I think the circumference/diameter are the same with all the cuffs...the sizing refers to the width.
I own the large and bent it to make it smaller but only a tad. If it's really loose no amount of tweaking will help, probably applies if you have a large wrist, too.
Sorry you are disappointed...it really is a great cuff. Don't worry, you'll find something else!
We always do. LOL!

I think you're right. At first the SA said he could order it in a smaller size (circumference), then he came back to the counter and said they're all the same. It's not just big, it's way too big.

But you are correct, I will find something else to obsess over!

Emchhardy, I'm sorry I didn't take a picture of the black when I was in the store. I really liked it. I wear so much black, I would have bought it for sure if it had fit me. I wear mostly gold metal and to me the ruthenium was too much like silvertone. The black was lovely in my opinion.

I'd love to see a black one, too! I wonder if it's fairly new. I didn't see anything like it when I bought mine.

Honestly? If Tiffany & Co. offered the Bone Cuff in Galaxy Titanium, I would already own it!! :graucho: The sterling is too bright & shiny for my taste, and doesn't really blend into my style. However, the ruthenium is too dark and I felt as though I could only wear it with darker colors... So, I didn't purchase either one.

I have been obsessed with the cuff for awhile... But I know that I will wear the heck out of the sterling silver, and in due time, it will develop a nice patina! But yep, Galaxy Titanium would have been my number one choice!!!

I am a big fan of patina... I had this really striking armor ring that needed to be repaired, and after twenty odd years of wearing it, it had developed a really nice patina. After they fixed it, they had to polish it up and WOW was it shiny! I missed the patina though... Oh well, another 20 years isn't too long!!!

Here it is! The small bone cuff for my right hand. I like it alot more. I just popped it on, so lets see if I get any irritation from that one spot on the bottom of my wrist like I did from the medium one. I have to admit, since this one came fresh from NYC, it fits quite snug. But I will just get my favorite non Tiffany jeweler to adjust the size if need be.

Looks terrific! You can "tweak" it a bit...I did it myself.

I was just browsing on the Tiffany website and I realised that my cuff is the left arm version and I am right handed! Eek, does it really matter that I have been wearing it on the wrong hand? I always wear a watch so there is no way that I can wear it on my left wrist.

What would it look like if you flipped it around so it went over your wrist bone? Would that work?

Hi Everyone,

I'm new here and I just got my Bone Cuff in silver. I'm wondering how it supposed to fit. It's somewhat uncomfortable putting it on and taking it off. I don't think it's too small for me, because once they're on it can move around freely and shows some gap.
I wonder if Tiffany can somehow reshape it to fit my wrist better?
How are your experience with your Bone Cuff? If you don't mind sharing. Here I attach some pictures for you to see how it looks on my wrist and please tell me whether you think it is too big or too small for me?
Your opinion is very appreciated. Thank you so much!

It took some practice for me to get mine on and off easily. If its comfortable once it's on, I think it might just be a matter of practicing on putting it on and taking it off. But that's only my experience. Others might have different experiences and advice. I think it looks nice on you but I think it's most important that its comfortable. If it is too loose it will slide so that the knob part won't rest on your wrist bone. They are beautiful pieces.

Mine is a bit tough to get on and off, but it is meant to be very snug. Tiffany's will not adjust it, I already asked :(
