Lapis Lazuli Cuff Bracelets

An statement Memphis post-modernism cuff bracelet. Outstanding architectural geometric piece, created in Milan, Italy around the 1980's. It is an unique piece crafted in solid .929/.999 sterling silver with very strong Memphis patterns. Embellished at the both ends, with a pair of cylindrical elements (16 x 15 mm), carved from natural vivid blue lapis lazuli. Very neat piece, with gorgeous craftmanship. Has a total weight of 109.9 grams and is adjustable to fit a wrist-arm up to 7.25 inches (18.4 Cm). The overall measures are 127 mm by 64 mm (5 x 2.5 inches).

After the inaugural meeting, the group decided that they would meet again in February 1981. The members brought over 100 drawings with them, picturing a variety of bold, colorful designs with multiple stylistic influences. The Memphis Group went on to create furniture, fabrics, patterns, ceramics and other products in a distinctly Postmodern style that blended stylistic traits of 1950s kitsch, Art Deco, and Pop Art.
