IVI's pitch has always been Italian factory craftsmanship applied to pieces meant for daily wear rather than special occasions, a gap Kyratzi says she noticed while working in Los Angeles before she ever met her manufacturing partner. The shapes here trace back to that original Slot collection logic: simple, stackable, built to be worn without much thought.

A California designer and a third-generation Tuscan metalworking family is an odd but effective pairing, and it shows in jewelry that feels more considered than most fast-turnaround fashion jewelry without pretending to be fine jewelry either. Nearly ten years in, IVI is still mostly repeating the idea that made the Slot collection work, which is a reasonable strategy when the idea was good.
