Cuff bracelets are not a trend — they're the ultimate statement-making jewelry. Fashion is about copycats. Couture is about creating a signature style all will covet but few can replicate.
Whether interlaced with gold or sterling silver, Viv Alex cuff bracelets radiate warmth and color. Plique-à-jour enameling captures the effect of stained glass on a sunny day. But, instead of vast cathedral windows, the effect is duplicated in a small jewel on the canvas of a wide cuff bracelet.
The plique-à-jour technique is one of the most difficult enameling methods used by modern artisans. The process begins with an intricate lattice of thin gold or sterling silver, which is then delicately filled in with transparent enamels of deep, rich colors. There is no metal backing to any of the cuff bracelets in the Vivian Alexander collection. This allows the jewelry to transmit pure, unobstructed color and light.
There are very few skilled artisans who have perfected the art of plique-à-jour, a stunning testament to the devoted artisans of Vivian Alexander.
When you put one (or many!) of these cuff bracelets on your wrist, you wear authentic fine art jewelry that is one of a kind. So go bold this year. Choose substance. Be the epitome of elegance. And style.
Make it a Viv Alex.
