Jam Out With Sorellina’s Jimi Hendrix-Inspired Jewels
The “Playlist: Electric Dreams” collection brings lyrics from the musician’s song, “Little Wing,” to life through fine jewelry.
Sorellina’s newest addition to the “Playlist” collection focuses on Jimi Hendrix’s music, with his lyricism inspiring the motifs central to “Electric Dreams.”
New York—Sorellina has launched the continuation of last year’s “Playlist” collection. The new offering, titled “Electric Dreams,” focuses on a different musician.
For “Playlist: Electric Dreams,” the designers looked to Jimi Hendrix and Electric Lady Studios—the famous recording studio in New York City commissioned by the artist in 1968—as the muse of its new pendants, charms, necklaces, earrings, bracelets, and rings.
The collection focuses on Hendrix’s song “Little Wing,” turning his poetic lyricism and dreamlike imagery into fine jewelry featuring delicate wings, celestial motifs, and vibrant hues.
It “captures the raw energy, ethereal beauty, and boundless creativity that defined an era of musical revolution,” said the brand.

It “captures the raw energy, ethereal beauty, and boundless creativity that defined an era of musical revolution,” said the brand.
“Jimi Hendrix wasn’t just a musician; he was a force of nature, a poet who painted with sound,” said Nicole Carosella, co-founder of Sorellina.
“With Electric Dreams, we wanted to translate that same transcendence into jewelry—something that feels as limitless and expressive as his music.”
The 18-karat yellow gold and diamond “Peace Coin” pendant features a peace dove motif on the front and butterflies, zebras, and moonbeams on the reverse, elements from the lyrics of “Little Wing” ($7,300)
A “Guitar” pendant with 10.70 carats of carved black mother-of-pearl, sapphires, and diamonds ($8,700)
The “Peace Dove” pendant depicts a dove in the word “peace” with mother-of-pearl and diamond accents in 18-karat yellow gold ($8,700)
The “Peace Flower” earrings with 9.45 carats of pink tourmaline in 18-karat yellow gold ($12,800)
An “Electric Dreams” cord necklace featuring a diamond on an 18-karat yellow gold bead that is strung on a yellow leather cord ($3,900)
A one-of-a-kind “Mushroom” charm centering on a 0.29-carat Ethiopian opal set in 18-karat yellow gold with 0.43 carats of diamond accents ($4,500)
The “Electric Dreams” band featuring a 3.20-carat emerald in 18-karat yellow gold ($5,900)
The one-of-a-kind “Lucy” necklace in 18-karat yellow gold with blue sapphire, yellow sapphire, emerald, orange sapphire, pink sapphire, blue topaz, amethyst, garnet, mother-of-pearl, and diamonds ($75,000)
The 18-karat yellow gold designs in the collection are set with a variety of colored gemstones, from amethyst to mother-of-pearl, pink tourmaline, green quartz, and diamonds.
The one-of-a-kind “Mushroom” charms, a highlight of the offering, are available in five variations, with pink tourmaline or opal and diamond accents.
The brand debuted new leather cords as well, with signature Sorellina clasps that “bring a fresh, rock-and-roll edge to the line, offering a modern yet timeless way to wear these musical talismans,” said the brand.
The Playlist: Electric Dreams collection debuted earlier this month at Couture and launched on Sorellina’s website on June 17.
It is an evolution of the initial collection, which focused on David Bowie and his character Ziggy Stardust. The hero piece was the “Cassette Tape” pendant, which won a 2024 Couture Design Award in the “Best in Innovation” category.
With the new Electric Dreams pieces, Sorellina said wearers can “experience the magic of Hendrix through a new medium—one that gleams, glows, and tells a story with every exquisite detail.”
The complete Playlist collection is available on the Sorellina website.
