Sruli Recht is at it again with this new project entitled r¿ng.  A gorgeous interchangeable rough diamond ring made custom for 3530 Euros. I love the mystery feel behind this.

The diamonds herein presented have been sourced from legitimate sources not involved in funding conflict, and in compliance with United Nations resolutions. These diamonds are guaranteed conflict free based on personal knowledge and written guarantees provided by the supplier of these diamonds, and that they are treatment free in any way or form. Due to the unique nature of each diamond set, the claws may vary slightly. The thread are made with a precise watchmaker thread cutter which fix the setting to the ring so that it must be undone by hand and can´t unscrew itself.

r¿ng is a 10carat white gold Möbius band with a hand tapped 16gauge internal [female] thread to receive three uncut rough diamonds set individually into screw-in external thread-form propeller claws.Housed in a 215-piece hand-painted box with threaded lid for safekeeping the 6.86 carat total weight over three different diamonds*. [Black 3.53ct / White 1.88ct / Yellow 1.44ct]

An architect, photographer and a graf writer walk into a bar… My three guised men, ill advised once again. Oh by night, Oh by night… from the acts of construction, observation and destruction this product of defacement did form.

This Carbon Dater by Sruli Recht is a black diamond-tipped carbon pen for writing and illustrating directly on glass. Amazing.

The details: A .30 carat black diamond set in milled brass claw, fixed to a hand tooled laser engraved inanimate carbon rod, presented in an inked 304piece hinged cardboard box.

Why do I need one of these again? Want.

Megan Herbert has produced a range of five gift-wrapping papers created to enhance your gifts for any occasion. An Australian-born illustrator and writer, she is now based in Iceland. In the Summer of 2009 she and designer Sruli Recht (and our friend) opened their own concept store, Vopnabúrið, in downtown Reykjavik. Iceland’s beautiful desolation is a big influence on her work.

Love these, especially the bloody one, bottom left!

For those of you who can’t be bothered with wearing a sweater, the Snuggie was a godsend. But there’s a major problem with it — it really lacks style. Sruli Recht’s Blankoat doesn’t. Brought to you by the designer who created an umbrella meshed with brass knuckles, a slick bow tie, and an interminably long scarf, this stylish, wearable blanket is made with cozy Icelandic wool so it’s light, warm, and thankfully not itchy. A good choice for those who want the druid style, but don’t want to look cheap doing it.

You may recall the name Sruli Recht from such past wonderful design innovations as the Umbuster and the Bound Skarf. The latter — a lengthy accessory of over nine feet — was harvested from the rarest of cottons woven only by the Lantaan people on the border between Laos and Burma. You’d think that after creating a collection of scarves that impressive in length, there’d hardly be a scrap left to even fashion of pair of shoelaces. As it turns out, there were some leftovers. Not content to let such resources go to waste, the Iceland-based design wiz came up with yet another wearable wonder. This time, the remaining thin slivers of fiber were forged into the another desirable addition for the dapper dresser, a bow-tie. Available in both Indigo and Sandstone, these uncommon accessories are sure to add a hint of wordly allure to any formal ensemble. Pick up yours soon, as it may be a while before someone visits the Lantaans and gathers more of this scarce fabric.

At first glance, the Umbuster seems like it would offer you more protection in a dark alley than from dark clouds, but it’s actually a suitable safeguard from both. The umbrella, from Reyjavik-based designer Sruli Recht, was originally created as a prototype for a university project back in 2002 using a cheap pair of aluminum knuckle dusters bolted to a rather low-end umbrella. The product has come a long way since its modest beginnings as weaponry; finer materials and greater care in the production are evident in the updated version. Individual handles are hand cut in a five hour process, while the quality umbrella portions are provided courtesy Guy De Jean of France. The original prototype just finally succumbed to wear and tear this past month, making the Umbuster a potential ol’ battle axe of rain guards.

You may have heard … Iceland isn’t doing so hot these days. They’ve still got their gorgeous ice caverns, geothermal baths, and vodka bars, but their economy apparently needs billions to stay afloat. Help it out by picking up one of innovator Sruli Recht’s latest designs – the Bound Skarf. At over nine feet long and made out of ivory cotton and black wool, this lengthy accessory is sure to keep you warm even if you aren’t using the oven to heat your home … yet.

Icelandic designer Sruli Recht has come up with an interesting solution for traveling fashion designers and students who have become frustrated with their lack of workspace while on the road. For Sruli, I imagine this idea was born out of pure necessity– Iceland is, after all, a pretty isolated place, so the ability to bring one’s work abroad is a must. The ‘Cutting Table No. 1′ – or as I have dubbed it, ‘Icelandic Fashion Designer’s Best Friend’ – is a collaboration between Sruli and FormFast, is made of cardboard, and is at once portable and sturdy. It comes with 3 collapsable drawers, jute strap moving/storing box, laminated white surface top, and all replaceable parts. It’s available at the Liborius boutique ($400 U.S.D); and rest assured, if you buy one, they’ll ship it to you (i.e. no trip to Iceland necessary).
