Since ancient times, wide bracelets or cuffs formed an essential part of women's and men's wardrobes. Made of precious metals, they served not only as an ornament but also as a talisman. It was believed that a cuff, tightly fitting the wrist, would not allow negative energies to affect its wearer. In order to enhance its protective power, bracelets were decorated with stones charged with healing properties and engraved with special symbols, hieroglyphs or mantras. Alex Soldier offers an extensive selection of cuffs bearing symbols of many positive entities such as love, prosperity, longevity, happiness, blessing and good fortune.

The Crossroad pattern cuff is made in 925 sterling silver, encrusted with 7.2 carats of black spinel and finished with signature proprietary metalwork that creates an effect of a diamond inlay. The cuff is available in 3 sizes and features double hinges for maximum comfort.
