DON LUCAS Southwest Style Deep Italian Red Coral/Blue Lace Agate Cluster 925 Cuff
DON LUCAS Southwest Style Deep Italian Red Coral/Blue Lace Agate Cluster 925 Cuff
Don's love of a variety of stones come through loud & clear in this southwest Santa Fe style cuff!
He is known for having the 'eye' for knowing what choice of stones to use,as well as knowing where to place them for maximum appeal..
In this cuff,each of the red Italian coral & Blue Lace agate cabochons are placed on individual vertical panels that are then soldered to
a wide spread,split shank.The design graduates down in size as it goes toward the terminals,where the design gets smaller.
The Italian coral is top grade & is a incredible deep red.For those of you who are not familiar with Blue Lace Agate,it is a form of Chalcedony & their characteristics are known for their translucent light blue/lavender color & 'banded' line markings.(Zoom in to see)
Hand stamped scalloped appliques sit on each side of the cluster endings.Stamping fills in the the rest of the bare sterling shank.

**To see if this will fit,please read "How to Fit a Cuff" & also look at my "Across Measurement"..This is also a guide to use that may also help.
What you will do is take a cuff that fits,lay it on top of a paper measuring tape,starting on the 1" or 2".See where it extends to.It is the 'inside'(that sits against your wrist/skin) you want to measure,not the 'outside',since there might be stones or work. that then will give you a false reading.This also can be used as somewhat of a guide,but other things also should be taken into consideration, as well(Like the gap, for one)**
To know that this cuff will fit you, please refer to How To Fit A Cuff
