It’s been a year since we’ve released our ROMA collection, a modern interpretation of ancient Roman architecture. As the end of this unusual and weird year finally approaches, we think it’s finally time to present something new.
The Atlas collection became a story about architecture created by nature on our planet. Every piece in this collection follows the contour lines of a specific location somewhere in the world. It is an imaginary journey and new experience, as well as a quest for self and the path of life, a recognition of your power. In that sense Atlas is a collection where every item is symbolic. It can become a reminder of the amazing places on earth, and also an anchor in critical situations.

There is almost no strict geometry, angles or symmetrical forms in the Atlas pieces. That’s the way our planet builds its relief, creating soft, sweeping lines and unexpected vertical drops. All the items are gold plated, and their matte surface naturally complements the unusual sandy texture.
As always, we do all we can to preserve the natural world. All of the materials for “Atlas” collection were mined and processed in a responsible way so the damage to ecosystem is minimised.

“The Atlas collection was born in the spring of 2020, a tough time when we all happened to be locked up. I move across the world quite a lot, and in that sense the new way of life without impressions of new places became simply unbearable.
Desperate, I started travelling to the most beautiful corners of the world with the help of online maps. To the places I had visited earlier, or dream of exploring one day. I was studying the relief of different areas, and at some point I realised that I keep focusing not only on the peculiar contour lines, but also on the feelings I get from associations with these places. That’s when the idea about a collection first struck me, a collection inspired by the original, untouched, natural, and not human-made art, unlike it was with ROMA and Modernism.
Experience of this kind of places is always special — wider, purer, deeper somehow. Every item in this collection became my personal emotional experience, a metaphor of the feel of travelling. But their symbols are all different, since the locations are unlike each other. I think that in this collection every woman will find her piece of jewelry and her power.”
Leta is committed to completely zeroing its carbon footprint by 2028. This will be achieved by eliminating paper, reducing energy consumption in manufacturing and stores, using electric transport for delivery, and participating in sustainable forest management programs.
In our collections we mainly focused on amber, but we feel that in the future we definitely would like to try new ideas and combinations. Amber will still remain the cornerstone of our jewelry story, but today it will have a new name, not limited to its «amber» side. Leta is the same jewelry pieces with an architectural history, the same neat style and the same impeccable service, the same website and the same best team in the world. But with a new name.
Over the past 10 years, Garage has developed from an exhibition space to a valued artistic institution. When we discovered that the Museum creates an endowment for its own sustainable development, the decision was made. Until 2024 Leta will monthly transfer a portion of the funds from our income to the Garage Endowment Fund.
Last summer we launched Leta FM to share compilations of our favorite music that was playing in our showroom in Moscow. Since then, the project has grown and become less formal at the same time. Together with original mixes being released once per season, we decided to share with you any music that inspires us.
