Laffi Peruvian Sterling Cuff Bracelet with Creatures
This Peruvian cuff bracelet depicts a natural scene. The cuff is a wide, flat, sterling silver band that curves around the wrist; two birds and a ... lizard-fish creature are applied to the highly polished field. Small blue cabochons depict two of the animals' eyes. A circle and zigzag motif runs along the bracelet's edges. The cuff's interior is marked "925 Peru," and is signed by famed artist Graziella Laffi. The lizard-fish's days are numbered, those birds look hungry. Circa 1950.
Graziella Laffi (1923–2009) was an Italian-born Peruvian artist and silversmith often called the "Spratling of Peru." She was renown for creating jewelry that married pre-Columbian imagery with contemporary design.
