Arrives in a black Etkie box with a card carrying the name of the artist who made your cuff, and an insert about the artists
Our luxury beaded cuffs are handloomed by Navajo artisans in New Mexico. They work on their own time, in their own spaces, and take orders based on much or little they want to work throughout the year. With every Etkie purchase, you are supporting meaningful income opportunities for artisans, their families, and their communities.
Every cuff is 6" long with a semi-flexible copper band inside the leather, so one size fits most wrists. Place it on your arm above the wrist bone, rotate it into position, squeeze it gently around your wrist, then press the edges down to set it. To take it off, lift the edges gently and rotate it off with your thumb pointing up. Don't overextend it, as that can damage the beads.
We photograph each design as accurately as we can, and small differences in bead placement and color are part of how it’s made.
Silver is the hardest to photograph. It reads flatter on screen than it does on the wrist, and it looks better in person.
If your cuff isn’t right for you, write to us and we’ll help with a return.
Shipping: If your cuff is in stock, it ships within 1 business day, Monday to Friday. Depending on where you live, standard shipping takes 3–5 days. You can upgrade to priority shipping via UPS for a fee. You can find our shipping policy here.

Perfectly Gorgeous!
"Having small petite wrists presented a constant challenge in finding a fitted, snug, clasp-like “stay-on-the-wrist-with-very-little-movement” cuff-piece, compared to many bracelets, cuffs, and wrist-pieces of the past—and it took a LONG time and many trials and errors later, to have found the ONE. This one by ETKIE. THE SUMMER art—gorgeous & sparkly beads, designs, and more is the perfect one, now I can stop looking. I will certainly be returning back to ETKIE, for I love most of their designs, colours, and more, compared to other beadwork (others were too dark, too bold, too loose, non-clasping, and certainly not snug at all) and such. It is snug, comfortably soft, and can close easily around my petite wrists. Highly recommended. This was a birthday gift. ETKIE, and Destiny Barbone—the bracelet-maker, thank-you."
