One of my favorite style bloggers, The Divinitus, clued me into the existence of this marvelous thing. I have to agree with her on one thing: if I could only have one piece of jewelry, it would be this. Originially made for a wealthy Hermès client’s dog in the ’30s, the design has since been modified for more fashion-minded beasts like you and I. While it comes in multiple materials, it’s the pure silver cuff that makes my brain go erect. Slide this on to your wrist, and suddenly it’s like the rest of the world becomes more vibrant, more…I hesitate to say arousing, but yes, it really is that life-enhancing. Simple, elegant high-fashion punk, rendered with exquisite care. Naturally such a thing comes at a high price (a bank-account murdering $2,825) but it’s not like you needed to eat this month anyway.
