Elsa Peretti Bone Cuff Decision/Discussion Thread

[_Moravia_]

Bridle and Bone Cuff.

Wore the Mors de Bride scarf ring with the Della Cavalleria Twillon.

This looks great on you! May I ask are you left or right-handed? I’m left-handed and I am looking to purchase my first bone cuff to wear daily and I am trying to decide which wrist I should buy it for.

I was thinking to maybe buy it for my right hand since my dominant hand is left and hopefully the daily wear and tear so to speak would be less on my right wrist. I’ll probably need a small/small too.

My two cents... no doubt in my mind... purchase the bone cuff for your dominant hand. Why?
Because it's a bold piece, we often talk with our dominant hand, your bone cuff will be beyond striking when your hand is flying around in your daily activities. Buy for your dominant hand! This cuff is meant to be seen!

Just my two cents. Congratulations on your soon to be bone cuff!

I agree with @BigAkoya. When you shake hands with someone or hand them something, you'll use your dominant hand. I’ve worn mine for decades and get compliments on it all the time, despite a bit of patina. I hardly ever get it polished at TCO. The last time was probably 5 years ago. I do need to polish it myself more often, but I’m usually wearing it!

I absolutely love the thought behind this! I never thought of it this way!

I hadn't thought of it in that way either. I have been percolating about the bone cuff for a bit, even tried it on ( loved it!), but just assumed it would be for my non-dominant hand, as I didn't want to scratch it up, or bang it more than needed. But you make an excellent point. Perfect!- now I have an excuse to go back and try it on the other hand for a bit.
Thanks so much for giving me another perspective on it.

I’m right handed. I wear a watch on my left hand so there wasn’t another option for me. But I agree that having it on the dominant hand means it is very eye catching and feels powerful. And unlike other bracelets, this is a true minimalist piece. The shape means you can’t really stack it with anything else. It’s meant to stand on its own.

I wanted to thank everyone on here for their help, and to share a sweet ending to this Bone Cuff sizing saga.

I needed to return the bigger cuff, which was the one that I bought in the store. But these pieces do not have serial numbers, so I texted the SA and asked if she was on commission and if she was, if she wanted me to make the return using the receipt from the website.

She was grateful that I had even thought about it. But I worked in retail and I know what it’s like when you’re on commission.

To thank me she gave me these cookies. And here’s a shot of the cuff I took while I was waiting, with the gorgeous turquoise colored lamp in the background.

Thanks very much to you all for your thoughts on this. I hadn't thought about it in that sense but you've given me food for thought and having considered it I think I may be leaning towards buying it for my dominant hand instead!

Thank you! I’m so happy people here persuaded me to keep it and that I tracked down the smaller size.

Does anyone know if Tiffany can repair a scratched ruthenium cuff?
