Personalized Jewelry Brand SETT to Launch SETT NOIR, A Sterling Silver Collection with Three Distinct Luxury Finishes
Phoenix, AZ, Aug. 15, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SETT, a men's jewelry brand known merging aesthetic simplicity with personalization, has announced the upcoming launch of its newest collection: SETT NOIR – sterling silver men's bracelet fusing three distinct finishes: black rhodium, white rhodium, and gold plating. Defined by its rich contrast and meticulous design, the collection marks a bold shift toward more sophisticated, contemporary luxury design within the brand's portfolio. SETT NOIR Inspired by the use of black rhodium-plated sterling silver, a hallmark element running through the entire series, the name SETT NOIR takes its cue from the collection's darker, refined aesthetic. Developed entirely in-house, the designs were brought to life in partnership with Italian artisans, with each bracelet crafted and finished in Italy. 'Our goal with SETT NOIR was to take a step beyond our classical styles and explore more elevated, modern expression of men's jewelry,' said Uri Raveh, SETT Brand Manager. 'By combining three contrasting finishes in a single sterling silver piece, we've created a collection that feels both distinctive and versatile, balancing bold design with understated elegance.' A Step Beyond the Classics While SETT's existing collections have emphasized timeless, personalized pieces, SETT NOIR introduces a different design language. The collection moves away from purely classical silhouette, embracing a more sophisticated aesthetic that appeals to men seeking jewelry with subtle complexity. The combination of dark, bright, and warm tones gives each piece a layered architectural quality – deliberate balance of depth, light, and texture. This contrast of the black rhodium, white rhodium, and gold plating is built into the design itself rather than added as ornament, allowing the finishes to enhance the structure and presence of the bracelets. The result is a collection that commands attention without overpowering. SETT NOIR complements a tailored suit as naturally as they add edge to a casual ensemble, serving as versatile accents that can adapt to multiple personal styles. By blending bold contrast with a restrained architectural form, SETT NOIR bridges the heritage of classic craftsmanship with contemporary sensibility. It is a collection designed to resonate with seasoned jewelry collectors and those seeking a meaningful new addition to their wardrobe. A Permanent Collection With Future Potential Unlike seasonal drops that appear briefly and fade with trends, SETT NOIR is envisioned as a long-term part of the brand's portfolio, signaling SETT's confidence in the collection's staying power and its relevance to the modern men's jewelry market. From the outset SETT intends to expand SETT NOIR beyond bracelets. The brand already exploring how the distinctive three-finish combination could translate into other forms. According to the brand, if early reception is strong, it plans to expand the NOIR design language into necklaces, potentially followed by additional categories that preserve the collection's unique architectural balance. 'We see SETT NOIR as more than a single collection. It's a beginning of a design language we can build on,' added Raveh. 'Establishing it as a permanent line gives us and our customers the chance to see it evolve, adapt, and remain relevant throughout the years.' This approach not only allows product variety over time but also ensures each piece feels connected to the original vision. For SETT, the launch of SETT NOIR marks more than just the arrival of a new product. It marks step toward a more contemporary, luxury territory. While the brand continues to uphold its commitment to personalization and timeless appeal, this collection aims to carve out a space for a more modern, architectural expression of luxury. Positioned for a Strong September Launch Launching in September, the collection aligns perfectly with the fall fashion cycle, just as shoppers begin eyeing upscale accessories for gift-giving and self-styling. SETT NOIR will be available exclusively through the brand's official online store and select retailers, with early access previews offered to email subscribers and social media followers in the weeks leading up to the launch.

BARCELONA, Spain--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Wallbox (NYSE: WBX), a global leader in electric vehicle (EV) charging and energy management solutions, today announced two recent private placements of the Company's Class A ordinary shares for an aggregate of $15 million. The first is an investment of more than $9 million from the Government of Spain through the Spanish Society for Technological Transformation (SETT), which joins Wallbox's shareholder base as part of the Company's financing round from February 2025. Additionally, existing investors including Inversiones Financieras Perseo, S.L. (a subsidiary of Iberdrola), Orilla Asset Management, S.L., Wallbox CEO and Cofounder Enric Asunción, and others contributed more than $5 million through a second investment, reaffirming their continued support for Wallbox's growth and technological leadership.

With this investment, SETT supports Wallbox's leadership as a technological frontrunner in the energy transition.

In addition, SETT oversees two other financial tools designed to strengthen Spain's technological business ecosystem: PERTE Chip, focused on microelectronics and semiconductors, and the Spain Audiovisual Hub, which supports the digitalization and growth of the audiovisual sector. These investments strengthen Wallbox's balance sheet and provide the resources to accelerate the global adoption of its EV charging solutions, advance the digitalization of its solutions, and drive the development of cutting-edge technologies for smarter, more efficient energy management. 'The SETT's support reflects its confidence in our long-term vision and underscores Spain's strategic role in the global energy transition,' said Enric Asunción, CEO and co-founder of Wallbox.

Supported by public-sector backing and renewed commitment from strategic investors, Wallbox continues to advance its long-term strategy and growth plans. These funding rounds underscore a shared commitment from both the public and private sector to accelerate the transition toward a more sustainable, efficient, and digital mobility.
