Metal Cuff

If you could just have one bracelet or even just one accessory for the rest of your life then a “simple metal-cuff” is a great choice. You can dress it up or down and you can find very minimal versions or more elaborate designs that have etchings or engravings and even gemstones embedded.

These can be very affordable just like regular stainless steel or silver-plated steel. They also come in high-end forms of you get a solid gold cuff.

The one drawback to these is that they are not really stackable. That means you cannot wear a metal cuff on the same wrist on which you are wearing a watch. They clang together and may cause micro-scratches on each other. So you know how metal cuffs are not the best bracelets for stacking. But they look great worn alone!

Metal Chain
