Shine a Light

Fetty Jewelry

You might wonder what accessories have to do with songwriting.

But if you’re a serious rock and roll outfit, the answer is simple: everything.

Brooklyn-based Justin Tranter knew the importance of being properly bejeweled when he started his band, Semi Precious Weapons. And when he started selling little bits of jewelry at his shows, the intricately designed line Fetty was born.

Witness the delicate fourteen-karat ax inlaid with pavé diamonds dangling next to a white gold heart. Bangle bracelets have dazzlers spelling out “Yes,” “You,” and “Try” in braille. The zodiac necklaces signal your sign on a circle of oxidized silver.

They’re subtle enough for every day but will outlast your collection of one-hit wonders.

And that’s music to your ears.

Available at Barneys Co-Op, 1811 Walnut Street (215-563-5333 or barneys.com). To see styles, go to thefetty.com.
