A stone within another stone: the technique of inlaying with different materials is ancient and is the one adopted for many jewels by Kirsty Stone (a name, a destiny), Canadian designer of the Retrouva\u00ed<\/strong> brand, based in Los Angeles. The designer moved to the United States shortly after graduation and co-founded an architectural firm with a friend, before choosing the jewelry. Perhaps also for this imprinting the geometries of the jewels are so precise. The name of the brand needs an explanation: it is a word inspired by the pronunciation of Retrovailles, a French term that indicates something that reconnects to the past. In this case the inlay technique.<\/p>\n

But not only that: the designer has a penchant for vintage objects and her jewels, even if they have a modern shape, often allude to something that is distant in time, such as chevalier-style rings or pendants that look like cameos. For example, compass rings seem to indicate nostalgia for places elsewhere. Retrouva\u00ed jewelry is often made with unusual stones. Like rhodochrosite, lapis lazuli and turquoise welcome different types of gems, such as morganite, and create a pleasant contrast. Often with a contrast between a matte and a transparent surface.<\/p>\n
