In time for fathers day, Partners & Spade present in collaboration with Chandelier Creative the ultimate gift – a 24 karate gold toy soldier set.

“Richard Christiansen, advertising guru and founder of New York’s preeminent creative house, Chandelier Creative, has collaborated with Andy Spade and Anthony Sperduti and their acclaimed studio, Partner’s & Spade, to create the ultimate toy for boys– a five piece, 24 karat gold, limited edition toy soldier set.
Chandelier was founded around creativity, collaborations, and fun –Christiansen’s project with Partner’s & Spade is a perfect example of this. The result; a luxe gift perfect for any dad.

An incandescent gold box embossed with bold text provides a simple and chic packaging for the set. Inside, five individually crafted soldiers lay side by side. Each soldier is handmade, individually capturing a slightly different look and feel, so no two will be exactly the same. In addition, they are all engaged in various activities – some are marching, some are standing guard, and others are taking pictures.

Accompanying the soldiers are four environmental props, also 24 karat gold, ranging from a chiseled brick wall and barrel that provide a safe place for cover, to a pile of debris that remains from battle. Through adding these pieces to the set, Christiansen provides the means for one to fully envision the settings soldiers encounter on a daily basis.” Via The Malcolm.

The limited edition sets, numbered to 100, will be available to purchase exclusively at Partner’s & Spade beginning June 20th. In addition, a celebration will be held at Partner’s & Spade this Father’s Day, June 20, 2010.
