Handmade Wide Silver Cuff Bracelet |
| This huge and very heavy cuff bracelet is handmade using solid sterling silver sheet with a thickness of 1.2mm sheet. Six inches of silver is shaped into a cuff bracelet. It is then hammered using an unusual technique. Silversmiths usually hammer metal on metal to produce the hammered effect which is normally seen on silver. Instead a different procedure is used which ensures that the silver is not stretched or mishapen in any other way excluding the hammering. This ensures that the depth of the silver remains the same throughout the bracelet. It does however, take a lot longer to carry out this different procedure - but the results are most definitely worth it! Once the hammering has been carried out, an individual setting has been made for the beautiful chrysocolla turquoise gemstone and this in turn is soldered onto the bracelet. This particular cuff bracelet has been given a gentle scalloped edge to the bracelet. Because the back is open, it will fit most sized wrists. Silver is a malleable metal (easy to shape). Gently prize apart by using equal strength on both edges or close together by the same method if required. Once made, the bracelet will be sent by Royal Mail Special Delivery (and returned by the same) to the London Assay Office to receive the hallmarks as pictured. These marks confirm the quality of the precious metal used to make it. The bracelet will then be posted by Royal Mail Special Delivery to you in the quality cuff bracelet box as pictured. |
