All of your cuff bracelet questions answered! This blog post will answer your questions about size, wear, adjustments, and care for your botanical cuff bracelet.
I’m often asked how I got the idea to make jewelry from the prickly pear cactus skeleton. I moved to Tucson in 2010 to start my jewelry making career full-time. I was walking my dog around my new neighborhood, and saw a live prickly pear cactus with one pad that had the dried skeleton exposed. I was drawn to this beautiful, intricate maze of dried fiber, and immediately knew I wanted that pattern wrapped around my wrist. Luckily, I was taking lost wax casting classes at the time and knew I could use this technique to replicate the cactus skeleton in metal.
Lila Clare's cuff bracelets are lost wax cast from the prickly pear cactus skeleton. The use of nature's own organic pattern results in stunning, organic, wearable art forms. The shapes lend themselves to cuff bracelets, with the prickly pear design literally wrapped around your wrist.
