BRACELETS / CUFFS

The bracelets we offer are handmade by Native American Indians. These bracelets are made by the Navajo, Zuni, Hopi, or Tohono O’odham. The dimensions of the bracelet is included in the description, so you can order the appropriate size to fit your wrist. A bracelet is a general term for a piece of jewelry worn around the wrist, usually with a clasp or closure to secure it, while a “cuff” is a specific type of bracelet that is typically wider, open-ended, and slides onto the wrist without a clasp, fitting snugly against the wrist bone, Please note * if the cuff you are interested in is inlaid with stone, it typically cannot be manipulated to fit your wrist, as the stones may pop out due to tension added through compressing or expanding the bracelet.

*PLEASE NOTE that many Native American Indian hand made items were NOT SIGNED, but may be more desirable and of higher quality than signed pieces. It is also interesting to note that It was often times considered “egotistical’ or “boisterous” among tribal members to sign or hallmark their pieces. Artist’s signatures and “Sterling” stamped on pieces are a relatively recent practice among silversmiths. We will indicate when a piece is clearly “non-Indian” made. The metal presented in our inventory is sterling silver, which is 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% alloy, unless otherwise indicated.
