Gaboratory Jewelry by 925rocksilver

What is the Gothic Look?

The classic silver gothic look is created by a putting together a potent mix of leather clothing and heavy sterling silver jewelry. It is often described as the biker look, the gothic look, the punk look or the rock n roll look. Whatever you wish to call it, the biker look is a historical phenomenon which runs deep in post-hippie American fasion. The idea it creates often consists of a rugged, handsome, individualistic & masculine man riding a high CC chopper and navigating endless and lonely country roads into the sunset with a violent agenda often with an element of heroism. It is one which stirs the imagination and inspires awe, admiration & wonder. Today, the biker look has been popularized amongst musicians, bikers, biker enthusiasts, rock n roll enthusiasts and other cultural trendsetters wishing to express new age fashion via the snazzy, head-turning outfits they wear. This brief discourse is a tribute to Gabor Nagy: the fashion visionary who spearheaded fashion from the ashes of the hippie era.

Who is Gabor Nagy, and what is Gaboratory?

The Gabor Nagy house of design, born towards the end of the 21st century, was started by the late Gabor Nagy, & rightfully takes its place as the very first pioneer & granddaddy of  the gothic biker look. Long beforethe existence of Chrome Hearts, Bill Wall Leather, Room 101, Nagual, SoulFetish & other top gothic jewelry brands came into existence, the man who started the entire biker jewelry craze sold his crazy, groundbreaking ideas to the fashion world & got the world sold on the leather-silver gothic look.

Gabor Nagy the Visionary

Gabor Nagy of Gaboratory was nothing less than a bona fide a fashion visionary; one way ahead of his time. Going head-on against established concepts of jewelry as small, delicate looking accessories worn exclusively by affluent, upper class ladies, Gabor Nagy founded Gaboratory and developed , which shocked designers the world over. Taking the shape of heavy, chunky sterling silver pieces bearing loudly anarchistic gothic carved-in motifs, biker jewelry was anything but delicate or feminine. In stark contrast against traditional jewelry which inspired ideas of societal class and conformity, Gaboratory’s biker jewelry created the gravely different image of the infamous renegade outlaw biker. It became immediately obvious  that Gaboratory’s gothic jewelry was not something common buyers of jewelry (the socialites) would be quick to adopt.

Defying all odds, Gabor Nagy single-handedly brought about a fashion renaissance which brought jewelry for the first time into the realm of mens’ wear. Trendsetters, celebrities & and other leading icons quickly took to the intricate designs & solid feel Gaboratory’s biker jewelry had, & purchased Gabor Nagy’s jewelry pieces in sizeable numbers. Fans naturally caught wind quickly of the changing fashion trends, and promptly followed suit.

What makes Gaboratory’s success even more impressive is the oft-forgotten fact that Gabor pursued his novel ideas in a time when diamonds had sent metal jewelry out of fashion. Sterling silver was at that time treated as a mere complement to the diamond, the star accessory which had successfully dominated the world of jewelry since the phenomenally successful advertising campaign by De Beers in the 1950s. Gabor Nagy knew better. He saw that unlike the cold, rigid diamond whose surfaces could accommodate no pattern other than rigid cuts and angles, the surface of sterling silver could be subjected to rigorous creative input and be turned into unique pieces of artwork imbued with the spirit of the artist. He sought to restore the rightful place of sterling silver in the realm of jewelry, & he succeeded in real style.

Gabor Nagy’s global footprint

Gabor’s sterling silver fashion created a global impact which spread well beyond the shores of USA. Within a year of Gabor’s revolution, Japanese tourists first set eyes on Gabor Nagy’s biker jewelry in downtown LA, fell in love with the intricate artwork and imported an equally intense thirst for sterling silver gothic jewelry across the Atlantic to Asia. Today, the fashion craze has spread also to mainland Europe, particularly in France & Germany. In Asia, (Taiwan, Korea and Japan) an entire new culture of rebellion has emerged to snuff out the stuffy and stiffly hierarchical traditional South Asian culture.

Although Gabor Nagy passed on several years ago, his inspiration continues to inspire designers all over the world. His Gaboratory school of design spawned an entire generation of gifted students successful in their own right, including but not limited toincluding Bill Wall and Travis Walker, the owners of the established BWL and Double Cross luxury brand. Richard Stark of Chrome Hearts, arguably the largest designer label in the realm of gothic jewelry, gleaned much of his inspiration from Gabor Nagy's concepts, & today's classic Chrome Hearts designs arguably have their roots in Gabor Nagy's early work.
