ABOUT

Akute is a Los Angeles-based jewelry brand focused on keeping jewelry manufacturing alive in the USA.

Founded by twin brother and sister Robert and Melanie D'Andrea, the two Chicago natives prioritize quality over quantity; opting to focus on ethical and sustainable manufacturing processes rather than compromising company values for higher margins. 

Design Language

At Akute, we speak the language of visual personality - our mission is to create pieces that further express elements of who you are. Each Akute piece evokes tones of strength, precision, and refinement - all of which read stronger and more effortless as your bond with it grows. 

Designed for a timeless eye, we lean into creating our own world of shape and texture while maintaining a sense of simplicity. Blending sharp and angular edges with the softness of a curve allows each piece to represent our own inner complexities.
