Having a super attractive, charismatic vibe, this impressive looking cuff is made by "old school" traditional Navajo artist Rick Werito, who is an highly skilled artisan who does nothing but these undeniable-serious looking traditional Navajo pieces. Rick 1st picks his stone & then lets the stone dictate the design. Oozing an ornate edginess, Rick literally makes each piece a "work of art", by not only creating his own applique embellishments that surround the stone, but extends the design by stamping designs into his heavy gauge shanks, so that no matter where you look, the sterling isn't left bare!!

THE FINISHING:

Being one of Rick's biggest fans, one thing I have to admit I absolutely love, is in his finishing & even though many Native artists oxidize their jewelry, Rick is an artist who instinctively knows how much & where to leave the darkened oxidation in order for the total cuff to come to life, while at the same time bringing out the beauty of the design that is BEYOND Gorgeous!!!

SIZING:

This is made for a wide size wrist, but for a wrist that is not "fleshy & meaty" since the gap only has a 7/8" opening.. If you know how to adjust a cuff & feel confident enough to open the gap up a bit more,this can be done with this one. If you don't know how to do this, then I would take it to a reputable jeweler. But just know, that the only thing by doing this, will be to enlarge the gap to accommodate a more meaty wrist,so it can then go over the arm.. It does NOT change the 5-3/4" interior.

Please know your wrist size before purchasing since cuffs fit different than any other type bracelet, it is important they fit right! If you're not sure or have never measured yourself, please don't hesitate to contact me!!Please click on this link to see if this will fit: How To Fit A Cuff
