{"title":"Kathy Lynn Mayeda","description":"\u003cp\u003eMayeda is an American jewelry designer known for her modernist sterling silver pieces, most produced during the late 20th century, particularly the 1970s through 1980s. Her work is typically signed “KLM” or “925 KLM,” indicating sterling silver construction and her designer mark. Mayeda’s designs are characterized by clean lines, sculptural forms, and a strong modernist influence, often featuring abstract or organic shapes. Her pieces include earrings, rings, and necklaces, many of which reflect the minimalist and artistic trends of mid- to late-century studio jewelry. While little formal biographical information is publicly documented about her life or training, her work is widely recognized in the vintage jewelry market and is often described as artisan-made, suggesting small-scale or studio production rather than mass manufacturing. Today, Kathy Lynn Mayeda’s jewelry is collected for its distinctive modernist aesthetic, quality sterling silver craftsmanship, and its representation of late 20th-century American designer jewelry.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"designer-kathy-lynn-mayeda-modernist-sterling-silver-links-necklace-1980s","title":"Designer Kathy Lynn Mayeda Modernist Sterling Silver Links Necklace 1980s","description":"\u003ch1 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eVintage Designer Kathy Lynn Mayeda Modernist Sterling Silver Links Necklace 1980s\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e          \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeasurements: 17\"L + 2\"L Extension x .75\"W (43.18 + 5.08cm x 1.91cm)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMarkings: KLM 925\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWeight: 26.9g\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStunning vintage sterling silver necklace by boutique artisan designer Kathy Lynn Mayeda.
