Initially Yours

12Karri presents this beautifully monogrammed set of Silver Art Deco Gentleman's Brushes.

One of today’s significant fashion trends makes a very literal statement as monogramming has once again become a stylish way to identify yourself. Sifting through piles of old linens often reveals meticulously monogrammed linen napkins and table cloths, carefully stitched in white, delicate handkerchiefs with tiny and ornate initials, and even more humble representations in colorful cross stitch on cotton. Everything from Laverne’s signature ‘L’ to carefully engraved sterling and crystal are once again in mode and vintage items are a nostalgic and beautiful way for you to join the trend.
