Matching your jewelry is predictable, not to mention dated.
These
bracelets come in a pileup of metals and look refreshingly cool when
stacked on top of one another. Cartier was already combining
materials
back in the Thirties, when the French house released its yellow gold and
silver studded cuff (far right). Russell Zelenetz, co-owner
of the
Stephen Russell jewelry boutique, recently came upon the antique piece
and knew it was special. “It’s almost ethnic looking
but at the same
time modern,” he says. “And it’s gutsy, not blingy.”
