Knuckle-dusters now have a much softer feel, and to make sure your jewellery doesn't 'die', just water frequently. Of the Growing Jewellery collection, the team at HAF by Hafsteinn Juliusson say "Growing Jewellery is a redefinition of modern values. It is a clash of jewellery and gardening; couture and organism. The collection of this hand jewellery is designed for people in metropolitan cities and is an experiment in drawing nature toward man, as nature being the presupposition of life."
