Carolily Up Close

Stainless steel jewelry has become increasingly popular in recent years, due to its durability, affordability, and wide range of designs. However, for those with metal allergies, choosing the right jewelry can be a challenge. 

As we bring our Black Friday Cyber Monday promotion to a close, we are overjoyed and thankful for the support you continue to show us. Like many other small businesses, this has been a tough financial year for us. Black Friday has allowed us to give thanks to our beloved community, attract new clients, and improve cash flow during our most expensive season. It is also an opportunity for you to save on a piece of jewelry you may have had your eye on for awhile.

With all that being said, this was the last "traditional" Black Friday promotion we will ever run and we'd like to explain why.

If it feels like the holidays have started earlier this year, it's because they have. We are going to take the pressure off as best we can! Our new holiday jewelry gift guides are segmented by price and style to make selecting the perfect piece stress free. Take a peek at some of our favourites below.

Our handcrafted jewelry is designed with self expression in mind! These pieces are meant to be an extension of your personality and sense of style.

While there is no right or wrong way to wear jewelry, we do need inspiration some days! Below, we have styled our Violette Necklace three different ways, using the same base outfit.

When someone asks if a European Crystal Pearl is "real", they typically mean is the pearl naturally occurring. Before we get into answering that question directly, let's first make sure we are clear on what European Crystal Pearls are.

We have had a longtime love affair with European crystal pearls. Their luster, durability, and wide range of colours and sizes have made them an absolute joy to work with since our inception.

But, what exactly are European crystal pearls? Are they the same as freshwater pearls? No, they are not. Let's discuss the differences!

I started noticing my grey hair when I was 45 years old. And I loved it.

I felt beautiful, like my hair had a natural sparkle to it, and that it represented the privilege aging truly is. I never thought about dying it. And that put me at odds with society’s expectation of what an aging women should do. 

I started to receive comments from strangers and friends alike. These comments didn’t sting so much as they frustrated me.

I was and am happy with my grey hair. And I want to help you be happy with yours too.
