Today, William Henry<\/a> presented its first offerings designed and created with gemstone pave settings. These new pieces represent an important step for the American brand renowned for its distinctive collections of functional jewelry<\/a>. The new models, developed in partnership with jewelry designer Scott Keating, add an original and seductive message to William Henry\u2019s existing collections, and represent a new and exclusive offering in the often overlooked world of jewelry for men.<\/div>\n
All the patterns on William Henry\u2019s new bejeweled models are created by hand, and hand set in pave with extensive microscopic work. The gemstones used include white, brown and black diamonds, blue and yellow sapphires, and rubies.<\/div>\n
Initially, Scott Keating\u2019s designs and setting work will be used on some of the brand\u2019s most exclusive pocketknives. Later in 2012, these gem settings will be also used to create new offerings of writing instruments, money clips and golf tools, conferring a new and original appeal to the brand\u2019s most exclusive collections.<\/div>\n
William Henry will start selling the new pieces at the end of the first quarter of 2012, making them available online and through the brand\u2019s network of authorized retailers<\/a> in the US and abroad.<\/div>\n
The seamless integration of classic natural materials, precious metals & gemstones, and state-of-the-art alloys is a hallmark of William Henry\u2019s work. Today\u2019s collections include pocketknives, writing instruments, money clips and golf tools.<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur limited edition collections are always infused with a distinctive and meaningful message\u201d \u2013 Says Matt Conable<\/a>, founder and creative engine of the company. \u201cIt can be imbued in a rare and exotic material such as fossil Mammoth tooth<\/a> or meteorite<\/a>, or in the outstanding craftsmanship of an engraver or a koftgari<\/a> artisan. The design and gem-setting artistry of Scott Keating will add a sparkling and precious new layer to our most exclusive offerings\u201d<\/div>\n
A Winner of multiple awards for his jewelry creations, and with customers of the caliber of Jack Nicholson and Jimmy Buffett, Scott Keating<\/a> is one of the most respected independent jewelry designers in the US. Nature is probably the single most important source of inspiration for his work.<\/div>\n

\u201cI love the contrast between the sparkle of gems and the sheen understated look of organic and fossil materials\u201d<\/i> \u2013 Says Keating. “I find inspiration in earth metals and stones, and adding my love of jewelry making translates the work into functional art.”<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This shared respect for natural proportions and the use of natural organic materials make William Henry and Scott Keating perfect partners. <\/div>\n
\u201cI\u2019ve always admired Scott Keating\u2019s creations and I\u2019m thrilled to be able to offer him our superb collections as a canvas for his beautiful work\u201d \u2013 says Conable.<\/div>\n
