Kiki Fritz – Cartridge ring and cufflinks:
Just a small glimpse into the cartridge collection of Kiki Fritz who we met at the Bread&Butter in Berlin. Kiki Fritz is a gold- & silversmith from south Tyrol – Bozen. Inspired by finds of old rifle cartridges from WWI + WWII she started to cut off the bottoms and integrate them into rings and cufflinks. Since the state of decay of those cartridges and the id marks, all works by her are unique.

Peter Fields Shop Berlin
Peter Fields Shop Berlin, Prenzlauer Berg:
During our time at the B&B in Berlin it was a must to finally meet Anie Fields and to see her shop. She was one of the first to order the Feinschmuck Popeye collection so that was another reason to see how the stuff is decorated. As you can see these two girls do a marvelous job in decorating the carefully selected goods within their shop. The brands mix well with unique antiques, vintage stuff and an old racebike (which is for sale as well). As we came there a customer from China pilgrimaged there to buy a Feinschmuck Popeye Zippo.

Another Japanese gem, the Clutch Magazine from Japan. Thanks to Moto for taking the time to have a talk with us and the nice gifts e.g the “you pay finger” and the Clutch x Mr. Freedom Bandana.

Iron Heart x DC4 Party Summer 2013

Iron Heart x DC4 Party Summer 2013 – Berlin Bread&Butter:
Probably the post with the most images but how do you decide which ones to take and which not, anyway. First of all thanks to Anie Fields who informed and took us to this great party after a visit at her shop. Impressed by all the bikes in front of the DC4 Japanese Denim Store, then the unique characters. And when you enter the shop there are a lot of top of the class japanese denim brands, that´s what the name says and that´s what you get! Inside the store I ran into Olaf who offered me a private tour who told me a lot about the brands, Japanese Denim, the steel shrink to fit bathtub in the cellar, that cold beer is gone and the chain stitch hemming service they offer on their unions special machines. After that experience, I have to say, another store you shouldn´t miss when you are into Denim and Quality goods. And for sure the place to go if you searching advice or want to buy a Japanese pair of Jeans.

Watch the steps of making a pair of erotic, bronze cast dices by Feinschmuck:
They still need some refinement to look like these, but you can clearly see the different steps of crafting a pair of erotic bronze dices made by Feinschmuck.
Saint James x Twothirds naval shirt

Saint James + Twothirds naval shirt:
Walked by this great shirt at the Bread&Butter Summer 2013. Did you know that striped shirts were so popular by sailors be-cause they tend to be easier to be spotted when the went overboard + that classic marine striped shirts got 13 stripes. The shirt can be ordered for 100 Euro here. Enjoy to watch the Movie “UNE HISTOIRE D’EAU — MADE IN FRANCE” or the History of the sea/water.
pure blue japan & Syoaiya

pure blue japan & Syoaiya:
Im far from being a denim expert, but the denim i saw at the stand of pure blue japan & Syoaiya was the most extraordinary in color, texture and look for me. Not much to say about it, i hope the macro shoots speak for himself. The uneven weaving caused by old looms and the rich indigo color will result in a great development which you see on the worn samples at the end of this post.
Thanks to the Bread&Butter to bring companies like this to Berlin.
Fein und Ripp – Pike Brothers Party
Fein und Ripp – Pike Brothers Party – Bread & Butter 2013:
At the Fire Dept. I had the chance to have a talk with Fabian from Pike Brothers and he invited me to Fein und Ripp at the party. Traditional Bavarian food and beer was served there by Fabian and it was the place to go at the wednesday after the Bread & Butter fair.
Fein und Ripp can be described as a well stocked Pike Brothers homebase. But as you can see it´s another unique shop far away from being normal which is surely worth a visit. The interieur is carefully selected and seems natural in there. Family run by father and his two sons with a great dedication to quality and deadstock items. Check their news section for keeping updated about their latest finds.
