B-Side’s graffiti-inspired jewelry

There’s a good reason why Reebok modeled its new limited edition sneaker collection off the paintings of Jean-Michel Basquiat, the late NYC graffiti genius. Spray-painted works of art never lose their cool.

B-Side Jewelry, the offspring of a design duo Ken Leung and Dana Chin, have translated street graffiti into quirky and interesting, but highly wearable necklaces, rings, bracelets, earrings — and even tie clips and cufflinks.

While some pieces, such as their handcuff bracelets (which are exactly what they sound like), won’t work in 99 percent of offices across America, just think of what others — including this gorgeous red-brass chain necklace — could do to enliven an all-black outfit or plain jane dress.
