Cuff Love

Bentwood Coffee Cuff Bracelets

You work at home. Wear your nightie to dinner. And enjoy friends with benefits.

You love to double dip.

And that’s the genius behind Bentwood coffee cuffs.

The naturally pretty bracelets-cum-java jackets are handmade from exotic wood scraps by crafty Canadians who know the importance of protecting their hands from a hot cup of joe.

In the company’s Vancouver workshop, reclaimed veneers (bird’s eye maple, black walnut, benge) are formed around an actual takeout cup, so they slip onto your morning coffee as easily as they do your dainty wrist.

It’s ecofriendly style and food safety in one.

In other words, twice as nice.
