Dress Studs

We have a new set of dress studs available for Dinner Shirts.

They come in three finishes: Onyx, Mother of Pearl and Hematite.

Hematite is a mineral, colored black to steel or silver-gray.

Hematite was popular in Victorian era jewellery; it has a matt sheen and deep gunmetal tone that makes it perfect for men’s jewellery.

All Crane Brothers jewellery is hand made exclusively in New Zealand by one of the countries oldest remaining manufacturing jewelers.

All jewellery is sterling silver or gold and carries the Crane Brothers hallmark.

Bespoke commissions are available and we can also organize hand engraving.
