But it's not only what he uses that make them work so well side by side, but how he just instinctively knows what color to place against the other, so that the colors explode & come to life! By adding faceted semi-precious gems to the mix , give his pieces a more top notch & very glamorous vibe to southwestern jewelry.. Leo is HIGHLY collectible & sold in more prestigious galleries/stores.

DESCRIPTION:
Using a beautifully balanced variety of both sparkling faceted & non faceted semi precious gems with Kazakhstan & Sleeping Beauty turquoise, Leo didn't fail us at giving us a one phenomenal looking cuff!
The cuff is made of 3 separate panels ,with the real 'star of the show' being the center panel! Dynamic & ultra colorful, the center section has a 18 mm x 17 mm rounded trillion cut of Kazakhstan (Golden Hills) that has that true periwinkle color we love with this turquoise, along with it's signature warm red brown matrix. Using a pallete of warm colored gems, this section has faceted Peridot & Garnet,along with non faceted gems of Amethyst, Pink Tourmaline & Italian Coral. This panel is separated by little cabs of Sleeping Beauty turquoise that sit on the east/west-North/South ends.(See photos) The side panels have smaller cuts of Kazakhstan and are surrounded by little hand made conchos, appliques & wire. The stones have serrated bezels & are set atop of a split sterling shank that has been tooled along the sheet.
*********************
*This is made for a hard to find small sized 6" wrist & is only adjustable with know how. .This has a small 7/8” gap opening so it's meant to fit a skinnier wrist. & because of the small gap opening helps to stay on the wrist without rolling around!** The gauge which is neither thick,nor thin, which allows it to be adjustable if you know how or is done right by a reputable jeweler. If you are not sure what wrist size you have, please click on the link on "How To Fit A Cuff "to learn more. I also I suggest you copy/paste the YouTube link I have there that shows the right way, you should put a cuff on! If you are not sure of your size, please go over this before purchasing.**

PLEASE READ BEFORE PURCHASING:
*****I do not consider myself a 'professional photographer" but I do try my best to give you photos that are 'realistic" in color,just so you're not disappointed when you get the item. I find photographing anything with 'yellow' in it, (oranges & greens especially) can come up a little more vivid, depending on your monitor, so please take this into consideration. So please go through all photos to see ANY variation.
In order to show all the fine detail, close up photos tend to make the item look much larger & everything also is more magnified .So to get an accurate idea of how big this is,please view photos of it on the fwrist or you can pull out a tape measure & compare to my given measurements in the "INFO".
