Michelis is also for young & hip guys

MANILA, Philippines - Today’s men have definitely gone beyond the watch-and-a-ring standard and are now even sporting diamond studs on their ears. And we’re not just talking about metrosexuals. But one thing sure is guys still opt for styles that retain a masculine look even while being fashion forward.

There’s one shop that allows the fashionable man to have his pick, from sterling silver jewelry and accent pieces. Michelis features exquisite craftsmanship and Michelis men’s line, Miche, offers a variety of designs.

“Our men’s line consists of classic jewelry pieces like cufflinks, chains and pendants, tie slides, shirt studs, rings and bracelets,” shares Michelis’ Sanya Faustmann. “Men are most inclined to purchase pieces that have clean lines, a very masculine appeal, or a unique symbolism.”

It is obvious that men’s tastes in accessories have evolved. “Men in the Philippines are quite open to wearing pendants either on a silver chain or a neoprene cord,” adds Faustmann. “And our new leather collection is also a hit.

Silver remains a guy’s favorite. “Silver or white metal has always been more popular with men as it has a youthful appeal; it makes the owner or wearer seem young and hip,” muses Faustmann. “There seems to be an impression that gold jewelry — particularly yellow gold — is very aging.”

Michelis, known for excellent craftsmanship and innovative design, offers most premium silver items, from classic pieces such as traditional necklaces, earrings and bracelets, to more trendsetting items that feature bolder, unique designs. 

Michelis uses the highest quality materials. Each Michelis sterling silver item is made of 95-percent pure silver — the level of purity required by the international market — thus distinguishing it from other silver boutiques.

Every Michelis item is also handcrafted according to European standards by a team of local talents, and the design and the materials used are all made and sourced locally in support of the Philippine jewelry industry.

Michelis has shops at Greenbelt 5, Rustan’s Ermita, Rustan’s Alabang Town Center, Rustan’s Tower Shangri-La Plaza, the Mega Atrium at SM Megamall, The Podium, The Block at SM City North EDSA, and at the lobby of the Mandarin Oriental Hotel.

Michelis is also available at Rositi Fine Jewellery, Silk Coccoon, Sp Boutique at Hotel Sofitel Philippine Plaza, and online at Filfgifts.com.
