Description

Unique bead embroidery cuff for the person who appreciates individuality. As with all my designs, this is a one of a kind cuff.

I really enjoy designing and creating heavily encrusted bead embroidery cuffs. “Blue Skies Cuff” is self explanatory in its nomenclature. Loads of blue colours with a hint of aqua as well. The central cabochon is a beautiful and quite large blue jade cabochon . “Dodger blue” would be the colour I can call this lovely cabochon. I have added vintage German acrylic cabochons on each side. I love these smaller cabochons as they have a real depth about them as they catch the light. Blue montees, Czech seed and cube beads and a variety of Czech seed beads complete the picture, alongside both glass and freshwater pearls.

“Blue Skies Cuff” is all about colour and texture and one can never have too much of that in their lives. The cuff I personally own and wear always garner comments and admiration when I wear it in public places. This cuff will do the same for you because my work is unique.

“Blue Skies Cuff” measures 21 centimeters (just under 8 1/2 inches) from end to end on the outside. The cuff measures 6.3 centimeters (just under 2 1/2 inches in width) at the largest part. I have a 6 3/4 inch wrist and this cuff fits nicely. There is some flexibility in the metal blank core though.

The back of the cuff is finished with that lovely, velvety smooth ultra suede. The border has been hand stitched too with seed beads for a neat finish. I have used a metal blank as the basis for this cuff so it keeps its shape nicely. Take a look at the last photograph to see how this cuff sits on my wrist. Please note, after photographing this cuff, it was cleaned and stored away.
