Taking its cues from the Ryan NYP Spirit of St. Louis, the plane used on the first solo flight across the Atlantic, our Daphne collection takes you on an inspirational flight of the imagination. The gold and black fins on this dynamic design are inspired by the radial engine that powered the aircraft on its record setting flight. Fun fact: the Daphne name is taken from a photo of a woman named Daphne observing a placard honoring the event. Smithsonian Collaboration. Hand-forged Tapered Oval Tubing.
