1. A gorgeous crystal Jewellery Cuff by Simone Russell

Simone Russell's handmade sculptural jewellery is exquisite. She is based in Australia and has a background in architecture and fine art and it definitely shows in the pieces she makes. She uses a unique technique to produce woven sculptural forms that are firm to the touch, organic in shape and very comfortable to wear. Her pieces are created by premium quality silver and color coated copper, sterling silver and pure silver wires woven painstakingly together... and all by hand. And she takes custom orders if you would like something specially designed.

The giveaway winner will receive this elegant cuff made from Swarovski crystal. The crystals catch and reflect the light with every movement you make.It is made from premium colour and silver plated copper. One size fits most. It sits about halfway up the arm, between the wrist and the elbow.
