O
h, do we dare create
pages dedicated to
works for men? Don't
we all share an eye for the
beautiful? Of course, but there
are those special pieces and
collections that are created with
men in mind and celebrate what
makes a man a man.
Heavy metal illusion
The Blow Torch Teapot is actually made
from
wheel-thrown and hand-built stoneware
and made to look like real machinery by a
special glazing technique.
Artist: Paveen Beer Chunhaswasdikul
Sword in hand
Crafted from
Damascus steel, a material
created by pattern welding, a sword-
making technique that dates back to ancient
times. Viking swords, the Japanese katana
and the Indonesian kris were all made using
pattern welding techniques. These cufflinks
are accented with 1
8k gold and rubies.

Off the cuff
Hand-forged and patterned, the Damascus
Flat Cuff Twist is a masculine bracelet made
from
stainless steel alloys. The piece has
a bold presence, but is light enough for
everyday wear.
