"Nobody sees a flower really
it is so small
we haven't time
and to see takes time,
like to have a friend
takes time."
Georgia
The blue lotus, the heavenly nymphaea, misterious flower of dreams, desire
and fertility.
Nympha Caerulea
Double ring sculpted in sterling silver, crowned with three natural blue sapphires, designed and handcrafted between Bali and Bangkok.
From conception to the careful selection of each stone, stone setting and curving of each single petal, seven people participated in this piece that took one year to come to life.
Multigenerations of craftsmanship and new techniques come through for the quality and unique personality of each one of this 30 piece edition.
Our silver is left untreated so it can age naturally, as we do.
Amanece en una isla que llaman de los dioses, todo está en silencio, el sol se va asentando en el cielo, la luna aún no se despide del todo, como cada mañana han llovido flores del cielo y el césped está lleno de ellas… Un cosquilleo me hace bajar la vista a esa zona de mi brazo. Un par de hormigas, caminan arriba y abajo algo desorientadas...
Que será lo que buscan recorriendo mi piel, los lunares no sirven de alimento, creo, las dejo ir hasta cansarse, la naturaleza en esta isla de diosas es benigna, algo que ya intuía entonces y que recordaría del todo mucho más tarde el día que una cobra vino a verme a los ojos. Libre de hormigas, me levanto y dejo mis pies sentir el césped y la tierra que lo sostiene aun húmeda de
rocío, recojo algunas flores, una detrás de la oreja, las otras para adornar mi altar, el cabecero de mi cama, el alféizar de la ventana.
¿Qué mensajes me traerán hoy? ¿Dónde termina mi cuerpo y empieza el suyo?
Esa y otras mil preguntas.
Y el deseo. De retorno a casa. Al mundo material, a la tierra, al cuerpo, a la vida chiquita y grande que está dentro y al rededor de mi.
¿Y si no hay respuesta?
Se hace, pieza a pieza, al ir tejiendo dando forma a un ajuar.
¿Y si la búsqueda no es más que el
recuerdo?
Re-cordar : un arte de pasar muchas veces ese hilo, hilo de plata, de oro, de lino, de pigmento, de caricia, por el corazon, y atravesarnos la piel.
La vida.
El susurro del alma y el cuerpo.
Jazmín
An earing to channel our sweet knowing. Pink tourmaline for extra tenderness, or the yellow shine of our solar identity.
Designed and crafted between Cádiz and Bangkok.
These pieces where brought to life by weaving together generations of craftsmanship and contemporary techniques. Six men and women took part in each part of the process, taking over eight months to sprout.
Our silver is left untreated so it can age naturally, as we do.
Ya se queda la sierra
triste y callada.
A flower that exists only in the wildest realms of imagination, as if unearthed from our own Garden of Eden.
Eden
Cast in solid recycled sterling silver, this one-of-a-kind piece appears as though it has been unearthed from a mythical culture, a forbidden relic, ancient in feeling, full power, consciously and ethically made.
A midsummer night's dream in the Garden of Eden, four months, two three-generation artisans and two designers, joined forces to bring her to life.
Sculpted in solid sterling silver, entirely handcrafted.
Untreated silver to preserve its purity, it will develop a natural patina over time and can be brought back in time through care.
Long before we find the words,
we speak through our bodies.
Since ancient times, maybe even before we had words to express, we, or our great great great grandmothers and fathers took pieces of stone, sea shells, bones, pierced them and engraved them, shaping expression, exchanging value, anchoring power.
Objects, a universal language of symbolds materialized.
Connecting us with ourselves, with our loved ones, across generations, across communities, beyond worlds even.
Adorning our bodies,
a most human gesture.
Useless for survival, essential for our lives, such as poetry, art, beauty, dance, tenderness, prayer or devotion.Allows for transmutation, embodiment of a feeling, a role, materializing a connection, making space for a hope to land in our worlds. To make the unseen physical, to ourselves and the world around us.

who we are,
where we belong,
what we honour,

what we survived,
or what we hope for.

¿puede un objeto anclar lo invisible?
¿la re-evolución ser preciosa?
A Y Y A
es una casa creativa, un laboratorio vivo. We craft from desire and environmental sovereignity.
Arte, sensorialidad, y circularidad para explorar lo esencial a través de joyas, plantas, rituales, experiencias.
Volver a sentir el alma, acariciar belleza y poder.
Tocar, vestir, vivir, compartir, a placer.
Hacer de lo exquisito una forma de vida consciente.
¿Es la belleza imperfecta, lo humano, lo íntimo un acto politico de resistencia? ¿Es la intuición, el duende, el arte, un poder que todas llevamos dentro?
La re-colección y creación de AYYA acaricia estas invocaciones. El amor, el goce, la reverencia a lo natural. La maravilla hecha materia. Un pequeño y precioso gran regalo. Como la espada escalibur espera a su Arturo, cada pieza se reencuentra así con su ama.
Cada creacion una colaboración de artistas, artesanas y creadoras de distintos orígenes para dar forma a piezas, rituales y encuentros que conectan arte, naturaleza y cuerpo.
La danza al ritmo natural
entre pasado y futuro,
diálogo entre la materia y su espíritu,
humanidad divina.
AYYA is an experiment. an investment. a wish.
for new ways of living.
We create in tune with nature, artists, artisans, land carers and people that share a love for nature, craft and the
divine.
Ethical materials, energetic alignmnet, collaborative environment, abundant payment, and natural ryhtms across every part of the process is essential. Giving back to nature too, so 1% of every piece sold returns to the earth by funding nature conservation. The first re-collection supports a regenerative cacao farmers in Chiapas.
We are a living ecosystem, grounded in collaboration.

Tunjung for grounding spirits’ whispers, Yowin for bringing back his family ancient wisdom, to Mathawan and Nampeet for translating drawings into three dimensional bits and the whole Ten Fingers team for building an artisan studio with such love for the craft and for the people. mamá por sus bolsitas de lino tan cuidadas. A Carmen por el arte y la voz. François for taking the rare contradiction of a print first website and making a jewel of it.
To the parrot and the owl and the snake, for the not so silent guarding of the birthing process. A las abuelas que nos enseñaron el placer y la transmisión de las cosas. bien hechas y duraderas.
A las flores, todas, las ancestras
