Spotted! L’ile aux Ashby
THE DESIGN
Skulls, red hearts and crosses are just some of the flights of fancy that make up the quirky jewelry designs of Rayson Tan, founder of the L’ile aux Ashby label.
“My accessories portray my invention of recipes for the inner soul. I select the ingredients for their aesthetic flavor, playing with shapes and forms, mixing the hard with the soft, juxtaposing the quirky with the vintage, the old with the new and sometimes a little bit outlandish behavior to evoke the emotions of life. My accessories are designed as extensions of one’s self and not just as vacuous decorations to be worn mindlessly. They are hand-crafted to enhance your personality; staying distinctively edgy, yet stylishly wearable.”
THE DESIGNER
Rayson Tan is an Alumni of LASALLE SIA College of The Arts with a major in Communication Design. He believes that design is the welcome mist of air into our environment. “Design envelopes us, inspires us and creates an impact in our daily routine. As I have a strong desire to create the best designs that will hopefully revolutionize the way people perceive their surrounding, my intentions are to unlock eyes and provoke thought. I am often spellbound with the world around me that is where I find my inspiration.”
Rayson’s accessories can be found at Déjà Vu Vintage, Eggthree, The Lawn, Dulcetfig, 41 Haji Lane and TheShop.
