The FU Vision.

Founded by Nicolas van Heule, a former finance lawyer with a passion for design and craftsmanship, Fils Unique, meaning “only child” in French, challenges the notion that a dress code means sacrificing personal style and individuality.


Nicolas' journey from Brussels to New York, from law to luxury craftsmanship, and his own experiences as an only child, are all reflected in the brand's ethos of embracing individuality and challenging the status quo.


Handcrafted Excellence.

At Fils Unique, we believe in the power of handcrafted luxury. Our pieces are made in New York City from the finest materials, like Argentium, and each cufflink is meticulously hand-painted by artisans who also restore antique Fabergé eggs, ensuring that no two pairs are ever truly identical. Our dedication to craftsmanship is evident in every detail, from the design to the final polish.


Distinctive Design.

Our designs are for those who dare to defy the mundane. We draw inspiration from diverse sources, including architecture, graphic design, and tattoo iconography, to create pieces that are both aesthetically pleasing and thought-provoking.  


Ethical and Sustainable Luxury.

We believe that true luxury does not come at the expense of the planet. Fils Unique is committed to eco-friendly practices, using 100% recycled and traceable silver. Our products are handmade in New York, ensuring not only the highest quality but a minimized environmental impact.


Innovation and Personalization.

Fils Unique leverages cutting-edge technology, including 3D printing, to offer unparalleled customization options. Customers can personalize their cufflinks with engraved initials, monograms, or custom-made designs in their choice of colors and metals. For those seeking the ultimate in distinction, we provide a fully bespoke service, crafting one-of-a-kind pieces that reflect their unique style and personality.
