A Famous Man's Jewelry

Father’s Day is coming up! Let’s look at one of Hollywood’s most famous dads: Brad Pitt.

He and Angelina Jolie have six children, and they’re known to be devoted parents. But did you know that Brad Pitt is also a jewelry fan? At the 2014 Academy Awards he decided not to wear loaner jewelry like so many stars do. Instead, he wore jewelry that was closer to his heart. In fact, his accessories couldn’t get much closer: the pieces were designed by Angelina herself!

She has a line called Style of Jolie, created in partnership with Robert Procop. Brad’s buttons and cufflinks were from the line, and consisted of tablet-cut diamonds set into yellow gold. It’s incredibly romantic that Brad Pitt seems to be his wife’s jewelry line’s biggest fan.

If the sweet and caring dad on your shopping list this season also enjoys his cufflink, watch, or jewelry collection, consider getting him a handsome and sophisticated storage box. Match his personal style and let him keep his collection organized and smartly presented!

Not being a fan of the newly invented wristwatches, he owned a gold pocket watch by the French designer Breguet, which he nicknamed “The Turnip.”  He used it his whole life, and wore it constantly. His wife Clementine gifted him a few charms to attach to his pocket watch’s heavy gold chain, including a gold heart set with a garnet

ChasingTreasure has an array of handsome valet boxes, watch cases, and more, to keep your precious valuables safe, secure, and exquisitely stored.
