The Whaler’s Wife Cuff
Triple stave Nantucket Basket cuff. Mammoth end caps.
Statement-making elegance. If this were in basket form, it would be on your mantle—instead, you can wear it every day.
Our most substantial Nantucket basket cuff, the Whaler’s Wife is crafted with triple staves for a bold, structured look. Molded cherry hardwood creates the signature contrast between the staves and weavers, while authentic, ethically sourced fossilized mammoth end caps add a timeless touch. Ironically, going back in time to fossilized material is our modern way of honoring America’s whaling history.
At this time, these bracelets are sold with “blank” ends that show the beautiful, hand carved fossil, with unique veining from natural minerals. If you’d like to add custom scrimshaw, please email us a specific request.
Product Dimensions & Sizing
Approximately 80% of our customers fall into the “standard” size, which is a size medium in a store. If you're still not sure what size to get, please reference the specific dimensions below:
DIMENSIONS (INSIDE DIAMETER)
Small: 2 1/2"
Medium / Standard: 2 5/8"
Large: 2 3/4"
*We get as close as possible to these measurements, but due to the natural materials, measurements could vary within 1/16".
Product Care
To keep your jewelry in pristine condition, avoid exposure to chemical products, perfumes, excessive sweat, seawater, and pool water. Both saltwater and chlorine can harm your pieces: chlorine can discolor and damage metals mixed with gold and gradually wear down the finish and polish of charms. Additionally, lotions and sprays can leave a film that dulls your jewelry’s shine.
To prevent tarnish and maintain your jewelry’s luster, gently clean it with a soft, damp cloth, making sure to reach all the small crevices. Keeping your jewelry dry is crucial, as moisture accelerates tarnishing.
For storage, keep different types of jewelry separate. We suggest using a Ziploc or sandwich bag with the air squeezed out to minimize oxidation and preserve your pieces.
