Material 925 sterling silver Dimensions band width: approx. 5mmweight: approx. 10.14g Size open cuff, suits wrists approx. 13 to 18.5 cm Description Some jewellery is cast in a mou ld and some is genuinely made, and you can tell the difference from across a room. The Knot bangle is the second kind. Several fine strands of solid 925 sterling silver run side by side around the wrist like threads of ribbon, and at the centre they are tied, actually tied, by hand into a soft reef knot. Not a knot shaped charm soldered on top. The strands themselves loop over and through each other, and the little irregularities of that tying are precisely what make each bangle its own. The multi strand construction is what gives it life on the wrist. A solid band sits still and reads formal. These parallel wires catch the light separately, each at its own angle, so the whole cuff shimmers like water rather than flashing like a mirror. At around 5 millimetres wide and just over 10 grams of solid silver, it has genuine presence and a satisfying weight, yet the lines keep it airy. It reads as substantial without ever reading heavy. And then there is what the knot means, which is the part that makes this one dangerous to browse past. A knot has been shorthand for a bond that holds for about as long as people have been giving each other jewellery: friendship, family, promises kept, ties that don't loosen. Tied by hand in silver, it becomes the rare gift that says something specific without a single word of explanation. For the best friend of twenty years, the sister on the other side of the country, the mum who held everything together, or the person you tied your own knot with. The open cuff design slides on from the side of the wrist, no clasp involved, and its generous shape sits comfortably across a wide range of wrists. Solid sterling silver also means this is a piece for the long haul: it can be polished back to bright again and again, and it only gets more personal as the years of wear settle in. On the wrist it is a natural anchor. Worn alone over a linen sleeve it does the quiet statement thing perfectly, and stacked it plays the polished counterpoint to softer textures, a strand of pearls, a row of turquoise, a fine beaded chain. The knot sits at the top of the wrist and stays there, exactly where it belongs. Every Knot bangle arrives gift boxed and ready to give, and because each one is tied by hand, the bangle that reaches you is quite literally one of a kind. If someone came to mind three paragraphs ago, that's the one it's for. Show more
