i love the idea! although it seems to follow the obvious XXL trend present in most jewellery houses, i like how this has a much more minimal approach, and not the baroque-ism of diamond pavés and all sorts of colourful stones, and such.
do we know anything about price range? ...

I like the bracelet.

I generally like his stuff..
It isn't as exciting as his clothes,
but it's always tasteful & elegant, imo..
I loved the crystal chandelier pieces he did a while back...
Those were really special..

Btw, Idk if all your pictures are showing...?

^there are only three pics

I love those!!
Especially the signet bracelet.
Ide like there to have been more variety though. I think it would have been interesting if theyde have done something with stones, and treat diamonds for example in a kind of haphazard way, I like the jewellery range they did a while ago with the stones facing inwards, so the pointed side of a crystal was facing out.

Are you sure thats correct, that number 12 completes all the lines? Im sure there are some numbers that havnt been assigned to projects yet.

So far I've loved what he's done with jewelry. Those pictures are by far my favorite because they look like I can still wear them 30 years from now without looking silly. I wonder what retailers will sell the jewelry.
