# Sterling Silver Paperclips The Cement Collection 002 Helps Guys Accessorize By Luisa Amanda Gomes | Published 2010-01-20 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cement-collection-002 References: [hypebeast](http://hypebeast.com/2010/01/cement-collection-002-pendants/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed:) & [themalcolm](http://www.themalcolm.com/this-is-cement-collection-002/) The Cement Collection 002 is the second release of the [General Firm](http://www.thegeneralfirm.com/). Their first release was successful, so why not give it another go? Maintaining that high caliber craftsmanship, which garnered them their previous success, Cement is capitalizing on the cool, antiqued, old world style that is being revived. So, each piece is special and ageless. There is great detail in their pendants that demonstrates the quality and care that went into every one of them. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.9/10 - Popularity: 17% | Activity: 2% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/jewelry) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Antiqued Style:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop new products or services that capitalize on the growing popularity of antiqued, old world style. - **Craftsmanship Revival:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create platforms or initiatives that support and showcase high caliber craftsmanship to meet the increasing demand for quality products. - **Specialized Accessories:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Design and manufacture unique and ageless accessories to cater to the niche market seeking distinctive and personalized pieces. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Jewelry:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Integrate advanced technologies like 3D printing or blockchain into the jewelry industry to enhance design options and traceability. - **Fashion:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Incorporate traditional craftsmanship techniques with modern materials to create fashion items that blend the old and the new. - **E-commerce:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop online platforms or marketplaces that focus on showcasing and selling handcrafted, specialized accessories to a global customer base. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Consciously Cool Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-art-of-adornment.md) - [Charm Jewelry Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/avgvst-berlin-x-crosby-studios.md) - [Sterling Silver Sleek Homeware](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oddities.md) - [Elegant Women's Jewelry Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/womens-jewelry1.md) - [Minimalist Leather Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/plik-1.md) - [Whimsical Heirloom-Quality Symbolic Talismans](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/3-graces-of-gold.md) - [Sculptural Knife Lanyard Beads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paracord-beads.md) - [Utilitarian Design Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dpartment.md) - [Vintage-Inspired Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vintageinspired-jewelry.md)
