Off the Cuff

We’ve never really been into cuffs, unless you count our 24K gold-dipped handcuffs from Kiki de Montparnasse.

But we love the sculptural cuffs ($120) designed by Toronto jeweller, Alison Dawson. She uses interesting materials such as cords, piping and tapes to create pieces that are highly textural, bold and fluid.

Just as original are her striking necklaces ($150) of swirling zippers and braided cord.

Worth getting into fisticuffs over.
