MOYA @ Disajn Magazine 2011

Deze journalist had iets te veel Dry Martini’s gedronken, want Erykah Badu heeft (vooralsnog) geen ring van mij.

Sometimes it will be in contact with the designer in a funny way. Eline van der

Laag I heard about through a friend of hers who works as a bartender

and served me a wonderful Dry Martini and asked what I was doing

with. Eline designs and manufactures its jewelry and objects under the name Moya,

which is a play on the Dutch Mooi yes, that means “beautiful Yes”. The rings in

MOYA often include a technical surprise. One example is the bracelet that

also is a tuning fork and emit a perfect A on the 440H Sting, Jill Scott, Cassandra

Wilson, Bobby Mc Ferrin, Pat Metheny, Kurt Elling, Candy Dulfer, has a bracelet

from Moya. According to her friend became Erykah Badu so fond of one of the rings

she was wearing that she nagged until she got it.
