Happy birthday!! What an amazing gift!
Size is personal, depending on how bold of a look you want, but I would say the small and medium are the most popular. The large bone cuff is a split cuff look and it's very wide... 95mm. It's almost like a gladiator type wide wrist band, but it looks great on some people.
I have the small width, 43mm, and the size small diameter. I love it. It's the perfect pack of punch I like. The medium is wider, 61mm, and for me, it was a bit too wide. If you are unsure, try them all on, even if it's not the metal you want, just to get a feel for width.
Also, be sure to buy your correct diameter size which is different than width size.
Your timing is great as there is a big push on the Bone Cuff now, which means all three width sizess also come in all three diameter sizes... small, medium, and large. There was a time when it was super hard to find the small width cuff in the size small diameter. Even SAs did not know about it (the SA I purchased my cuff from swore there was no such thing as a small width, small diameter bone cuff).
You can check out on the website, all three diameter sizes are available
This is the small width bone cuff. You can see it comes in diameter size small, medium, and large.
Here is the medium width, and again... all three diameter sizes.
These two sizing parameters are key to a good fit with the bone cuff, so test it out also.
Good luck! I think you will love love love the bone cuff.

I tried on the bone cuff — both small and medium. I didn’t even try on the large because I knew it would be too bold for me. The small size in cuffs were too small I think, but the medium fit comfortably.
At first, I liked small bone cuff better than medium, but when I stood up and saw myself in the full length mirror… well, even in my casual outfit, the medium cuff was instant love! It is bold without it being too much and I love, love, LOVE it. I tried it in silver.
And I am now a proud member of the bone cuff club! (If there is one, haha).
Photos please! We would all love to see your fabulous bone cuff! Congratulations on joining the BCC (Bone Cuff Club!)
I would love to post some action shots when I get my act together!
I also didn’t realize there was a bone cuff thread, so I’ll post there also!
Hi! It’s me again… and I’m here because I can’t stop thinking about the bottle necklace! I keep reading this thread and other Elsa Peretti threads because I am really loving her pieces. I wish I had started looking beyond the open heart a few years ago…. I really opened a Pandora’s box here, haha.
None of the bottle necklaces are available near me, so I would have to have it ordered to even try it on! I have done some research and it seems like there are even more styles of bottle necklaces than what is shown on the Tiffany website. I am thinking sterling silver. I also know I don’t want the large — I think it might be too bold for me.
Which bottle is the most classic and iconic? Is it the jug? Is it the open bottle? If so, which shape? I am quite indecisive and too many options sometimes for me is not a good thing, haha!

I have the three bottle necklaces... large, medium, and small with turquoise topper. The Large is the most iconic, and it was the one in the original ad where they put the flower in it. I love it, but it sounds like it may be too bold for you. It also gets a bit heavy as it's big.
The medium was my first bottle necklace, and that size is very wearable. It looks great, and it's not too in your face. I wear the bottle necklaces with my Bone Cuff together, and it's a clean but bold look.
I am not a fan of the jug. I much prefer the bottle necklace, but it's 100% preference.
The bottle is also far more iconic than the jug if that matters to you. You also see Peretti wear her large bottle everywhere. When Peretti wears her jug, because it's a bit on the small size, she often layers it.
As you said, there are a lot of combinations. Here are the three bottles I have as FYI:
This is the large bottle I have: https://www.tiffany.com/jewelry/necklaces-pendants/elsa-peretti-bottle-open-bottle-pendant-25760042/
This is the medium bottle I have and, to me, the best size if you only want one: https://www.tiffany.com/jewelry/necklaces-pendants/elsa-peretti-bottle-open-bottle-pendant-10661277/
This is the small bottle with turquoise topper I have. To me, this is a bit small to wear on its own, so I layer it with the turquoise CBTY necklace. The bottle lays inside the turquoise DBTY. Here is both so you can see if you might like doing this as well. When I wear this set, I wear the doughnut bangle and not the bone cuff. I think the doughnut bangle flows better with this softer look.
Hope this helps. I love the bottle necklace. It is my second favorite Peretti piece, after the Bone Cuff.

The bottle being more iconic does matter because it gives me a starting point. Since I have to pay and order to even try it on, I am hoping the first necklace I order is the one that I like! I would rather not have to return and then re-order.
It is interesting that you mention the bone cuff — that’s the exact piece I was thinking of wearing with.
I was leaning towards the medium (I actually liked the one with rock Crystal) and I think I will stick to this piece for now. I am glad you wear this with the cuff and that you find it the most wearable. Thank you for your thoughts!!
Ugh same! And the Bean clutch. Never seen either unfortunately.
