Orna Lalo: Gentle Mechanics of the</3

La Bella Vita is happy to present selections from the Bulgarian artist Orna Lalo‘s new collection, The Gentle Mechanics of the Broken Heart.  This collection introduces the Wheely family of acrylic keychains, with a number of gears, machinery, and tool based designs.  Little robots, gear-birds, and blocky cats make up the family, each cuter than the one before!  We are super-excited about these vivacious, whimsical, and light-weight designs.  Each keychain is under an ounce, and won’t weigh down your keychain or damage your ignition.

Plus, in addition to being incredibly cute, they’re also very durable.  The author has been carrying hers since the first shipment in May, and it’s still looking as good as new.  There’s nothing like purchasing a lovely handmade art gift that will last!

Keep Orna Lalo’s keychains in mind for Christmas presents: they have been our hottest gift under $25 this season, and the holiday rush hasn’t even begun!  We are anticipating great popularity and will be keeping numerous designs in stock.

New keychain designs from Orna Lalo!

If you’re looking for a whimsical, lightweight keychain, look no further than the colorful acrylic keychains from Bulgarian artist Orna Lalo.  Each weighs under an ounce, and won’t strain your ignition or weigh down your purse.

Her work is made from a durable, light acrylic that will withstand the daily beatings many keychains endure, between being dropped and potentially scratched by sharp keys.  The author has owned her Lalo keychain for 3 months now, and it still looks brand new!

Orna Lalo’s keychains make great gifts, especially for the hard-to-buy for ladies.  So unusual and stylish!

More goodies from Funky Junque, Lalo, Poly

Today was a particularly exciting day for the receiving department – shipments from Orna Lalo, Funky Junque, and Christophe Poly were all delivered back-to-back!  

Funky Junque has graced us with a lovely selection of our best-selling necklace styles, delicate strands adorned with pearls, charms, or crystals.  These necklaces are just perfect for summer and pair nicely with a flowing dress or even work-wear.  Gold or silver, or even mixed, these are perfect for layering!  Also, check out the square rhinestone-studded pendants… very chic!

Light and bright acrylic keychains from Orna Lalo are HOT-  these are fabulous gifts or just little luxuries for yourself.  The author has been carrying hers for several weeks and has gotten a bevy of compliments!

Christophe Poly also sent us a small selection of chain necklaces, with pendants that are slightly smaller than those on the bold rubber cords.  These are perfect for the more petite ladies, or those that prefer smaller jewelry.

Stop by to enjoy the colorful array of beautiful goods available!

Bright, happy resin keychains from Orna Lalo

We are just in love with our new selection of acrylic resin keychains by Israeli-Bulgari designer Orna Lalo.  A colorful, delightful assortment of flowers, animals, and abstract shapes is available and these little guys are selling fast.  They’re bright and happy, not to mention incredibly durable and light.  

I’ve had a hard time choosing a personal favorite, they’re all so pretty and fun. Some have more dangling pieces, some have less.  Some are brighter, some are more transparent and light-catching.  Others having sayings, like “small small but a SHARK” printed on them.  There’s one (or more) for everyone!
