New 2010 Designs from Christophe Poly

New 2010 Christophe Poly designs are here!  We are loving the new additions to the collection, and they are bigger and bolder than before!  He  has added a new metal color, a shiny brass that is a nice in-between the matte silver and shiny gold.  There are new chain styles: a long bold chain with oval links, and double-strand leather in multiple colors, and they have dropped the lever-back and clip-on earring styles.

Check out the selection on our website, now including an extensive selection of Christophe Poly’s rings.  You’re also welcome to drop us a line or give us a ring if there’s something special you’re looking for!

New jewelry from Crono Design!

Today was Canadian Jewelry Day at La Bella Vita – not only did we add the artist Hilary Druxman, we received a large number of pieces from Canadian artist Christophe Poly.  There are fabulous new necklaces, both with rubber cords and silver or gold chains, bracelets of rubber or metal, and a bounty of aluminum rings, also in silver or gold.  As always, his jewelry is in high demand and sells quickly.   

We urge you to take a look at our selection on our website, and then contact us about additional available items. Christophe Poly’s jewelry sells so quickly it is difficult for us to keep an updated catalog, but we are always happy to snap a quick photo of the pieces that are currently in stock.

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!

New shipment of Christophe Poly jewelry from Crono Design!

Finally, a long-awaited order from Crono Design arrived today!  We are happy to have a large number of rubber necklaces, bracelets, cuffs, earrings and rings, featuring several new designs and many of our favorites.  

Crono Design’s jewelry is created by Christophe Poly, a talented Canadian artist who uses an architectural, geometric approach to jewelry design.  His pieces are unique, stunning, and durable, made primarily from recycled aluminum.  He also uses brass accents and rubber cording in many of his pieces. In the few hours since the order arrived we’ve already sold a number of pieces!  Please, hurry in before it’s all gone!

We have added many of his pieces to the website for our far-away audience, but because the work sells so quickly we do not keep a full inventory of Christophe Poly’s work on the web.  If you’d like to see what we currently have in stock, please drop us an email and we’d be happy to snap a photo for you.  In the meantime, please view our website!
