RIVA Brazilian Luxury Design LEAF collection, vases and condleholders, 2020 First collaboration with the renowned brazilian brand RIVA. Luxury by nature Nature is fragile and fleeting; life comes and goes; dies and reborn, season after season. Vases by their function are often used half of the year to display flowers and lies empty or hidden the other half. The “Leaf” vases are a family of crystal vases, each one of them holding a metal leaf shaped part. The metal leaves give the object an unalterable natural presence, even when empty. Seated in their transparent pedestals, the leaves play with light and reflections as they change along the day, bringing life into a poetic “still life” composition. And, during flower season, the leaves will act as a receptacle for greeting and showcasing fresh flowers. These products, by their design, also pay homage to both Riva’s craftsmanship and the luxurious nature of Brazil.

SEKFORD Watch brand, 2015 Sekford was founded in 2015 to create beautifully elegant dress-watches that are guided by classic British horological principles. Sekford defends classic design and haute horology manufacturing values. It pursues high quality for the many. Not the few. Sekford watches are lovingly made in Switzerland and designed in Britain. The full range of Sekford watches are available through leading retailers such as Mr Porter, Selfridges, Fortnum and Mason and Ogden’s of Harrogate, and directly through sekford.com. The Swiss made Type 1A is the product of a uniquely collaborative process, inspired by the artisanal and cooperative approach of 18th and 19th century English watchmaking workshops. With backgrounds in graphic, product and watch design, Sekford’s founders drew on an extensive aesthetic and material understanding in the watch’s conception while inviting master craftsmen and leading manufacturers to bring their expertise to the project.
Details such as the bespoke numerals on the dial, produced by Paul Barnes of Commercial Type, and the Sekford fox icon, an English Gothic Revival wood engraving by MarkWilkinson, supplement the Type 1A’s combination of British and international traditions of watchmaking and design to form, in the words of horology expert Robin Swithinbank, “a piece of considered design”.
