Story & heritage

Verdura says the Maltese Cross Cuffs were originally designed for Coco Chanel and remain as bold today as they were in the 1930s. The official brand story also identifies these cuffs as the work that became Fulco di Verdura’s signature before he opened his American house.

The current collection keeps that origin visible through cuffs, bracelets, rings, and earclips, but the wide gem-set cuff remains the clearest reading of the icon.

How to choose & style

Let Maltese Cross Cuff be the focal point: its motif is specific enough to carry a simple black dress, cream knit, or tailored jacket without needing competing jewelry. For a quieter read, choose one related format and keep the rest of the metals close in tone.
