Something for the weekend: Cuffs

The term "statement jewellery" has been bandied about in ­recent fashion seasons to describe things that are ritzy and eye-catching – something that ups an outfit's voltage. These black and gold cuffs do just that, but in their own slightly understated way. From a distance, they're a brilliantly simple flash of metal or slab of solid black; but up close, each is textured or ­intricately ­detailed. Naturally, the larger cuffs require zero wrist company while a combination of the fine thin gold Ongwat one with the black Jigsaw number could make quite the pair. ­Classics in waiting, every one.
