Piece of the Week: Buddha Mama’s ‘Moon and Star’ Cuff
Designed by Buddha Mama’s mother-daughter duo, it would make the perfect Mother’s Day present.

Any mom would be thrilled with a jewel as elaborate as this “Piece of the Week” cuff from Buddha Mama.
The Miami-based mother-daughter duo Nancy and Dakota Badia design the range that combines Eastern iconography with extravagant materials and a sense of fun.
The “Moon and Star Hinged Cuff” is a new addition to the brand’s oeuvre, part of the “Celestial” collection that will debut at this year’s Couture Show.
The collection underscores the importance of familial female figures. It was designed as a tribute to a family member the Badias describe as the matriarch of their family, who died in recent years and had a fascination with the sky and nature.
Crafted in Buddha Mama’s signature 20-karat gold and adorned with 8.11 total carats of diamonds, the intricate design features a scalloped edge and cut-out gallery on the bangle’s inner surface.
The price is available upon request via the Buddha Mama website.
