Let’s sparkle.….
Renowned jewelry designer and artist Neil Lane and KAY Jewelers unveiled their new and innovative collection, Neil Lane Artistry, during an unforgettable and star-studded Los Angeles event.
The soirée, held at at The House on Sunset in West Hollywood, celebrated the lab-created diamond collection and over a decade of partnership between the two, showcasing the creative artistry and vintage opulence Lane is famous for. Along with the complete collection, the designer’s treasured vintage jewels and artwork were also on display.
Alongside Lane himself, notable attendees included Bachelor Nation stars Becca Tilley and Deandra Kanu, Taylor Lautner’s wife, Tay Lautner, Tik Tok star Chase Mattson, “Big Brother” personality Taylor Hale, influencers Kellie Sweet and Luann Diez and more.
Lane—one of the most celebrated jewelry designers in the world—has worked with KAY Jewelers for 13 years to design collections that are inspired but also accessible to jewelry lovers across the country, not just the A-List.
From Hollywood to Paris, he is known for creating handmade pieces reminiscent of old-world glamour. Celebrities—such as Angelina Jolie, Jennifer Lawrence, Jennifer Garner, Rihanna, Taylor Swift, Salma Hayek, Kate Hudson and more—come to him when they are looking for unique, one-of-a-kind styles that could be donned on a red carpet or gifted to a significant other for an engagement. His designs have pushed industry boundaries and embraced innovation.
Lane began collecting vintage jewels at an early age, igniting his passion for creating timeless yet beautiful pieces. A true jack of all trades, Lane studied art for most of his life, having his first art show at 18 and even was featured at the Brooklyn Museum. While art and design are all intertwined, he chose to pursue his love for jewelry. This love led him down a path where he ultimately formed a partnership with KAY in 2010 to bring his glamorous, exclusive designs to everyone.
Available exclusively at KAY, the Neil Lane Artistry Collection includes eight independently certified lab-created diamond engagement rings and four wedding bands. An additional 23 engagement rings, 12 men’s wedding bands, and 12 ladies’ bands will be available later this Fall.
This is in extension to the existing Neil Lane collection which features bridal and fashion jewelry. All diamonds in the Neil Lane collection, including the lab-created diamonds in the Artistry collection, are responsibly sourced and conflict-free.
“As an artist, I find inspiration all over, and nothing gives me greater joy than innovating and trying something new,” said Lane, “And for the past 13 years, I’ve had the pleasure of working with KAY to design collections that are inspired but also accessible to jewelry lovers across the country, not just Hollywood. With my new Artistry collection at KAY, we now offer an even larger variety for consumers to find something they’ll love and cherish for a lifetime.”
The Neil Lane Artistry Collection is available online and at KAY stores now. The prices range from $799.99 to $18,499.99.
