A wide tufa cast sterling silver cuff centered on a rectangular Royston turquoise stone, its soft green face threaded with rust-brown matrix, set in a smooth bezel. A hand-stamped Thunderbird flanks the stone on either side, each set into a triangular panel framed by stamped borders, with subtle raised bump-out details and a heavily textured surface that carries the rugged character of the tufa casting. Finished with a darkened, oxidized patina that settles into the recesses and brings out the depth of the stamp work. One of a kind, now held in a private collection.

Every piece that leaves our shop is made to last. If something fails due to a defect in materials or workmanship, we'll take care of you.

Every piece ships within 1–3 business days from Columbia, Tennessee, with tracking by email.

Returns and exchanges within 30 days of delivery — unworn and in original condition. Return shipping is on us.

Questions? Reach us at info@thecommon.co.

We're among those who appreciate the character natural wear puts on a piece. That said, a few simple measures will help maintain the basic integrity of your jewelry.

  • Keep it dry. Avoid submerging your pieces underwater — this helps prevent discoloration of both the stones and the silver.
  • Go easy on cuffs. Avoid bending cuffs too often, as repeated flexing wears down the silver and can cause cracking or breakage. Gently molding a cuff to your wrist for the initial fit is perfectly fine.
  • Polish as needed. Oxidation occurs naturally to every piece left out in the open. A simple dry clean with a polishing cloth — or a soft handkerchief hanging around — should do the trick.
