Serendipitous Discoveries
These are singular buckles—rare finds and treasures discovered over time and sometimes in the unlikeliest of places.

From tucked-away boutiques in the lanes of Hong Kong, to the bohemian alleys of Shimokitazawa and the quieter corners of Ota-ku in Tokyo, open-air market stalls amid the fields of Grunwald in Poland’s Warmian-Masurian region, and the alpine flea markets of Saint-Gervais-les-Bains in the French Alps—I remain ceaselessly in pursuit of extraordinary, one-of-a-kind discoveries.
