Elsa Peretti Bone Cuff Decision/Discussion Thread

#316
Hi! Reviving an old thread...
There are new limited edition colored Bone Cuffs to celebrate its 50th anniversary. Here is the red and blue. It also comes in green. I’m not a fan, I still prefer the classic silver one, but I wanted to share in case anyone is interested.

If anyone purchased one, please post a photo. Maybe it looks better on in real life. I love the Bone Cuff, so this might grow on me.

My cuff arrived! I love it but it’s too small for me. I’m really impressed by how nice it is - it’s got a lovely weight to it and I can see the blue working with a lot of outfits.

Oh wow! It looks great! So vibrant!

The cuff is supposed to fit snug, so you have to put it on like a “hook”. Hard to explain, but “hook” it from the outside thin part of your wrist and bring it over the top of your wrist (and forgive me if you already have a cuff and I am stating the obvious). If it’s really too small and you want to get one, maybe call the NYC store and ask about other sizes.

The standard Bone Cuff is size Medium, Small width. But it also comes in both size Small and Large, Small width. It’s not always on the website but the stores can find one.

That is for the standard silver one though. I am not sure about these limited edition ones.

If you need a great SA at the NYC store, let me know. My SA is great and he’s a Peretti specialist and he can find stuff.

Good luck to you!

Thanks! Yes, the limited edition ones only come in one size. I think customer service might be able to loosen/stretch it open a bit (they used to do that for the silver) but they may not be able to for the plated versions. I think I’m going to return it and get the Peretti Doughnut Bangle instead.

Bummer it only comes in one size. I am a size small in the bone cuff, so this one won't work for me either. I guess that solves my dilemma... thanks for letting me know!

Great idea on the doughnut bangle. I have that bangle and love it as well.
While you're there, if you are into necklaces, try on the bottle necklace. You might already have it, but if not, that's a great piece too. The bone cuff and the bottle necklace are my top two favorites in the Peretti silver line.

Good luck and congrats on your soon to be doughnut bangle!

Hello! :smile:
I’ve long admired all the bone cuffs on here and finally decided to get mine pre loved.

But I’m having doubts now.
its weight is 56g...is it what a small bone cuff should be? Also

Looks different to what’s on T&Co’s website. Could you perhaps tell me weight of your small cuffs, if you have a moment to check? How’s your stamp looking?
I see quite a lot identical cuffs to mine on pre loved sites but now having my doubts...

Just to add, I see now that ‘Tiffany&Co’ font is the same as ‘Italy’. Whereas in every other cuff compared the Tiffany font is distinct.

Hi! I’m not an expert, but I am a huge lover of Peretti and have many pieces, including this Bone Cuff.

To me, it looks fake. And also, if it were me, I would get a new one from Tiffany. The bone cuff is a classic, and you will have it for years. I would rather pay a bit more knowing I have the real thing. You won’t stress over it, and... you can take it in to polish or repair with total confidence. Your purchase will be in the Tiffany system.

Also, this year is a big anniversary year of the bone cuff and all their sizes are stocked up. The size I have is the small width AND the small circumference which always seems a bit hard to find. It’s available now online which at one point, it never was and some SAs never even knew this size existed.

I love my Bone Cuff and wear it tons, especially in the summer. I think you will love it too.

Jewelry is an emotional purchase, it is not just about getting a bargain. It is about getting that ear-to-ear smile on one’s face when wearing the piece. And for me, knowing I bought it at Tiffany gives me that smile.

I hope that made sense.

Good luck!

Thanks for reply willeyi. I want to get second opinions to confirm my suspicions in case I have to argue for a return&refund.

took a photo of what it came in and the stamp on the cuff and they are different. Im pretty sure it’s fake.

wondering if anyone else could chip in?

Yeah.. spacing is wrong, font, etc. Fake. Unless the seller said “No Refunds”, I am sure you can just return with a simple “I did not like it on me”. No need to get into the real vs. fake accusing drama as I am sure the seller will defend it and then it tailspins. Do a simple “changed my mind” return is what I would recommend.

Good luck!

Thank you for the suggestion. Unfortunately the seller doesn’t accept returns but it will go straight to the platform via which I purchased. They were already alerted about my authenticity concerns and will accept the cuff for inspection. What will happen next is the refund hopefully. In the mean time I’ll go to Tiffany&Co store and get a new one :giggle:
