1. Williamsburg Jewelers
“At the heart of Williamsburg Jewelers’ allure are the “ORIGINAL Williamsburg C-shaped Cuff Bracelets”, widely regarded for decades as “The Official Jewelry Item of Williamsburg”. The man behind this iconic creation is none other than Mr. James Curtis, a retired Colonial Williamsburg Master Silversmith. He began crafting these cuff bracelets in 1965, and under his tenure, they gained massive popularity, becoming a staple item cherished by locals and visitors alike. Mr. Curtis was responsible for creating items for several US Presidents, Queen Elizabeth, King Charles (as a gift to Diana), John Wayne, and more celebrities and dignitaries. His greatest love continues to be creating items for local residents and visitors to the Williamsburg area.
When Michael Fagan met Mr. Curtis, they established an instant connection. After a single conversation, Mr. Curtis decided to make Williamsburg Jewelers the exclusive home for his cuff bracelets. The store proudly labels them as the ORIGINAL, crafted by the revered Master Silversmith.
These cuff bracelets have transcended generations, with women passing down matching cuffs to their daughters, granddaughters, and even great-granddaughters. Considered a traditional baby gift, Williamsburg Jewelers offers infant-sized cuff bracelets for one of life’s most cherished moments.
With over 45 styles crafted from Sterling Silver, Yellow Gold Filled, Rose Gold Filled, or a combination of these materials, Williamsburg Jewelers offers a diverse range of designs to suit every taste. From classic simplicity to beaded edges, braided textures, and more, each cuff bracelet is meticulously handwrought by Mr. Curtis. The most popular style, “The Erin,” is a timeless and classic choice in Sterling Silver. However, guests often expand their collections with different designs or incorporate gold-filled cuffs to create a versatile stack. The trend of stacking three to five cuffs has become the norm, offering a personalized touch to every ensemble.”
