Oh, the incomparable Diana Vreeland!  This photo captures all of her incomparability and originality and style.  Although 'style' is too weak a word since she operated in an entirely different aesthetic realm, one all her own.  And her jewelry!  Beyond words.  Of the many things that enrapture us about Ms Vreeland, we're most captivated by her habit of wearing pairs of matching cuffs, one on each arm.  An INCREDIBLE, stunningly original look that was the inspiration for some of our newest pieces.  Our wide metal cuffs, designed to be worn as a pair (for maximum impact, natch), come in both a gold-toned brass or a darkened aluminum.  They are rendered from recycled brass and hammered aluminum, respectively, and made by an incredibly talented artisan at a workshop in Nairobi.  We can't wait to show off these beauties in public.  Try a pair, why don't you??
