Navajo 2-inch wide Navajo storyteller cuff for 6.and 5/8th's-inch wrist, by Elaine Becenti. #2551

Now THIS  is a storyteller.  You don't have to squint your eyes to see the story unfold here.  Storyteller cuffs that are narrow barely get a hogan and an animal or two in.  That's only a couple of words.  'Best get the popcorn out to take-in the story on this cuff.  It is made by a young Navajo artisan who comes from a long lineage of artisans who do this type of smithing.   A few decades back we relished in dealing in some distinct (and expensive) storyteller concho belts—with a different story on each concho—made by brothers Floyd and Lloyd Becenti (R.I.P.).  Those pieces were coveted works of art.  I see the resemblance of the brothers' work in this cuff.  This beauty is two inches wide.  Total inside circumference of the cuff is 6 and 5/8th's-inches, including the one-inch 'gap.'  The cuff is thoughtfully made convex in nature, having a bit of an outward curvature throughout.  Thus, one's wristbone  will go inside the curvature, making it extremely comfortable to wear.  The wearer should have a 6.5 to a 6.75-inch wrist—measured all the way around the wristbone.  We highly suggest, or plea, to buy it to fit.  "Gently shaping" a cuff into a different size can cause an unnatural bend, or 'kink' in the curvature of the cuff that will never come out—something nobody wants.  We sell less cuffs by insisting people purchase a cuff that actually fits, but our customers are happy with the result.  Weight of this spendid cuff is 91-grams, or 3.21-ounces.  Hallmarked "B."  Complimentary USPS tracked Priority shipping within the U.S.
