Inspired by a striking bracelet he saw in a magazine, Luis Morais decided to make his own version. Compliments from friends and family convinced self-taught jeweler Morais that there was an audience for his craftsmanship, and in 2002 he launched his eponymous men’s line in Miami Beach. Created of gold, rare wood, precious gems, and even upcycled vinyl records, the casually elegant pieces are frequently embellished with a skull or cross motif, lending a Gothic edge to this collection.
