If
you are a die hard cuff bracelet wearer like I am, there are several types of
Native American sterling silver cuff bracelets that are cooler to wear in summer
weather than the traditional solid cuffs.
One
is called the spread wire bracelet. It is almost as if the artists has opened
up the bracelet to let the wrist breathe !! I’ve seen those with 3 and 5
bands (and matching rings) but the sky is the limit.
Another
type is what I call the mesh bracelet. Instead of a solid band, the bracelet is
made of interwoven strands of sterling silver that results in an open weave, allowing
air circulation. Many of these are made by the Tahe family, noted Navajo silversmiths.
And
finally there are the sandcast bracelets with or without stones. The designs and
widths vary but all allow a generous amount of breathing room !
