One of the most popular jewelers in this business, Gabriel Urist has come together with Japanese b-boy Big-O from the group Phenomenon. Big-O is also part of the Swagger design team. This Gabriel Urist x Phenomenon pendant will be available either in sterling silver or gold-plated and created in limited quantities. The pose struck by the b-boy is a throwback to the glory years of the 80’s, with the iconic beat box and high tops, however the inclusion of a New Era fitted creates a more modern look. This will be available at the Swagger flagship shop before the end of April.
