Elizabethan Heart Arch Wrist Cuff

Robert Dudley had this design made for Kenilworth Castle as a declaration of love to Elizabeth I, and then it was never used. Four hundred and fifty years of romantic failure, now on your wrist.

There's something very ALT CVLT about jewellery with a backstory this specific, this melancholy, and this historically loaded. The pierced Elizabethan heart arch design sits in that space between dark aesthetic and genuine historical craft, the kind of piece that rewards people who notice things. It's gothic in the truest sense of the word, meaning it actually has roots, not just a vibe.

Handmade in Australia by ALT CVLT. Cast pewter bangle with pierced Elizabethan heart arch detailing. One size.
