Pete Doherty is venturing into the world of metal by launching his own range of luxury jewellery.

The Libertines co-frontman has launched a range called Albion Trinketry which he has co-designed with professional jeweller Hannah Martin.

According to trade magazine Professional Jeweller, the range will include 15 different lines including cufflinks, rings, necklaces and watch chains and will be "antique inspired."

The singer, guitarist and songwriter will also be taking on bespoke commissions.

Apparently, Ms Martin was identified as a Hot 100 Trendsetter by Professional Jeweller earlier this year.

However, Doherty insists he is the main creative force behind the range, with the pieces said to reflect the former Libertines' "style of personalising his antique finds."

Albion Trinketry will initially be sold in Joseph stores in London and Paris and an official website is set to go live later this month.

Meanwhile, Doherty's old sparring partner and bandmate Carl Barat released his autobiography 'Threepenny Memoir: The Lives of a Libertine' on Sept. 30, and his debut self-titled solo album on Oct. 4, both to generally positive reviews.
