Other People's Jewelry: Miansai

Jewelry for boys, by a boy. Loved by all.  It makes me a little sad that for all the beautiful delicate jewelry a lot of female designers make--dainty champion Catbird is the prime example--boys have an uncanny ability to make universal hardy pieces. Pieces that are inspired by hardware and industrial parts without being directly derivative.  Pieces with enough heft and the proper proportions so that the average man that isn't Liberace or Johnny Depp would actually want to wear it, and that women love to steal.  Pieces that can easily adorn a thicker wrist and endure the rough-and-tumble of manual labor and general careless bumping around. Because menswear automatically translates to unisex.  Womenswear tends to be relegated to the pink side of the pond--unless you're Kanye West.


I want this,

The Naomi Cuff

And this.
The Reeve Cuff



That is all.
