Undulating Sculpted Octopus Cuff Bracelet

An undulating octopus leg to gracefully embrace your wrist – this Octopus Cuff Bracelet is as bold as it is beautiful! An empowering bracelet to wear, this was designed from our interactions with the intelligent and mesmerising Hawaiian Day Octopus. The bracelet mimics the curling search of an octopus arm as it unfurls. Gently wrapping around the wrist, it ends in a characteristic spiral designed to sit on top of the wrist (at the back of hand). See it in action here!

He’e (octopus, tako)

In Hawaii, octopuses are called he’e (in Hawaiian, with a glottal stop between the two e’s) and tako (the Japanese word for it) and if we are lucky, we see them when diving. Deeply intelligent, they have multiple ways to defend themselves – black ink, camouflage, even squirting water. (There’s more about them in our dec 2014 blog) We enjoy their company on dives for both playfulness and inventiveness – even when very small these wonderful creatures will pull themselves up to size to intimidate a photographer!
