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.

Love my bracelet! Live the
"Love my bracelet! Live the colors. The leather inside is more beautiful and subtile than what I expected. The packaging doesn’t really fit the brand image to me. I would have imagined something more authentic, in line with the brand but still fancy due to the price of the item. A bit disappointed that no one replied to my email I sent few weeks ago regarding the shipment of my order to Paris, France ."
