Thank you for looking at this one of a kind handmade bracelet, which is repurposed with antique art nouveau Gorham sterling silver repousse that is over 100 years old. Solid sterling 925 tested This cuff has a rustic,tribal bracelet. The bracelet is a one of a kind. I do not copy from any one - no one will be wearing this work of art.:) 15 grams, a nice weight The width is 1.25 inch wide,x 3 inches long Genuine Leather Tying the leather/suede its not so easy but not too difficult - I usually use a combination of a slipknot and a normal knot. First I just tie it with one hand (no one ever helps me) then I loop it around and around and put it through the opposite way. There are videos on the internet that show how to create a slip knot, I suggest to check them out and experiment for yourself. This is handmade, hand forged and is imperfectly perfect
