Jan Kath’s maxim: “You can be cool, without getting cold feet” is particularly apt for this new collection.

Only at close range does the beholder realize that it is not a solid piece of copper, brass, or brushed aluminum, and that no metallic materials or special chemical dyes have been used at all.
