Completely handmade beaded leather cuff.
Large measures 1-1/2 inches wide.
Crafted of natural, free-range Tanzanian leather, sourced locally to the cooperative.
Comfortable suede interior side.
Fastened by a button stud closure with three adjustable lengths.
Ideal for 6" to 6-1/2" wrists.

CARE:
Though these cuffs are durable, please do not attempt to bend your bracelet to a flat shape after repeated use, it can cause breakage.
If the button closure comes loose, this can be tightened with a flat-head screwdriver.
If you lose the button closure (not a common occurrence), please contact customerservice@shopalvy.com!
It is not recommended to fully saturate these beaded leather cuffs for extended periods of time, but they are fine to get wet with hand-washing, a trip to the beach, etc.
