Paula says - "You are buying a sterling silver watch cuff. We include at no charge the Bulova timepiece shown here that came with the cuff. The timepiece is a wind-up that is not ticking. This item is sold AS IS. "Sidewinder is the name given to a watch cuff by the Navajo when the timepiece is offset rather than centered. This design lets you read the time without turning your wrist."

About Red CoralRed Coral is the common name given to Corallium Rubrum and several related species of marine coral. Red coral is a collection of hundreds of tiny animals living together in a colonies that resemble small leafless bushes growing on dark, rocky seabottom. The coral skeleton is composed hard calcium carbonate, colored in shades of red from pale pink to deep red. It can be semi-translucent to opaque. It is naturally matte, but can be polished to a glassy shine. Red coral is frequently dyed to enhance color and it can also be impregnated with resins or epoxies to fill surface fissures and flaws. Coral jewelry has been found in ancient Egyptian and prehistoric European burials. The Romans believed coral could protect children from harm, as well as cure bites from snakes and scorpions and diagnose diseases by changing colour. Read more . . . |
