BULGARI FEATURES MARIJUANA LEAF JEWELS

by Angelyn Kwek

Think dramatic colour combinations and grand dimensions, plus an aesthetic that challenges every high jewellery convention and you’ve got the Bvlgari Wild Pop collection. Inspired by the go-go ’80s attitude — which is totally in line with the rule-breaker maison — these new haute joaillerie creations are fully embracing the unexpected by working the ‘more is more‘ mantra.

Bvlgari’s creative director Lucia Silvestri was bit by the inspirational bug when she saw Bvlgari catalogs and correspondence in the artist’s archives (Nicola Bulgari and Andy Warhol were pals). She explains: “I wanted to do something about this fantastic dialogue between Bvlgari and Andy Warhol.”

ONE-OF-A-KIND ROLEX Milgauss "Sweet Leaf" Watch in Steel

“Today, we are in the midst of the biggest cultural shift on views of cannabis in modern history," says Buddy Austin, jewelry artist at Third Eye Assembly. "It’s time to give the beauty of the cannabis plant a luxury association that it truly deserves.” Austin says he found the inspiration for the piece while growing two plants of his own, having to invest in the health of the plants and studying them as they took shape. It was a great way to combine his passion for jewelry engraving with a new one of growing cannabis. Though if you're loaded and looking to buy a couple for wrist one and wrist two, sorry, not for sale. Sweet Leaf was sold to a private buyer before it was completed at a healthy $30,000.

WORLD'S 1st PLANE MADE FROM
and POWERED BY HEMP

The core concept of changing manufacturing into a green process goes further than just materials. It is about changing things from the ground up.

by Christopher Teague
We’ve been looking at the innovative uses of hemp this week for Hemp History Week. While the concept of a mostly hemp body on a vehicle, aside from Henry Ford’s singular attempts almost a century ago, is a relatively new feat for the Western Hemisphere, some European manufacturers have been incorporating hemp panels into their designs for over two decades. Sure we all “ooh” and “aah” when hemp is mentioned in a product description, but the core concept of changing manufacturing into a green process goes further than just materials. It is about changing things from the ground up. 

The latest example: the new BMW-i3.
  Government regulations in the 1990’s forced most European car manufacturers to go greener by using recyclable materials, and BMW took to the challenge with gusto. It started out with trunk liners and airbag parts, but as the molding of hemp into sturdy, lighter-than-steel panels became more practical, they expanded the innovation. By 2006, the entire BMW 5 series used hemp door panels.
The latest and greatest, the BMW i Series Taking the concept of going green even further, BMW has developed an all-electric sedan of their own, to rival the likes of Tesla and others steering the future of vehicle manufacturing into brave new territory. The BMW i3 not only takes advantage of the lighter-but-stronger hemp material in several facets of its design, it does so proudly. The car uses the natural aesthetic to make the passenger experience less like a machine, and more like “a small loft on wheels”, according to i3 designer Benoit Jacob. Those natural features even include olive leaf tanned leather and open-pore eucalyptus wood accents, grown in a certified forest.

Hempearth Group is set to build the world’s first plane made from and powered by HEMP. Not only the plane set to run on HEMPEARTH Hemp Jet A Bio Fuel, but it is set to be built almost entirely from HEMP. Everything from the seats, the wings, the plane walls and even the pillows are set to contain hemp. Details: The world’s first plane made from and powered by HEMP can hold one pilot and four very lucky passengers. The plane’s wingspan is 36 feet.

Why Build A Plane Made From Hemp? HEMP/Cannabis, in addition to being one of the world’s healthiest, and most versatile plants on earth, HEMP is pound for pound 10 times stronger than steel. This means that it can withstand a lot more weight before and breaks, and it can bend way further than metal. Great for Aviation. Additionally, traditional aerospace materials are heavier than hemp and toxic and not sustainable. Most manufacturers use aluminum and fiberglass to built planes. Hemp is significantly lighter and therefore requires a lot less fuel to get up in the sky. Most importantly, hemp is an environmentally friendly material. Hemp requires way less water and land to grow than cotton and even puts nutrients back into the soil through a process called phytoremeditation.

Who Designed It
Canadian cannabis company Hempearth and the leader in HEMP and Marijuana developed the world’s first HEMP plane. Founded in 2012, Hempearth also sells 100% HEMP Surfboards, Paddleboards, Oils, Cannabis, 100% HEMP Board and a variety of organic products and the company is also developing The World’s First HEMP Fiber Body Phone. Florida company, Velocity, Inc. is set to manufacture the plane and a signed manufacturing contract is in place. The company also turned down Dupont as they don’t and never will sign or work with fascist companies that are associated with military, The Rockefellers, The Rothchilds and or the Military Industrial Complex.

Imperiale Geneve Cigar / Cannagar Chest

by Roberta Naas

Created in a limited edition of just 12 pieces annually – carries a hefty price tag of just over $1 million.

Naturally, being a chest for all iterations of cigars, the Emperador displays, in real time, the humidity and temperature inside the chest, the power reserve (as it must be charged if not plugged in) and more. The humidity system is a self-regulating system developed by Imperiali Genève, and guarantees a constant humidity level of 70 percent and a temperature of 16-18 degrees Celsius regardless of the external environmental conditions. (Of course, the owner can change these variables if he or she so wishes.) This Swiss hand-made humidor has 2,675 components including an internal gas lighter and tourbillion watch. They make only 12 a year so the waitlist is serious.

Retail value: one million swiss francs or US$1,004,369

MARIJUANA AS ART

Daniel Fetcho’s paintings honor marijuana beyond cliche stoner culture.

by Sean Neumann

When you see weed in pop-culture, it’s often some play on pot leaves and a swirl of Rastafarian colors. Daniel Fetcho became fed up with the stereotypical way marijuana is represented and wanted to help get rid of the clichés. Marijuana has a history in almost every culture, so Fetcho decided to look back into his bi-cultural Chinese-German and Irish background to create different representations of marijuana that appeal to a broader audience.

The Los Angeles-raised artist says, “It was clear to me that a major barrier keeping cannabis from the mainstream was a branding one.”
