In the heart of Princeton New Jersey, the renovations on Witherspoon Street have become The Paul Robeson Center for the Arts. The project’s Honorary Chairman and designer Michael Graves describes it as a “landmark project for Princeton which will make an enormous contribution to the cultural life of our community.”

Witherspoon measures 40mm in diameter (1.6″) and is made of stainless steel, complimented by a 20mm leather band (3/4″) with colored stitching.
