Stunning Vintage Silver Cuff Bracelet

Handcrafted and intricately detailed this cuff bracelet is totally designed in Taxco silver and the style itself is inspired from the silver cuff bracelets of the 1940’s. Cuff bracelets are known to be a bit stiff, wider that a traditional bracelet and may be worn open or with a round or oval clasp or hinge. The usual style to wear a cuff bracelet is around the wrist and another very popular way to wear a cuff bracelet is around your upper arm. Either way you wear this gorgeous cuff bracelet, the magic of this vintage silver jewelry piece shouts “sophistication”.

This stunning model was created by using the pattern from a piece of antique jewelry as a representation and the design of this cuff is done so professionally that it difficult to tell the difference from the original. With detailing done to perfection right down to the swirls and the antiquing, this is a bracelet that would grace any jewelry collection. The metallic work on the bracelet is called repujado, also referred to as metal embossing. This type of intricate detailing can only be done by hand and those pieces done in the repujado style require deep concentration and a steady craftsman. It takes years of practice to be able to craft a jewelry piece in repujado.

Using a form of tar for fashioning the detail on the bracelet’s surface, Taxco craftsman form the twisted leaves, cut swirls and detail on the bracelet in the technique worn by Hollywood stars of the 1940s. Everything about this silver cuff bracelet will bring delight to the wearer and the price is perfect for those who are looking to invest in silver jewelry from Taxco.
