This cuff bracelet is beautiful. It has a sizable garnet, that sits on what i think is brass. It is a bit heavy on top, so it’s best when it fits snuggly on wrist. It can be opened slightly to fit wrist. It’s too big on me, so I don’t wear it, but wish it fit better, because it’s gorgeous. I am not sure what the metal the cuff is made out off. The cuff itself is not solid, but still a substantial bracelet.
