Understanding This Piece
About the Natural Diamond
Natural diamonds form deep within the earth over 1–3 billion years under extreme heat and pressure — making each stone genuinely irreplaceable. Diamonds rank 10 on the Mohs hardness scale (the hardest natural material on earth), so they resist scratches better than any other gemstone and are uniquely suited for daily-wear jewelry. Every natural diamond we sell over 0.50ct ships with a GIA or comparable independent grading report documenting its carat weight, color, clarity, and cut precision. Natural diamonds hold their value over decades and carry strong heirloom resale demand.
About Sterling Silver
Sterling silver is 92.5% pure silver alloyed with copper for working strength. It offers the brightest white tone of any jewelry metal and the most accessible price point in fine jewelry — typically 5–10% the cost of equivalent gold pieces. Sterling does tarnish over time when exposed to air and skin oils, but the tarnish polishes off easily and we provide complimentary cleaning for life on every sterling silver piece purchased at our Atlanta location.
About Cuff Bracelets
A cuff is a rigid open-ended bracelet that's flexed to slip over the wrist and conforms once worn — distinct from bangles (closed circles) or chain bracelets. Cuffs can feature minimal smooth polished metal, sculptural geometric forms, diamond pavé across the face, or wide statement metalwork. The open construction means cuffs can be sized to fit a range of wrist diameters and adjusted slightly over time. Cuff bracelets are particularly popular in men's fine jewelry.
