BUNNEY × Martine Rose turns bottle tops into silver jewellery for October 24
THE BOTTLE TOP draws on British pub objects for a badge, ring, necklace and functioning bottle-opener keychain. Explore four Japanese prices and the announced retail channels.
Why turn a cap that may be discarded after opening a beer into jewellery? BUNNEY and Martine Rose’s THE BOTTLE TOP collaboration translates its serrated edges and bends into sterling silver 925. The collection launches on October 24, 2026, at Dover Street Market Ginza and BUNNEY’s official online store, with a badge, ring, necklace and bottle-opener keychain.
From disposable cap to repeatedly worn silver
The starting point is British pub culture, where bottle tops and openers connect with gathering and conversation. BUNNEY’s British silversmithing background meets Martine Rose’s attention to everyday culture. Instead of making the object unrecognisable, the designs retain a cap’s edges and opened bend, foregrounding a shape usually overlooked.
In product photographs, light travels across the silver version’s ridged edge. Attention shifts from a bottle’s branding to outline, thickness and shadow. This is a visual change in material and scale, not proof of environmental certification. Unverified recycling or sustainability benefits should not be supplied as a reason to buy.

What distinguishes the four pieces?
The bottle-top badge costs ¥143,000 and makes the bent cap a small chest-level focus. The ¥176,000 ring places the motif on a substantial ring top. The ¥236,500 necklace combines bottle-top and opener charms with a hook clasp, putting the theme in motion. These are announced Japanese tax-inclusive prices, not Taiwan retail prices.

At ¥396,000, the bottle-opener keychain is explicitly described by the brand as functional. That distinguishes it from a purely decorative charm. TIDEZINE has not tested it and does not extend the claim to scratch resistance, impact resistance or compatibility with every cap. Check weight, dimensions and expected use marks individually rather than inferring tool performance from silver appearance.

Where does a pub object sit in the wardrobe?
Badges, rings and necklaces occupy the chest, hand and neckline, changing viewing distance. A small badge on a jacket can look like an object casually left in place, a ring comes forward with hand movement, and a necklace brings the relationship between two tools together. Consider how an object should be seen before choosing a format; the four designs need not be bought as a set.

The planned launch is October 24, not a full release already under way on October 21. Stock, sizes and online delivery coverage depend on store and brand updates. For readers interested in jewellery and subculture, the appeal is the passage of an ordinary object into another value system: the traces of daily life remain, and its edges and bends become details to examine repeatedly.
