Architectural Cuff Bracelets: Modern Art for Your Wrist

While all of these chains, stones, ribbons, pearls, rhinestones and flowers are ornately gorgeous, it can feel like a bit much sometimes. For those who do not like such so-called statement jewelry, it can feel like a bit much all the time. Emerging in retail chains as well as boutiques is a sort of middle ground. Architectural cuff bracelets are both bold and simple in form. Just look at the Isela cuff bracelet on the left ($34). The sleek lines and strong, spare, sculptural details give this jewelry a clean look that, while perpetuating the statement trend, is all at once refreshing.

Take a look at some of these captivating architectural cuff bracelets that could easily be mistaken for an abstract work of art in a modern art museum. Not only are they uniquely beautiful, but they are also affordable. Not one of these architectural cuff bracelets crosses the $40 line.
