I will be completely honest: at first I did not like this cuff at all. I am not entirely sure exactly what it was that I did not like – even if there was just one particular thing at all. Whatever the reason, my initial reaction to this cuff was distaste.
But it grows on you.
It is a simple design and I have always favored the simple over the elaborate. I believe that an elaborately designed piece of eye-catching jewelry is the product of merely mediocre talent. However, the simple jewelry that creates the same effect is the result of a gifted jewelry designer.
This cut out heart enamel cuff sneaks up on you. The gold and black color scheme is an old one – but it is used frequently because it works. In this particular example, the black and gold works well.
The single cut out heart is very effective at creating a cute and lovable piece. The gold outline of the heart is also a nice touch. Bravo.
The cuff is also available in white, gold, pastel blue, and pastel pink. To me, the black works the best and, of course, black never goes out of style. At £45 the price is not too steep to keep you from purchasing more than one.
