WWW.WILLSHOTT ACCESSORIES

When Houston-born jeweler William Shott set out to create his own definitive rendition of the often-duplicated ‘Jesus piece’ necklace, the result immediately launched the designer into the limelight—almost overnight, the piece had found its way onto the necks of musicians and fashion industry influencers alike. Since 2013, Shott’s WWW.WILLSHOTT label has attained unforeseen heights, with the designer’s glacial jewelry appearing in a number of runway collections. An ongoing collaboration with multidisciplinary Trouble Andrew has also paved the way for the label's Gucci-assisted design opportunities. Quickly eclipsing its initial word-of-mouth status, WWW.WILLSHOTT has developed into an internationally recognized label known for its innovative pieces of unfaltering quality. Constructed out of 925 sterling silver, freshwater pearls, and onyx beads, the women’s collection focuses on asymmetric constructions, statement pendants, and mismatched chain-link designs, all of which feature the label’s signature logo toggle fastening. Though the label’s dot-com era-referencing prefix acknowledges its own Internet-fueled cultural currency, the minute craftsmanship and tasteful aestheticism of WWW.WILLSHOTT pushes beyond fleeting novelty to assert itself as a veritable time-enduring fixture of women’s jewelry.
