New Arbor website and blog

www.arborjewels.com.au

We invite you to take a look at our new website 

We engaged the talented Erin King to photograph some of the amazing work at Arbor and we were mightily impressed with the results! The website also has a blog that we will now be using instead of this one (http://arborjewels.com.au/blog)

Before the end of this year we will be including an online store meaning you can shop at Arbor from your lounge room in Melbourne, Darwin or Sweden!

Winter, winter, winter

As we sniffle and snuffle through the end of winter, dashing outside at the slightest hint of sun to warm our pale faces, we have just stocked up on a few delicious new colours of A Little Light candles. These scentless beauties are all hand made over the creek in Northcote.

You have to love a giant pear! Priced from $9 - $25

Stay warm,

New Autumn/Winter Nancybird

The new range of Nancybird has been in store for about a month now. The new colours and prints are just beautiful and quite a departure from the last couple of seasons, and the clutches and wallets are to die for!

London Blue Loveliness

Nadine Treister who stocks Arbor and also works in the shop has delivered a few new pieces recently, but this one just took my breath away...
Nice hey? Oxidised sterling silver, 18c yellow gold and a 6mm round London blue Topaz. Hmmm, birthday present for me, from...me?

Beauty in 2012

Well we made it to 2012 and we have some beautiful new additions to the Arbor family!

Sagen is a new Swedish brand that turns vintage Swedish porcelain crockery into gorgeous jewellery. Sagen means old saga or story and designer Elin was inspired to use old porcelain because of the nostalgic, emotional link they form with the remembered warmth of shared family meals. "They remind me of Sunday dinners at my grandmother's house." With the ongoing fragmentation of the traditional family and communal meals becoming a rarity for many, this link to a bygone time is certainly current.
All pieces are made from sterling silver.
