KYYOTE: LOS ANGELES COLOR

I totally love the orange and fuchsia necklace I picked up from Kyyote, at this weekend's UNIQUE LA. The artist, Amanda Loos, was super sweet in talking about her quickly growing business. The only hard part was choosing which necklace to buy.

The pieces truly resonated with me (and definitely with a lot of other people stopping by the booth!). The colors and forms are evocative of the our bright, glowing city, and it's no surprise that the Los Angeles landscape deeply inspires the artist. According to Amanda, "The work is influenced by the order and integrity of geometry, and the interplay of positive and negative space. The resulting jewelry is delicate and playful, evoking endless summers clear blue skies, and Technicolor sunsets."

The collection is available at the Moca Design store and online. Each piece is handcrafted in the artist's Los Angeles studio. Photos courtesy of Kyyote.
