14 DAY TRIAL // People magazine dubs a pair of cufflinks from the latest Asprey collection the Father’s Day gift to end all gifts: not only was it created by power couple Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, but it’s also incredibly beautiful. And expensive as well, as it sells for no less than $10,000, an amount that will be donated entirely to charity.
This is not the first time that Brad and Angie agree to do something for charity, even design jewelry to have profits go to one organization or another. However, the Snake Protector Cufflinks, with their black diamonds and green sapphires, manage to stand out – and it’s not only because of their price either. Attention to detail and the combination of materials, plus the fact that they were created by two of the biggest celebrities in the world, should suffice to get anyone with this kind of money to spare interested in them.
“In case you’re searching for the Father’s Day gift to end all Father’s Day gifts: Renaissance power couple Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have unveiled their first men’s design for venerable British jewelry house Asprey. As part of jeweler’s limited-edition Protector collection, Angelina and Brad have designed a pair of diamond cufflinks, available at Asprey stores now,” People magazine says.
“Sharing the same serpent-inspired motif as the rest of the collection (snakes were a symbolic guardian talisman during the actress’s first pregnancy), the 18k white gold cufflinks are encrusted with elegant black diamonds and punctuated with emerald snake eyes. As much a philanthropic gift as a fashion statement, the cufflinks retail for a cool $10,000, with 100% of net proceeds going to the Education Partnership for Children of Conflict (EPCC), a charitable organization co-founded by Jolie. The collection also includes a jeweled ring and bracelets, as well as children’s items like a tooth box and silver egg cup,” the mag goes on to explain.
