John Hardy Spear Flex Cuff Sterling Silver with Blue Sapphires 5.5 mm [CBS9011074BSP]
John HardyThe John Hardy Spear Flex Cuff introduces vivid blue sapphire to the collection’s sculptural Sterling Silver form. Artisan handcrafted from 100% reclaimed Sterling Silver, style CBS9011074BSP follows the wrist in a substantial 5.5 mm bypass silhouette defined by hand-carved texture, engineered flexibility and a concentrated flash of blue.
Ethically sourced blue sapphires are set by hand in pavé along the functional keeper clasp. Their saturated colour creates a striking focal point against the cool silver surface, drawing attention to the precise place where the two sides of the cuff connect. By integrating the sapphires into the fastening system, John Hardy gives the gemstones both a decorative and architectural role.
The closure uses a distinctive needle-and-eye-inspired action. One honed silver terminal threads through the open centre of the sapphire-set keeper, joining the bracelet while maintaining its coiled bypass appearance. This interaction between terminal and clasp reinforces the Spear collection’s directional character and gives the fastening process a sense of precision.
Inside the Sterling Silver body is a slender aerospace-industry titanium wire. Concealed from view, the internal core allows the cuff to flex open during fastening and then retain its intended shape. This technical construction gives the bracelet responsive movement without interrupting the continuous carved surface.
John Hardy’s signature chain motif is hand-carved throughout the 5.5 mm body, creating depth and tactile definition. Light moves across the repeating silver pattern before meeting the richer colour of the sapphire pavé. Two honed terminals complete the composition, lending the bracelet its recognizable Spear profile.
The substantial width gives this edition more visual weight than the slimmer 4 mm Spear cuffs. It can be worn independently as the central wrist statement or coordinated with a finer Sterling Silver chain, cuff or watch. The combination of silver and blue also makes it versatile enough for professional attire, relaxed clothing and evening styling.
As sapphire is traditionally associated with September, the cuff offers additional significance as a birthstone or September birthday gift. Its combination of reclaimed precious metal, ethically sourced gemstones, detailed hand carving and concealed titanium engineering also makes it a distinctive choice for an anniversary, graduation, career achievement or important milestone.

Design & Symbolism
The Spear collection combines traditional John Hardy metalwork with a streamlined, directional silhouette. Its coiled bypass construction ends in two honed terminals, creating the precise elongated form from which the collection takes its name.
The spear shape can be interpreted as an expression of focus, determination and forward movement. Its threading closure reinforces that visual idea as one terminal passes deliberately through the open keeper to unite the bracelet.
Blue sapphires emphasize the connection point through colour. Their vivid tone contrasts with the Sterling Silver and transforms the functional clasp into the visual centre of the design without relying on unverified gemstone properties.
The hidden titanium core brings strength and flexibility together inside the cuff, while the hand-carved exterior preserves the tactile character associated with John Hardy’s artisan heritage.
Styling
Wear the cuff independently when you want its 5.5 mm profile and blue-sapphire clasp to remain the focus. The gemstone colour complements white, black, navy, grey, denim and other cool or neutral shades.
For layered styling, pair it with a slimmer Sterling Silver bracelet or chain. Varying the widths will create visual separation while allowing the Spear cuff to remain the dominant piece.
The bracelet also coordinates naturally with steel watches and understated blue sapphire jewellery. Keep additional gemstone pieces minimal so that the sapphire-set keeper clasp remains clearly visible.
When stacking, avoid placing the pavé directly against another piece with sharp edges. A small amount of separation will help protect the gemstones and preserve the contrasting finishes.

John Hardy bracelet sizes are intended to provide a comfortable fit through the upper end of each measurement range. If the wrist falls directly between sizes, choose the smaller size for a closer fit or the larger size for additional movement.
The internal titanium wire allows the cuff to flex during fastening, but the correct size remains important for comfort and secure positioning. Avoid selecting a smaller size with the intention of repeatedly stretching the cuff beyond its natural fit.
