Edina Kiss Debuts Sculptural Devil Earrings as Wearable Art

Edina Kiss has turned a devilish motif into something unexpectedly wearable: a pair of sculptural drop earrings in 18k yellow gold, set with 53.12 carats of lapis, 0.12 carats of ruby and 0.47 carats of pink sapphire. At 1.5 inches long and 8.4 grams total, the Devil earrings have the presence of a statement piece, but their proportions and clean vertical line keep them from slipping into costume territory.

The real design move is asymmetry. Kiss also sells the Angelfish drops separately, encouraging the kind of mismatched styling that makes a bold jewel feel like part of an edited wardrobe rather than a one-time flourish. The matching pair is set in 18k yellow gold with 42.4 carats of pink opal drops, 0.47 carats of diamonds, 0.15 carats of cognac diamonds, 0.17 carats of pink sapphire and 0.16 carats of blue sapphire. Together, the two designs read less like a novelty and more like wearable sculpture with a point of view.

That sensibility fits Kiss’s own biography and the language of her new line. Born in Budapest and shaped by a life between Europe’s old-world elegance and California’s modern ease, she has described her work as jewelry that blurs the line between adornment and art. A 2026 launch announcement framed the collection as wearable works of art, built from sculptural silhouettes that are refined and whimsically irreverent. In practice, that means the pieces are designed to do more than sparkle. They are meant to signal taste, confidence and a willingness to wear something with artistic intent every day.

The timing matters too. Kiss is introducing the collection during one of the jewelry trade’s biggest buying windows, with Luxury scheduled for May 27 to June 1, 2026, at The Venetian in Las Vegas, and JCK set for May 29 to June 1, 2026, at The Venetian Expo. The line is also already moving beyond the trade-show conversation: Marissa Collections is merchandising both the Devil and Angelfish earrings online, a sign that the collection is finding its way into retail before the season’s major fair traffic even peaks.

For readers weighing whether a statement earring deserves a place in an everyday collection, the answer here lies in versatility through design. Kiss has not made a demure earring and called it modern; she has made a collectible object that can be worn one side at a time, mixed, or matched depending on the mood. That is the new logic of wearable art: not quiet jewelry, but jewelry with enough structure and personality to become part of a real rotation.
