And it's a top pick for Father's Day gifts too. The rich color and artful style reflect a dad's wisdom and warmth.

Craftsmanship and Design

Using the centuries-old embossing technique, designer John S. Brana handcrafts each piece in his San Francisco studio. He starts by carving a pattern into steel, then uses that to plate to transfer that pattern onto copper stock. The copper stock is then hand filed and shaped, and finally finished with careful polishing and oxidation.

The wave embossed cuff has beautiful texture and dimension. Its rich reddish-brown color develops a distinctive patina over time. The 1-inch width is substantial yet comfortable to wear.

This bracelet has an open cuff design without a clasp, letting you slip it on and off easily. It gently curves to hug your wrist in a tailored fit.

Copper Cuff Bracelet Size Chart

Choosing the right cuff size starts with understanding how cuff bracelets are designed to fit. Unlike closed bangles, cuffs include an opening, which allows them to slide onto the wrist comfortably while maintaining structure.

Below is a full sizing breakdown based on total bracelet circumference, opening size, and actual copper length.

Available Sizes

Each size reflects the total inside circumference when worn, not just the metal length. The opening is intentionally designed to allow the cuff to slide onto the wrist while maintaining its shape.

How to Find Your Perfect Fit

Getting the right size is simple and takes less than a minute.

Step by Step Sizing Method

1. Use a flexible measuring tape.
2. Measure your wrist just above the wrist bone where you plan to wear the cuff.
3. Add 1/2 inch to that measurement.

This added space allows for comfort and ensures the cuff is not too tight.

Example Sizing

Why the Opening Matters

Cuff bracelets are not meant to fully close around the wrist. The opening:

• Allows easy wear and removal
• Maintains structural integrity
• Prevents metal fatigue from bending

The copper length plus the opening equals the total wearable circumference.

Quick Sizing Rule

Measure your wrist above the wrist bone and add 1/2 inch.  That number equals the cuff size you should order. Simple, accurate, and ensures a comfortable fit every time.

Frequently Asked Questions

What causes the bracelet to stain my skin green?

All copper jewelry reacts with air, sweat, and skin oils, causing a greenish patina called verdigris. This is temporary staining and fades after cleaning. It's harmless but can look unsightly.

How can I prevent skin discoloration?

Wash the cuff and your wrist daily using mild soap and water. Apply lotion before putting on the bracelet. Taking it off at bedtime also minimizes exposure.

Will I get a refund if it stains my skin?

Unfortunately not - skin discoloration is unavoidable with prolonged copper contact. Be sure to follow our care card instructions included with purchase to minimize irritation.

How do I clean verdigris off the bracelet?

Gently scrub with a soft cloth and mild soap and water. Baking soda or lemon juice can also help lift stains. Avoid harsh chemicals that damage the patina.

Can I resize the cuff if needed?

Our cuff bracelets cannot be resized due to the open cuff design. Refer to the size chart and allow room for some flexibility in fit around your wrist.  You can always exchange for a different size.

How thick and heavy is this cuff?

The 1-inch width gives it substantial presence without excessive weight. The slim profile ensures all-day comfort.

Let us know if you have any other questions! John Brana offers a 30-day return policy if the bracelet doesn't meet your expectations, but notes that skin discoloration alone is not grounds for refund.
