Archaeologists have found copper cuffs dating back 7,000 years in ancient Mesopotamia. In ancient Egypt, both men and women wore wide gold and silver cuffs as symbols of power and status — the wider the cuff, the higher the wearer's rank. Native American silversmiths developed highly sophisticated cuff traditions (the Navajo and Zuni traditions remain influential today). The bold cuff returned to Western fashion in the Art Deco 1920s and has never truly left.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cuff's appeal is partly about its history: wearing a cuff bracelet is participating in a 7,000-year-old tradition of adorning the wrist with metal.

Because it sits flush against the skin without the bulk of a hinge or clasp, you can layer three or four bangles on the same wrist comfortably.

Remove the bangle before swimming, showering, or washing hands when possible. If it does get wet, lay it flat to dry completely before storing — never stuff it into a pouch while damp. Wipe the gold-plated segments with a soft dry cloth after wearing. Avoid perfume and hairspray direct contact. The 18K gold plating on sterling typically lasts one to three years.
