The size of this cuff is massive at 2.5in. tall and the diameter is 2 6/8th's. The weight is 87 grams. It is a very old piece and the carving it was pressed against makes a stunning work of art. It is not symmetrical and that gives a natural feeling to the flower. To finish the beauty it is carved on top with intricate detail. I push it up my arm to wear it or I use it to stack behind others that are closer to my wrist. Marked 900 silver as many of these open backed repousse jewels are. Also it bears a hallmark of a heraldic shield with an oval that is off center that I can not make completely out. No cracks or holes a cared for treasure. Not for the faint of heart, simply magnificent!

This outstanding vintage Mexican silver cuff is what makes hunting for Mexican jewels fun. The piece is signed E.S. and is noted in Hougarts book of Mexican Silver and Trade. I have had clampers by this artist and they are finely detailed and all exhibit gorgeous repousse. The weight is heavy at 73 grams. The design is outstanding and the amethyst stones spark the 2in. tall beauty. The gap is 1.25in. and the inside diameter is 2.5 inches. Condition is free of dents or damage. The gap is angled in the back on purpose and opens the piece up where the arm widens making it all the more comfortable. I have never seen another like it and it is certainly collector quality. -
