Edina Kiss’s Devil Earrings Preview Her Namesake Line for Couture
Edina Kiss’s lapis-laced Devil drops are only 1.5 inches long, but ruby and pink sapphire flashes give minimalist looks a sharp, sculptural edge.

Edina Kiss’s Devil drop earrings make a case for restraint with a little bite. Cast in 18-karat yellow gold, the pair hangs with 53.12 carats of lapis drops, then tightens the composition with just 0.12 carat total weight of ruby and 0.47 carat total weight of pink sapphire. At 1.5 inches long and 8.4 grams in total, the earrings have presence without the weight or visual sprawl of a full chandelier, which is exactly why they work so well for a pared-back wardrobe.
The appeal is in the contrast. Lapis brings that deep, saturated blue that reads almost architectural, while the yellow gold warms the edges and keeps the stone from feeling severe. The ruby and pink sapphire accents are small, but they matter: they interrupt the blue with flashes of red and rose, turning the earrings from merely bold into deliberately composed. Kiss calls her work sculptural jewelry that blurs the line between jewelry and art, and these drops carry that idea in miniature, with a quiet edge rather than a shout.
Their length is part of the intelligence. At 1.5 inches, the earrings fall far enough to register in motion, yet they stop short of overwhelming the face or competing with clothing. That makes them especially effective with clean necklines, a crewneck knit, a crisp shirting collar left open, a boatneck, or a strapless dress where the shoulder line is already doing some of the styling. For evening, they can replace a necklace entirely. For daytime, they do the work of a more layered look without adding anything else.

Kiss’s biography helps explain the balance. Born in Budapest and shaped by a life between Europe’s old-world elegance and California’s modern ease, she has built a visual language that feels refined but not precious. The brand also ties her perspective to Manhattan Beach, which gives the line a more contemporary finish than the name Devil might suggest. The drama is there, but it is controlled.
The earrings preview Kiss’s namesake line ahead of COUTURE, which runs May 27 through May 31, 2026, at Wynn Las Vegas. COUTURE positions itself as an exclusive, intimate market for designer fine jewelry and luxury timepieces, and that matters for an independent designer making a debut. Its Design Atelier has served as a springboard for emerging names, featuring 21 new faces in 2024, which is exactly why a pair like this can matter beyond its beauty: it introduces a designer with a clear point of view, in a room where retailers come looking for one.
