This cuff is the most recent of my handmade copper cuff bracelet designs.  This cuff displays two amazing natural royston turquoise gemstones - both turquoise gemstones are a beautiful sky blue, with the larger turquoise showing lots of wonderful brown matrix from it's host rock, ryolite.

I fabricated this cuff from 16ga copper and lined the entire inside of this cuff with 26ga fine silver. I created a unique texture on the copper by fusing recycled copper dust to the surface - this gives the copper a leather-like appearance.  The fine silver bezels that surrounds these two gorgeous royston turquoise gemstones have been fused with recycled fine silver creating a very unique, rustic texture.  The larger stone has been surrounded by sterling silver twist wire to add detail to this cuff's Southwest appeal. And finally, the entire turquoise copper cuff was given a beautiful patina of golds and browns.  This turquoise copper cuff, with it's rusticated texture and patina, is a beautiful piece of wearable art.

This handcrafted turquoise gemstone copper cuff bracelet is approximately 3/4" in width, with the actual center stone setting ~ 1/2".  This copper cuff will fit wrist sizes 6 to 7 1/2".   If you wrist is smaller than 6", this cuff will fit a little loose - my wrist is 5 1/2 and this cuff is loose but not so loose that I couldn't wear it.  You will absolutely love this copper cuff bracelet moment you put it on your wrist!

Read my latest blog post #turquoiseoverdiamonds  for more information on types of turquoise and caring for your turquoise jewelry.

Please avoid moisturizers and or perfume on the area of your wrist where your cuff will be worn, as it may react with the copper and leave dark marks on your wrist.  Also, some people may have an allergic skin reaction to copper and it will leave dark marks on their skin.  Either way, the dark marks can be washed off easily with a little soap and water.

Wearing copper bracelets for health benefits has a long history, all the way back to ancient Egypt.  Other than being very grounding, copper is also said to be beneficial for those who have arthritis/inflammation, joint pain, and joint stiffness
