There is something very delicate and lovely about this necklace.

An excellent choice for a gift, perhaps?

“Designers Marina and Susanna Sent belong to a family which has worked for generations in Murano, the ancient center for the production of Venetian glass. The sisters continue the ancient tradition, giving a contemporary edge to the timeless art form. This refined piece resembles a cluster of bubbles, which sparkle with reflected light.”

Made in Italy
Size: 20.5″l

These are so very clever(!)…keep in mind that each piece is unique and apparently sells fast.

“re:vision is the product of Craig Arnold’s unbridled passion for cameras, recycling and polishing. Handmade in Adelaide Australia, from discarded camera components and reshaped with love, re:vision brings old school cameras into an entirely new focus.”

This could possibly become a classic in the years to come.

“A very simple but very chic design, the LED watch successfully brings digital iconography into the world of fashion. Ideal for those whose tastes straddle the divide between classic design and modern technology.”

Materials: ABS, sus, polyurethane

1.25″W x 8.75″L x 0.25″H

I have to admit, I was a bit dubious about Warhol’s designs being interpreted into watches, but I think some of them turned out to look pretty decent.

Silver Sketch Pack, $45.00
Gold Sketch Pack, $45.00
Fragile Crosses Watch, $300.00

So clever. I love it.

“With its dot matrix design, the face of this watch is shaped like a computer icon. Made of an ABS and stainless steel body with a polyurethane band.”

Whoa. I don’t know if I would pleased or freaked out if someone wanted my profile on their finger, but it’s bound to be impressive no matter what the initial response might be.

“CONTURA, platinum (also available in stainless steel, silver, white and yellow gold) a ring that is made from the profile of the carrier or the presenter. An original in the best sense. You submit a profile photo along with ring size to Fitzsu and we send the information to Germany to be custom made. CONTURA is simple and easy to identify. There is hardly a ring on the market that is more personal, more individual, and more emotional than the CONTURA. Take your loved one’s profile with you everywhere you go- who could want more?”

Prices start at $580. and vary based on material and size.

If you’ve ever found yourself having the ‘postmodern’ vs. ‘post-postmodern’ debate, then here’s a necklace to state which side of the fence you’re on.

PostModern Necklace: 2 1/2″ long acrylic pendant on 16″ sterling silver chain.
PostPostModern Necklace: 2 1/2″ long acrylic pendant on 15″ sterling silver chain.

Recently DesignBoom was selling some of 22designstudio’s rings, and they sold out in a flash. I was lucky enough to get one, and I’ve got to say I love it.  The rings are made of Stainless and concrete, and the concrete feels surprisingly smooth.

“Drawn freehand by the designer, the circular frame of this ring acts as
the beginning of a dialog between the designer and the person wearing
it. The circular design creates ever-lasting space for communication
and interaction between creator and receiver, designer and customer.”

I’m kind of liking this pin. Perhaps it would cheer up some passers-by on your daily commute to work?

“This is how an unfortunate moment becomes a fun accessory. A two part pin made from gold matt finish acrylic that will surely make passers by smile. Just smile back.”

From part of the ever-changing cadre of designs available from Designboom, these concrete rings are a great buy and actually come in wearable sizes.

At first glance I had a rather negative response to this ring- it’s huge, made from a cowrie shell, a little too luxury-in-excess etc., but after looking at it a while I kind of love it, probably for the same reasons. And, yes, you did read that right, it’s $800.

Faceted onyx nestled in a wreath of silver droplets sits atop natural cowrie shell, hollowed to accommodate ring sizes 6-8. Black.

Whole and half sizes 6-8.

I’ve posted one of Anne Gericke’s necklaces before, but I thought it was time for a reminder. Gericke is a German jewelry designer who takes tiny detailed figures and puts them in tiny glass boxes measuring no more than an inch in width.

Cheeky necklaces which have descriptions of lavish jewelry in a simple font.

Make an anti-watch statement with this very witty bracelet.

“Seifart plays with the trend in which watches are increasingly being used as fashion accessories rather than as a way of telling time. This timeless bracelet is made from stainless steel and has a traditional fold-over clasp.”
