Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What makes the Elsa Peretti Bone Cuff iconic? A: Designed by Elsa Peretti more than 50 years ago, the Bone Cuff is sculpted to follow the natural contours of the wrist so it feels like a second skin. Its organic, asymmetrical form is purposeful: the “bump” aligns with the wrist bone for comfort and a distinctive silhouette.
Q: Is this cuff for the left or the right wrist? A: Bone Cuffs are produced in left- and right‑wrist versions to mirror your anatomy. The correct orientation is identified by the shape: when the opening faces you, the raised “bump” should correspond to the wrist you’ll wear it on (bump on the right = right wrist; bump on the left = left wrist). If you’re unsure about this specific piece, please check the photos or contact us for confirmation.
Q: How do I put it on and take it off without bending it? A: Rotate your wrist so the thumb side is leading, align the deeper curve of the cuff near the hand, and slide it over the narrow side of the wrist. Once on, rotate so the bump sits over the wrist bone. Remove in reverse. Do not pull the ends apart or squeeze the cuff closed, as repeated bending can weaken sterling silver and distort the shape.
Q: What wrist size does this Small cuff fit? A: This piece fits wrists up to approximately 16.5 cm (about 6.5 in). For best results, measure snugly around the wrist bone with a soft tape or string, and compare to your measurement. Cuffs should fit close to the skin without pinching; if you are between sizes, a slightly larger size is usually more comfortable.
Q: Can the cuff be resized or adjusted? A: Minor adjustments may be possible through professional service, but this design is not meant to be repeatedly flexed at home. For safety and to preserve the shape, consult a professional jeweller about adjustment options rather than attempting to bend it yourself.
Q: Will sterling silver tarnish or scratch, and how should I care for it? A: Sterling silver naturally develops surface scratches with wear and may tarnish when exposed to air, chlorine, or sulphur. Wear it often, avoid harsh chemicals and swimming pools, and store it dry in a soft pouch. Clean with mild soapy water, dry thoroughly, and use a quality silver polishing cloth or silver polish to remove tarnish. Avoid abrasive cleaners and “dip” solutions.
Q: How do I check my size at home? A: Wrap a flexible tape (or string) around the widest part of your wrist where the cuff will sit, mark the meeting point, and measure. As a guide for cuffs, aim for a snug fit. If you plan to stack bracelets, measure higher on the forearm where they’ll sit and consider slight extra room for movement.
Q: What hallmarks should I expect on an authentic vintage Peretti Bone Cuff? A: Authentic examples typically feature clean, crisp stamps such as Tiffany & Co., Peretti, and 925 for sterling silver, and often the country of manufacture (commonly Italy). Stamping can vary by era, but lettering should be sharp and well finished. If you’d like close‑up photos of the hallmarks on this piece, please ask.
Q: Can I wear it every day and with other pieces? A: Yes—many owners wear the Bone Cuff daily. Put it on after lotions and remove for strenuous activities to minimise knocks. It pairs well with slimmer bangles or a watch, but to avoid rubbing, allow a little space between rigid pieces.
Q: What comes with this item and what is its condition? A: This pre‑owned cuff is in Very Good Condition with gentle signs of wear consistent with careful use, and it comes with a box. Everything included is listed under Accessories on this page.
