Yes, they fit a small wrist. The trick to the cable bracelets, the open ended ones, is to get the proper size. Frankly, that is true of all bracelets. I didn't think I could wear a Yurman cable until I tried a size S from a Yurman boutique. They also have an XS in certain styles. Many department stores only carry a M which rolled sideways and was just too big for my wrist. To wear, put the bracelet on by sliding the open end along the wrist from the side of the wrist which is the narrowest part, twist to upright, and then squeeze to fit the way you want it to. Alone or stacked with many other styles, they are beautiful and timeless.
