For this edition of Staff Select, we’re hashing it up about all things jewelry, and I’m not talking about wedding bands. Chains, cuffs, bracelets, rings, earrings, money clips, etc. If it’s a luxurious accessory that doesn’t denote your marital status, it counts.

Jewelry is perhaps a divisive topic amongst those in our niche of fashion. It seems to be one of those things that you’re into, or you’re not. Some can’t be troubled with superfluous accessories – even if they’re pretty and shiny. You have to willingly choose to don or carry jewelry, and there are definitely some of us at Heddels who choose the bling, but do we all have the same motivation for doing so? Is it all about the shine and bling of gold and diamonds? Are the pieces we select functional past the point of making us feel pretty? Let’s find out.

Why trust us? Well, we’ve all been in the game long enough to have field-tested a range of quality clothing, and the Heddels operation puts us onto some of the best clothing in the world week in, week out. Whilst our opinions and experiences shouldn’t be taken as definitive, this series will provide you insight into what has worked for us and why.

James – GOOD ART HLYWD Ball Chain 10 Bracelet With Connector

I’m a fussy guy when it comes to jewelry. I have a bit of a complex with rings and necklaces — I’ve always found both a bit uncomfortable and never loved one enough to keep it ’round my neck or finger(s) for any considerable amount of time. Safe to say that has not been a problem with my GOOD ART HLYWD Ball Chain Bracelet, which is one of my prized possessions.

I had hoped to pick up one of these on my premier trip to the States in 2019 but sadly, Self Edge NY was sold out. I tried on a bunch of other bracelets but they just weren’t doing it for me. By the time I got back, my friend had got a job at a retailer that sold GOOD ART and I managed to pick one of these up with a little discount.

Since then, it hasn’t left my wrist. It isn’t a rare or particularly unique bracelet, but it’s mine. It’s what I always wanted from a bracelet — an elevated ball chain made by from GOOD ART’s perfectly crafted .925 Sterling silver which ages beautifully. This thing has only got more attractive over the past 4 years, and I think it will look even better in 10 years’ time.

I love GOOD ART’s Rosette logo which features on the connector, which adds further visual interest to an already charming piece, but what I love even more is the ‘Goosebumps’ Rondel that my girlfriend got me one Christmas. I hope to keep this Rondel on it for as long as possible and add more Rondels as time goes on.

Available at Iron Heart for $161.
