Nic, as marie said. you can give to any silversmith, it is easy to do it.  you have just to show some bracelets here on this network to know how to do it.

verry nice bracelets and engraving.  i guess North Niger / Mali

perhaps a silversmith can make the inside rim smooth so you can get in without shaving your skin off.

Love them. I have only a single one, and very small. Besides, mine was obviously once cut open, probably someone was unable to take it off and it had to be cut. I have put it on, but - really blessed myself with the edges to bleeding. So nowadays, I do not wear it anymore... a pity, as I love it!  Wearing other bracelets......... smile.

Yes they are so beautiful, pity they don't fit me! The sharpness of the edges inside makes me unable to slip them over my wrist. Same size in a bracelet with a smooth interior surface and I'd be able to do it, but these just don't go.
