Wedding Bells at JB's

This past weekend we were honoured to have a young couple's bridal party stop by on their big day. We had worked closely with them in designing their rings,and their photographer (Gabe McClintock) suggested using our space for a few unique shots after the wedding. We couldn't be happier.

New website on the way !

Like the rest of Victoria Crossing, our website is under construction too.
We just wrapped a photo shoot this weekend with one of the best photographers you'll ever meet - Calgary's own Gabe McClintock (www.perspectiveye.com)
His shots will be incorporated in the new site debuting later this spring.
You can view a few shots from our shoot at Gabe's site under "blog"

enjoy.

Spring is just around the corner, be happy

Sure we're all suffering through a long nasty winter and incredible economic uncertainty, but we prefer a "glass half full" scenario. Most have us have been through hard economic times before and we always come out of it - you just have to be patient.

For our new clients, it's a good time to remind you that jewellery is a "long term" investment, and buying what's cheapest now, may not be a solution you'll look back on
in a couple of years time and be very happy about.
We feel that true value is in owning good quality products that will give you long term pleasure and service. A fine overcoat from the 40's or 50's is still a great item to wear during Calgary winters, vintage furniture never goes out of style and will actually increase in value. The same holds true for fine jewellery. A hand crafted ring with well chosen diamonds will last a lifetime and can easily become a family heirloom.

Our new loft has been a big hit with clients this year, and to brighten your day we
invite you to drop by for a glass of wine, Tuesdays to Fridays after 3pm. (just give us a quick call to let us know) It'll also give you an opportunity to see the many changes in progress in Victoria Crossing. The new "Colours" condo is mostly complete with "Union Square" across the street soon to follow. The Torode Group's new public art piece "Light, The Universe & Everything", an 18' steel illuminated sphere is now in place on the NE corner of 13th and 1st St.SW and the new upscale pub "St. James Corner" has just opened on the NW corner of 13th Ave. A number of other new shops between 12th and 13th Ave. are also coming along towards a summer opening.

With our wonderful new space, we've adopted more flexible hours to accommodate our clients' busy schedules, so we are now available for shopping or design appointments , almost any time you wish... evenings, weekends, whatever works for you.

We look forward to seeing you at the loft, and we wish you well for the upcoming year.
