A legend of the deep, sculpted in metal.

The Kraken Pocket Square™ brings the mythical sea creature to life with curling tentacles and sculptural detail. Striking and unexpected, it adds a distinctive edge to classic tailoring.

Made to be remembered.

Jose Balli created the Original Metal Pocket Square™ as a new take on the classic fabric pocket square.

Each design is sculpted in solid metal and made to sit in your jacket pocket. No fabric. No folding. Just an original finishing touch made to be remembered.

A patented magnetic insert slides inside your jacket pocket, holding the Pocket Square™ securely in place at the perfect height.

Please note: Contains strong magnets. Keep away from pacemakers and other implanted medical devices.

Insert: 4.5" L × 3.5" W
Kraken: 1.5" L × 2.5" W

Available in Sterling Silver, Gilded Bronze and White Bronze.

Designed and handcrafted in New Orleans.

Free ground shipping on all orders.

Every Pocket Square™ is handcrafted and finished in our New Orleans studio. Please allow approximately 2–3 weeks for your piece to be made before shipping.

Each piece arrives in a Jose Balli box and pouch, ready to gift.

Two very different ideas of a pocket square

A folded square of cloth has been the default for a hundred years. Here's what changes when you stop folding it.

Every time you wear it

Refolded by hand, a little differently each time

Set once. It doesn't move again

By the end of the night

Wilts, slips, or works its way out of the pocket

Holds its shape—the magnetic mount keeps it upright

Upkeep

Dry clean, iron, replace once it stains or frays

Just use a polishing cloth. Solid metal doesn't fray or stain

What people notice

One of a thousand identical squares

A hand-carved, sculptural piece—the detail people ask about

Ten years from now

Long since replaced

Still on the jacket—solid sterling silver or bronze, built to be handed down

Same pocket. A completely different piece of your outfit.

Handmade in New Orleans

Not stamped. Carved.

Every Kraken Pocket Square begins with an original wax carving by Jose Balli. From there, it is cast in solid metal using the lost-wax process, then finished and polished by hand in our New Orleans studio.

It’s a process rooted in traditional jewelry making, used to create something entirely original.

Before You Buy

How does the magnetic mount work?

The Kraken Pocket Square has a patented magnetic insert built into the back. It sits in your jacket's breast pocket and attaches gently to the insert — no pin, no folding, no adjusting throughout the day.

Will it damage my jacket?

No. The magnet sits inside pocket rather than piercing it, so it's safe for suit jackets, sport coats, and tuxedos alike.

Is it safe if I have a pacemaker?

Because it contains magnets, we don't recommend it for individuals with pacemakers or other magnet-sensitive medical devices.

How do I clean and care for it?

Wipe it with our polishing cloth to keep it looking sharp. There's no dry cleaning, ironing, or refolding required — that's the point.

Is every piece really unique?

Each design starts as a hand-carved original, then is hand-cast and hand-polished in New Orleans. You won't find this shape on a rack anywhere else.

Does it come gift-ready?

Yes — every order arrives in its own branded green box with a matching green pouch, ready to hand over as-is for weddings, groomsmen gifts, or any occasion worth dressing up for.

What if it's not right?

You're covered by our 100-day return policy — plenty of time to wear it out and be sure.
