We usually only do a Lizzie Fortunato event in the spring, but when I scrolled through their website recently and saw all the new fine jewelry, I had to ask them if we could do an event this fall.
I thought, wouldn’t it be perfect to do a fine jewelry event just in time for the holidays?
I have always had an obsession with necklaces that you build. I had an add-a-bead necklace in the '80s that I wish I still owned. Years ago, I tried to recreate that idea with a local jeweler. I never figured it out, but so many designers have now gotten the concept to market, which makes me happy.
I love anything you can build upon, and Lizzie Fortunato was one of the first to embrace the concept. Each year, they just keep getting better and better.
My favorite new piece is the rondelle, and I also love the silk cords. I finally had to break down and get one! My personal favorite is the red cord, a red rondelle, the gold cornicello, and the gold heart. I am starting with three but will work my way up to seven total, adding two charms at a time.
That is why these are so great: you can add to them over time. What a perfect gift! And then, with each special occasion, you can add to it. They don’t have to all be Lizzie charms either; you can take pieces from your own collection.
They sent us a great selection of necklaces and charms, but if you see something online that we don’t have, we are happy to order it and apply the discount.
Stop by starting Thursday, November 12, through Sunday, November 15, and shop the entire Lizzie Fine Jewelry selection. They sent us more than just the charms!
