Lumière Cuff

A wide 18k gold cuff set with sixty pavé diamonds — generous enough to fill a frame, light enough to forget you're wearing it. The Lumière is the premium bracelet in the Lamond collection. Sixty round-brilliant lab-grown diamonds, 2ct total, hand-set in pavé across a continuous 8mm-wide solid 18k gold cuff. Every stone is D color (the top grade, completely colorless) and VVS2 clarity. **About the cuff form:** Unlike a chain bracelet that drapes, a cuff holds its shape. The Lumière is hinged at the back with a pressure-fit opening, which means it slides on easily but grips the wrist. No clasp to fail, no chain to twist. The oval interior shape is specifically sized to sit flush against the wrist bone without bouncing. **About pavé work:** "Pavé" (French for paved) is a setting technique where tiny grains of metal hold each stone in place, creating a near-continuous diamond surface. Done properly, it's one of the most labor-intensive jewelry techniques — each of the 60 stones on the Lumière is hand-set by a trained pavé setter, typically taking a full day per cuff. **The 18k gold:** 75% pure gold. Heavier, warmer in tone, and more valuable than 14k. A solid 18k cuff of this width would weigh approximately 24 grams — substantial without being ostentatious. The metal alone, excluding the diamonds and labor, accounts for a significant portion of the piece's value. **Sizing:** Available in S (6" interior), M (6.5"), and L (7"). The hinge allows for slight adjustment. Measure the thinnest part of your wrist just below the wrist bone. **Wear it with:** Everything. The Lumière is deliberately designed as a no-occasion piece. It reads casual with a T-shirt, refined with a blazer, and complete on its own. Pair with a watch on the opposite wrist rather than stacking. **At this spec:** A 2ct pavé cuff in solid 18k with D/VVS2 matched stones would retail for $4,000+ in traditional channels. Ours is $1,200. Ships in a fitted presentation box with IGI certification for every stone.
