I find it so difficult to give something nice to my loved one. I have succeeded twice: once a beautiful work bag from Prada and a watch. But you don't give that every year. Unless it's a Swatch, but it wasn't. But I have something that is beautiful, special, and cool. I know I once wrote about men with bracelets, but I've kind of changed my mind about that. Yes, a whole row of men of a certain age seems a bit menopausal to me, but such a charming Trinity ring from Cartier on a cord or a hand-knotted summer bracelet that you bought together on the beach and only take off when it is so worn out that it falls off, I find all of that really nice again.

If you really want a cool gift for a man, I would say: give him a bracelet from Maqé the Collection. Indestructible, with beautiful and ethically sourced gemstones, understated, strong, and cool. And exclusive, so not everyone is wearing it. Although it is so beautiful that it will probably change soon.

I interviewed the women behind this brand last year, just read.

And the bracelet that I think is perfect as a Valentine's gift? This one:
