#8 Turquoise Beaded Sterling Silver Cuff

#8 turquoise, held in a fine silver bezel and circled with rows of hand-made beads. The cuff curves sharp at the center, soft at the ends. Each bead is formed, soldered, and polished one by one. Three rows arch around the stone, fixed to a tapered sterling cuff. Oxidized, then brought to a high polish. Marked on the back with the maker’s stamp and “sterling.”

Artist Inspiration

Some stones want ceremony. This one did. I built the beads one by one to give the stone company. Three rows to shape the wrist. One tip at the top to center it. 

Lifestyle

Dress or denim. Day or night. It catches the light. Works alone.
