And on the right — bracelet, which releases the Studio of artist Damien Hirst in 2004. Different weave chain, but the idea and tablets — quite well it seems. Not even "Stairway to heaven", but just to talk about. It would seem.

Yes, and it is difficult to assume that Hirst no lawyers who figured out this situation in advance. On whose side justice — is also a big issue. Yes, indeed, the earliest mention of tablet bracelet Hirst, which I've found is for 2004. It is connected with the fact that Hirst's silver charm bracelet with Dating 2004 was sold at Christie's in 2012 for almost $8 000. But! Tablet series the artist made in the late 1980-х.
