Ancient forms. Modern wear. Handcrafted in New Orleans.
Summer 2026 is about less, worn better. The pieces defining this season share a common thread — they're rooted in craft, texture, and form. At Iris 1956, we've been making them for years.
01 — Sculptural Gold
Deliberate over delicate. This summer, gold is about form — rings that read as small sculptures, worn with intention.
The Halo Rope Ring is exactly this.
02 — Organic Texture
Raw, imperfect, touched by hand. The beauty of a surface that couldn't be machine-made.
The Goddess Medallion Necklace — cast in silver with flashes of gold, shaped like something pulled from the earth. Ancient and completely now.
03 — Fluid Forms
Jewelry that moves with the body. That catches light. That you forget you're wearing.
The Thin Loved Herringbone Snake Chain — flat gold that drapes against the collarbone like it was made there. The Flow Ring carries the same energy on the hand.
04 — Mixed Metals
The rule is retired. Brass, silver, gold — worn together, unified by form.
Iris 1956's range was built for this kind of layering.
05 — Elevated Simplicity
The quietest trend is the most lasting: one piece, worn well, every day.
Handcrafted in New Orleans. Designed for the long wear.
