I tried on the silver version of this cuff bracelet by Pascale Monvoisin, available at Club Monaco. I think it’s meant to be worn rather high on the forearm, which wasn’t very comfortable for me. Both the silver and gold versions are made of brass (this one is gold plated) and set with resin “crystals.” The design philosophy: with inspirations ranging from 1970s New York to the coasts of Africa, Pascale Monvoisin jewelry encapsulates true wanderlust spirit fused with edge and grit.

I didn’t know the price at the time – Cdn $349 – so it’s just as well that I passed because that is a hefty chunk of change for this.
