ABOUT HAPPY PIASSO:

Born in 1972 in the small town of Socorro, New Mexico, Happy spent her formative years growing up in the nearby community of Alamo, New Mexico. Over the years, she has dedicated herself to the art of jewelry-making for roughly half of her life. Happy learned the intricate and traditional art of silversmithing under the guidance of her husband, Rudy Willie, with whom she collaborates closely on various jewelry designs. Rudy is a respected member of the well-known "Willie Family," a lineage rich in artistic talent, with "Ronnie Willie" being just one of his many brothers and numerous siblings, along with countless nephews and nieces who also excel as artisans. Notable names in this talented family include Dakota, Cooper, and Tawney Willie, to mention just a few. Happy is a devoted artist who consistently honors the legacy of traditional ‘Old School’ Navajo jewelry and remains deeply committed to preserving this important art form, a cherished heritage that has been passed down from their Navajo ancestors through the generations..

THE CUFF:

Placed along the top in a beautifully organized ‘row’ style, are some of the most stunningly colored cuts of Royston turquoise that were meticulously handpicked for their vibrant color and unique elongated oval shape. Each piece exudes a mesmerizing hue, showcasing the natural beauty of the stone, while every one of the 7 cuts possesses its own distinct character and charm!

SIZING:

Sized for a man OR woman & is made for a larger size wrist that is "fleshy" & needs a wide gap opening to put it over the thickness of a fleshier arm. (1-1/2") Because of the heavy gauge, doesn't allow this to be adjusted, so you would have to know your wrist size & what gap your arm needs before purchasing, since cuffs fit different than any other type bracelet, so it is important they fit right!
