Khotan Bracelet

The Khotan is named for the ancient city in northwest China, on the southern Silk Road, long known as a source of jade. A central line of focal stones and glass beads runs down the cuff, anchoring a hexagonal lattice of bugle beads that opens above and below it, with seed-bead rails closing the edges.

Wear yours with a pushed-up linen sleeve, a turned-back shirt cuff, or a bare wrist below a watch, where the lattice has room to read. It's a piece for gallery openings, conference dinners, or markets where someone's going to ask where it's from.
