Expressing the complex shapes and textures of the transmission with ridge patterns

Dunhill's relationship with men's jewellery began in the 1930s. Beautiful pieces such as lighters, cufflinks, bracelets, and brooches continue to be created with the same commitment to craft, innovation, and excellence that forms the core of the brand today.

This latest launch is a capsule collection comprising bracelets, rings, and necklaces in 18K white gold and 18K yellow gold, inspired by the gearboxes of automobiles, a subject with which Dunhill has a strong connection.

Creative Director Mark Weston, who spearheaded the collection, commented, "The Transmission collection was essential to exploring and interpreting modern masculinity. I wanted to incorporate the brand's legacy in fine jewellery and craftsmanship, and create something beautiful from the unexpected."

A tribute to the brand's long-standing automotive heritage, the collection features a ridge pattern that captures the intricate shapes and textures found within a transmission. The highly precise and sophisticated details, including diagonal cuts, grooves, and knurling, are realised through digital milling, exuding a unique elegance.

This capsule collection embodies an approach to modern masculinity that resonates with Dunhill's overarching themes.
