Hellooo....<br />

<strong>Yve</strong> de pè is the name a friend gave me a long time ago. <strong>Yve</strong> is Evy backwards and<br />

de pè means javanese in that friend his own language. I since then adopted it as<br />

my artist name. I would describe myself as humble, patient and playfull: love to<br />

love and love to dance. My greatest aspiration is to keep blossoming with<br />

contentment and therefore be a better person, wife, mother, friend and as an<br />

artist this will only result in many more beautiful creations.<br />

“Welcome to the Bruya club !” is how I welcome new customers, bruya is<br />

Surinamese for going wild about something haha... people do get bruya of my<br />

designs. The technique I use is called wire wrapping which is one of the oldest<br />

techniques for making handmade jewelry without soldering or heating.<br />

My jewelry which is inspired by ancient wisdom is a fusion of gemstones,<br />

sweetwater pearls and a wide range of other materials.<br />

Each piece I design is unique and has a story behind it because each stone wraps<br />

“itself” differently and my hands just go with the flow. I’m very passionate in what<br />

I do and every time I make a new design I do my best to surpass myself. Over the<br />

years <strong>Yve</strong>’s signature style has evolved into a colorful brand of wearable art.<br />

I hope you enjoy the selection I made to showcase my work in this portfolio but<br />

please keep in mind...it can cause some serious bruyaness !! haha<br />

Always do what you love and love what you do !<br />

Only then will you be true to yourself !<br />

Brasa....(means hug in Surinamese)<br />
