Cuff Bracelets
It’s 2023—the year of the cuff.
For many jewelry wearers over the last several years, bracelets—larger, statement-making ones, anyway—just didn’t factor into the daily ensemble. A simple chain link charm bracelet might be an easy piece to slip on and leave there, for example, but a bangle or cuff might have seemed too high maintenance for some to put on.
Zoom didn’t lend itself as the ideal place for bracelets. (Why bother donning one only for it to never be seen?) Virtual meetings were much more conducive to a statement earring or necklace, so it makes sense that the latter categories dominated our social media feeds and internet shopping carts at the time.
As people resume their lives as closely to normal as ever, bracelets are back in the picture and making up for lost time. They’re coming in hot—with plenty of variety.
Made with dazzling diamonds (both natural and lab-grown), colorful gemstones, and a mix of metals in wide-ranging styles and patterns, there’s a cuff out there for the most discerning clients—and perhaps even those who don’t wear bracelets at all.
