Cloisonné Sunflower by Darci Shae
How to Measure Your Wrist
In order to select the correct band length for your wrist, you'll need to know your wrist size.
Measure your wrist with a soft tape measure around the part of your wrist that you like to wear your watch.
If you don't have a soft tape measure handy, you can measure it by wrapping a piece of string or ribbon around the part of your wrist that you like to wear your watch. Mark the length and measure it with a ruler in inches. This is your wrist size.
If your wrist size falls in between 2 lengths (ie. a 6.25" or 7.0" wrist), you have to know your preference - would you enjoy a shorter band with less tail, or a longer band with more tail?
Depending on your style, remember to consider if you like to wear your watch looser in the Summer than in the Winter.
Upgrade Your Look with a Butterfly Buckle
A Butterfly Buckle is a clasp on your band that makes your watch easier to take on and off. A butterfly buckle replaces a normal buckle on your watch band so it's always perfectly sized and easier to clasp. Set it once and it's done. It can also help your band last longer. The downside is that it’s a bit bulkier on the inside of your wrist.
Must be purchased separately - Available for our 35mm, 36mm and 38mm watches.

Darci says, “When I was a little girl I lived aboard a sailboat and traveled up and down Central and South America with my family. Through my travels I was inspired by the culture, history, folklore, colors, and the stunning beauty of the nautical world. I collected shells and sea glass that I used to create earrings and necklaces that I sold to other sailors while we passed each other in port. These early experiences creating handcrafted goods were the spark that ignited my creative fire.
"I studied children’s book illustration and metalsmithing at Savannah College of Art and Design in Georgia and cloisonné enameling from master enamelist Merry-Lee Rae in California. My education gave me the tools necessary to begin crafting handmade pieces of art that combine glass enamel and precious metals into vibrant designs that are timeless and visually narrative.
“While I was honing my craft, I also worked as a licensed boat captain sailing both the east and west coasts of the United States and stayed connected to my nomadic upbringing. I worked on vessels 20 to 100-feet long, both in sailing and whale watching, while on the weekends I sold my handmade enamel jewelry and accessories inspired by my experiences. I would see sunsets, whales breaching, waves crashing and otters swimming, and rush to my studio to include these elements in my designs. Now I create my cloisonné products full time and continue sailing and traveling seeking inspiration for my next handmade piece.”

Sapphire is also clearer than glass and has less glare which allows the vibrant colors of the handcrafted watch dials to pop.
