About Us

ARTEFACT® by Henry Xavier Blakeney was born from a vision to redefine fashion accessories through perceptive design, bespoke production, and meaningful narrative. We are more than just a brand; we are storytellers, inspired by the world- celebrating humanity through our carefully curated product selection. Our design team in London works in sync with our artisanal studios, who pour their dedication to craft into each piece. While studying Menswear Design at Central Saint Martins, our founder Henry Xavier Blakeney, honed his taste, design philosophy, and points of reference to be used for ARTEFACT®'s inception. Designing for brands like Hugo Boss, POAN, and Stone Island laid the foundation and formed the base of ARTEFACT's aesthetic and conceptual direction.

A common truth became clear across the industry—from the brands he designed for to the pieces he purchased himself: the accessories space lacked craftsmanship and meaning. From this realisation, ARTEFACT® took form with a simple mission: to create meaningful products with uncompromising quality—objects designed to accompany you throughout your life. We honour the natural world and the vast tapestry of global culture, fusing past, present & future through form.
