commonly , images of beautiful thing are going through camera lenses , but you ca n’t deny that there ’s something uniquely beautiful about the lenses themselves . The contrast of the colors on ignominious , the sharp - yet - simple linear designs . It should be no surprise they makesuper silky bracelets .
design by Stefaan duPont over atSDPNT , the bracelets ( or “ wristbands ” if you ’d rather ) are n’t reproductions ; they ’re made from the existent carcasses of once - usable vintage lens system . of course they ’d long since lost their picture - takin ’ power , but duPont found their husks could live a striking second life as jewelry .
The upright news is that theseare in reality useable for sale . There ’s a modified quantity , but you’re able to grease one’s palms them . The bad news is that since they ’re unquestionable , vintage , and unique , they are also pretty expensive . $ 220 on up . And most are already sell out . Not like you were really regard doing anything but salivating anyway . But maybe there will be more someday . Maybe .

Stefaan ’s work here decidedly draws some worthwhile attention to how damnably cool these sort of crystalline lens markups are . And while the authenticity matter is cool , it could also be nice to see some mockups that were a little more budget . And while we ’re at it , maybe we could see some of those geometrical aim on some other cylindrical thing ? We ’re not all bracelet the great unwashed . [ SDPNTviaColossalviaPetaPixel ]
