DOLL UP SISTER – From Vintage to Kawaii Necklaces

DOLL UP SISTER – FROM VINTAGE TO KAWAII

Welcome to the world of Maiko Mouse! The charming little figure is the mascot and brand icon of DOLL UP SISTER. Modern, elegant and unconventional, the necklaces of this distinctive line captivate with expressiveness, lightness and a touch of gentle humour.

The distinctive signature in the necklace collection

In 2009, Sophia Kirsch-Wahl launched DOLL UP SISTER, a jewellery line that blends vintage charm with contemporary spirit.
At its heart are artfully designed necklaces, pendants and collier pieces created with elements produced using original steel press moulds dating from 1880 to 1960, inspired by the Victorian era and Art Nouveau. Each piece tells a small story, a homage to past eras reinterpreted for today’s jewellery enthusiasts.

These finely embossed brass components meet precious gemstones, antique Bohemian glass and lovingly modelled figurative elements. The modelled figures are first shaped in wax and then cast in jewellery brass or coloured resin, a defining characteristic of the collection.

The necklaces gain their distinctive radiance through galvanically refined surfaces finished with genuine 18-karat yellow or rose gold, or a soft black-grey rhodium layer.

From Vintage to Kawaii

„Kawaii“, translated from Japanese, means „cute, sweet, lovable“. As an aesthetic concept it represents playfulness, innocence and lightness – qualities expressed in the necklace designs of DOLL UP SISTER in a contemporary, artistic manner.

The nostalgic character of the collection merges with this playful influence, creating a unique style full of charm and quiet cheerfulness.
The iconic Maiko Mouse, the signature motif of the line, embodies this fusion and was honoured with the prestigious Inhorgenta Award in 2011.

Necklaces with personality

Here, emotion and artistic craftsmanship come together as inspirations from around the world flow into necklaces that impress with individuality and expressive character. The collections evoke longing, bring joy and invite jewellery lovers to be touched by a gentle note of dreamlike romance.
