The Kolisi Cuff

Forged in purpose, worn with pride.

When Siya Kolisi led South Africa to Rugby World Cup victory in 2019 as the first Black captain of the Springboks, he didn’t just make history – he became a global symbol of unity, resilience, and hope. Since then, he has gone on to lift the Webb Ellis Cup once more, in 2023, becoming the only South African captain to win two World Cups – a feat that has further cemented his legendary status both on and off the field.


But Siya’s story is about more than sporting triumphs. From his humble beginnings in Zwide to the world stage, his journey reflects a deep commitment to uplifting others. Through the Kolisi Foundation, he continues to champion education, food security, gender-based violence prevention, and youth empowerment across South Africa.


It’s this spirit of purpose, perseverance, and possibility that lies at the heart of our latest collaboration – the Kolisi Cuff.

Rewinding slightly, to where it all began, we sent Siya a Zimbabwe Cord Bangle as a heartfelt Father’s Day gift in 2024, with no idea it would arrive on his birthday. No fanfare, no publicity – just a meaningful gesture. But from that serendipitous moment, a connection was forged. One built on shared values: legacy, craftsmanship, family, community – and an unshakable belief in the power of Africa.


From that simple beginning, a beautiful friendship has grown. It has seen Siya and the Kolisi Foundation team host an event at the Patrick Mavros London flagship store, and more recently, he journeyed to the Victoria Falls boutique in Zimbabwe. This relationship – between two African families – has unfolded with authenticity and purpose. And now, it takes form in silver.

The Kolisi Cuff, designed by Patrick Mavros Jnr. and handcrafted in solid sterling silver, is a powerful tribute to purpose-driven impact. Inspired by the Kolisi Foundation logo and the bold geometry of the South African flag, the design carries story and strength in every detail. It’s a unisex piece – available in sizes from S to XXL – and made to be worn with pride.
