The Second Generation Étui (Helix Edition)

Pre-order, shipping approximately January 20th The Second Edition Hastings Étui, known as the Helix Étui, is now available for pre-order. This edition takes its name from the helix cut into the metal handle, a form chosen with intention. The helix represents growth without repetition. Unlike a circle, which returns to the same point, a helix moves forward while remaining rooted in its origin. Each turn echoes the last at a higher elevation. It is a symbol of inheritance, evolution, and refinement over time, not rupture or replacement. The cutouts in the Étui allow the pennies inside to be partially visible and give the object a subtle, bell-like resonance when pennies are placed within. As the Étui is handled, it reveals a shifting diamond pattern through the openings, creating a sense of upward motion. The images shown reflect the final prototype. The first editions to ship may feature slightly wider openings, allowing the pennies to be seen more clearly. A total of 249 Helix Étuis wi
