Yves Klein Blue Necklace
The Brand: I. Ronni Kappos jewelry is handmade in Los Angeles from an evolving collection of vintage German glass, lucite, and other collectible materials. The beads, found on expeditions made by Ronni and her twin sister, were pressed during the 1920–60’s by craftsmen whose meticulous techniques yielded unusual colors and shapes. Some of the rarer stock has 24K gold around the edges. Variations in the beads add character to the pieces and make them truly unique.
Description: Ronni’s work is tactile, happy and graphic. She knits and stitches and engineers each piece to become just what she dreams it to be. The Yves Klein Blue Necklace, named after the artist himself, is a very cheerful and sophisticated piece. Klein saw monochrome painting as “an open window to freedom, as the possibility of being immersed in the immeasurable existence of color.” This piece is truly a window to the sky.
Details: German vintage glass beads, 14K gold fill findings and chain, 18 inches in length, pendant drops 2 1/4 inches
A Note From Erika: Such a great dynamic color. Ronni’s strength is in her use of colors. I am also continually amazed by her ability to be so creative while adhering to the constraints of only using vintage beads. In our jewelry case, this piece really pops!
