Motivated by the work of designer Malcolm Sayer, creator of the Jaguar E-type, The Mechanists have translated an iconic shape from a most iconic car into a line of sterling silver bracelets. Handmade in the United Kingdom, each bracelet is available with either a choice of sterling silver chain or a selection of coloured cords, with two colour options initially available for the central enamel on the wheel spinner — a staple silhouette for those in the classic car world. In line with the thoroughly British roots of the company and their collection, these variants pay tribute to the famous British Racing Green hue and the Scottish Le Mans heroes Ecurie Ecosse, respectively. Whether you opt for the more formal chain bracelet or a casual cord, these elegant embodiments of petrol-fuelled passion are sure to arouse conversation from both classic car enthusiasts and design fans alike…
