It made sense to tap into the zeitgeist when it came to relaxing formerly stringent classifications: ‘We have seen a great deal of cross-category collecting, as collectors’ tastes continue to evolve globally,’ says Delissa Handoko, head of online sales.

Arsham himself dips between cultures – his blackened stainless steel wristwatch with playful wandering minute and seconds sits alongside last year’s bronze hourglass.
dips more towards the avant garde, uniting more progressive pieces with special editions and collectibles. In total, 180 lots are available to view at Phillips Hong Kong.Share your email to receive our daily digest of inspiration, escapism and design stories from around the worldPlease keep me up to date with special offers and news from Wallpaper and other brands within the TI Media.
