Issa Rae Designs New Jewelry Collection With Cast
Issa Rae shows off her creative juices as she launches a brand new 22-piece collaboration with jewelry brand Cast.
Titled Braeve CollectionThe collaboration features pieces crafted from 14k gold, sterling silver, black onyx, and an exclusive collection of Cast lab-grown diamonds. Created to reflect the actress’s personal style while also emphasizing the shared values of artistic design, quality, and flexibility between her and Cast, Rae uses the gathering to raise her on a regular basis workwear.
“My everyday style is very simple—jeans, T-shirts, Chucks—so this jewelry is my way of dressing,” says Rae he said .
“It’s my way of showing that I fit into certain spaces, it’s like my effort in the office… I’ll put my hair in a bun and I won’t put on makeup, but I’ll put on jewelry and think, ‘I tried.'”
Contemporary and versatile, the gathering caters to each accessory lover, with prices starting from $250 to $5,900. Pieces include gold earrings with diamond centers, a gold pendant necklace and matching armor ring, amongst many others.
Rae’s favorite piece in the gathering is the Braeve pendant necklace, admired for its uniqueness and incredible versatility. The pendant features the Cast Signature Flip Innovation, which allows for 3 different looks: an all-gold side, an all-onyx side, and a half-gold, half-onyx option.
“I use it as a mood ring or necklace, and I say if it’s on the black side, then ‘don’t mess with me,’ if it’s on the gold side, then I’m approachable, and if it’s in the middle, then you know, I’m even,” Rae said jokingly.
The collaboration was a seamless one, as Rae is a natural fan of the brand, and the brand’s jewelry has been seen on the September cover of , on the American Black Film Festival, in addition to earlier this yr on the 96th Academy Awards and the 2024 Emmy Awards.
“I deeply admire Cast’s ethos, their unique approach to jewelry collaboration and focus on sustainability,” said Rae. “I was honored to work with them on the Braeve collection to create timeless, elegant and bold pieces. I loved experimenting with shapes, textures and silhouettes and can’t wait for everyone to experience the collection.”
