Fall Collection 2011: SPICE CARAVAN

For fall, Katya has created SPICE CARAVAN, a warm and wonderful collection of jewelry and stones that will add a spark to your wardrobe, whether you're wearing this season's 40s fashion redux, nouveaux neutrals, or wild animal prints.

The stones in this collection will also complement fall's hot red fashion trend, a carryover over from spring and summer. 

New colors from KATYA include Bamboo which brings a warm, exotic flavor to the season; and Embers, a traditional autumnal tone which emanates the warmth of a glowing fire - the perfect panacea to the crisp fall air. Combine Embers with Ash for a classic look, or Bamboo with Paprika for extra spice!

Layer Cecil and Yoyo necklaces in Paprika and Embers, combined with our new Tanya earrings. 

Spice up neutrals like black, grey or taupe with Pam earrings and a Peace necklace in Cherry Red.

Or layer Alana and Yoyo necklaces along with a Collins bracelet and Orbit ring in Root Beer Float. 














Oh the sublime versatility of KATYA jewelry ~ the sparkly sterling silver and the endless choice of color. So join our Spice Caravan this autumn, and get your GLOW on!

KATYA Spring Collection 2011

April showers bring May flowers … and as we blossom into springtime, the air warms and colors begin to brighten, like tender flower buds that open slowly with sun’s caress to reveal their inner beauty … colors that stir spring awakening in our hearts and souls, inspired by earth and sea, by shadow and light, by exotic faraway places, by our own deepest desires.

KATYA’s spring and summer collection is inspired by all of these things, and more! Each collection - there are two for each season – has been personally created by Katya Wittenstein, a truly inspired artist and designer whose generous and creative spirit is imbued in each exquisitely styled and hand-crafted piece. 

You will surely find a bit of your own spirit in the colors and styles she has created for these collections … a bit of sky to brighten your day, a splash of sea to refresh, the blush of love, bright juicy colors for fun and whimsy … all combined with the sparkle and magnetism of sterling silver … isn’t it amazing how the dangle of an earring, the twist of a necklace, the jingle jangle of bracelets can make a girl feel oh so alive!

KATYA’s spring collections will be revealed in April, followed by the summer collections in May. These collections will be posted here, and on our Facebook page. 


In June, we will showcase these collections in the first KATYA fashion show in Sausalito, California, so save the date for this exclusive event. And if you can't join us live, we'll be posting video highlights on our Facebook and Youtube pages!
