THE CUFF:

Having a traditional/old school/vintage revival vibe,Al highlights this horizontally laid Lapis cut that shares the spotlight with the 4 directional crosses that are seen on the sides of the tooled shank.(See photo 8) The stone sits in one of Al's perfectly made serrated bezels that is finished off with twisted wire. The finishing is lightly oxidized, but left darker in the crevices so the design along the shank, is accentuated.

Al dropped the gauge of sterling that he had been working with, to now working with a heavier gauge, so the cuff feels solid & durable! But the one thing about working with a heavier gauge, is for the fact that they are harder to adjust.(if needed)

WRIST SIZE:

This is made for a larger sized 7" wrist & either man OR woman can wear this! The 1.25" gap opening is great for one who has a little 'fleshier' wrist & needs a wider gap opening to put it over the arm. Because of the heavy gauge, doesn't allow this to be adjusted, so you would have to know your wrist size before purchasing since cuffs fit different than any other type bracelet, so it is important they fit right!
