This one suits wrists from about 5.03" to 5.48". Measure with a tape or a strip of paper, snug against the skin, just below the wrist bone.
Too tight -0.87" of room
Forcing this cuff on risks both the stones and the silver. The gap cannot safely be widened to make it fit.
Non-adjustable — solid silver
Thick-gauge sterling does not move by hand, and forcing it work-hardens the shoulders until they crack. Please buy to your measurement rather than planning to adjust it.
How to put a vintage cuff on without bending it
- Turn the cuff so the gap faces the underside of your wrist.
- Rest the opening against the narrowest part — the flat side of the wrist, not the back of the hand.
- Roll it on: slide one terminal past the wrist bone, then rotate the cuff around rather than pushing it straight on.
- Turn the gap back underneath once it is on.
The roll is the whole trick. Pushing a cuff on straight is what makes people force the gap wider, and the silver does not come back.
