What we love about Emmanuelle Koffi
Content creator Emmanuelle Koffi moved to France at the age of 17 after living in several areas of Africa throughout her childhood. Following business school in Lyon, Emmanuelle moved to Paris, where she felt for the first time that she was free to be who she truly was. Her Instagram profile @emmanellek_ was born from a need to express her newly found confidence through style. Paintings, films, and books bring her daily inspiration, along with staying present and noticing the beauty in her surroundings.
Embedded in Emmanuelle’s content are themes of juxtaposition such ‘strong and soft’ and ‘loving yet wild.’ conveying the many different facets to her personality.
Our collaboration
Emmanuelle Koffi believes life is about constantly creating, whether it’s her persona, her wardrobe or her business. She refuses to be put into a box and her style is continually evolving, encapsulating a mix of cultures and experiences. Much of what makes Emmanuelle so unique is her eclectic background that comes from living in two very different parts of the world. Her African and European sides blend in her to create a richness to her personality and a style unlike any other.
At THE RAYY, we value the beauty that comes from blending cultures and juxtaposing ideas. We’re firm believers that the different facets of who we are reveal something truly unique in every individual. Our designs delicately balance science and art to create a world of possibility, where the only limit is the imagination.

For this special collaboration, Emmanuelle chose to customize the FACETS pendant and cuff in recycled 18k gold, a piece she can wear in the sun to reveal her hidden portrait.
So, what’s Emmanuelle's hidden message?
Emmanuelle Koffi believes she carries each of the four elements within her, and each one emerges depending on the time in her life. But the ‘HOT as the sun’ portrait by Blanca Miró Skoudy, inspired by the fire element, is the symbol she chose to represent her passionate love of life that never burns out. “I’m most inspired by things that have to power to make me feel a positive emotion. It can be something small, a piece of art or someone I admire.”
