One man’s mission to share with the world the fine art of cufflinks.
Each blog a different pair and each blog a different story. Read on in this series….
Your scribe has a real passion for canal cities....Amsterdam, Osaka, St Petersburg and Copenhagen to name your scribe's favourite few.
Copenhagen has been mentioned in dispatches before and we again visit that wonderful Danish city where art meets architecture meets design meets furniture design meets science meets technology meets great everyday living.
Every visit holds a new discovery and a new adventure that your scribe grasps with both hands. Today's links come from the Copenhagen Design Dansk Centre. It is a treasure trove of "stuff" for the design minded and your scribe makes it a must visit for any trip there. It also provides for those last minute presents to the family and friends on your return and it's always a treasure trove for the traveller with links on his mind. The gift shop is almost a museum in itself where your scribe found today's links on his last visit there.
Copenhagen of course has many attractions least of which is its wonderful architecture. A tour of the landmarks (old and new) is a must. Marvel at the Baroque and Rococo, as well as, the modern marvels of Arne Jacobson and Jorn Utzon. Follow this up with a trip to Christiania or a canal side pilsener with cold cuts during one of the lengthiest sunsets on earth and you would rather be no where else.
Today's links I call the Tisk Tisk Tisk links. They are silver plate with three....dare one say "whooshes" without fear of infringement or retribution? They are designed by Karol Ngordsted and they, like other Copenhagen treasures always attract comment from admirers. The "tisks" are a mystery, perhaps as good art should be and they compliment the Gene Meyer of New York silk neck tie with asterisk motifs on green and red stripes. They are worn with a Savile Row cotton shirt.
