Trollbeads at The Little Traveler

trollbeads spring Trollbeads at The Little Traveler

Trollbeads Trunk Show Friday April 30-Saturday, May 1:  Get a 5th bead FREE when you purchase four beads.

Trollbeads, created by eighteen Danish and internationally renowned jewelery designers, are so much more than pretty bracelets or necklaces.  They are functional art, finding  inspiration from mythology, astrology, fairy tales, fauna, flora, cultural diversity, and even familiar, everyday things.  Looking at the Trollbeads collection is more like viewing an art gallery rather than shopping for jewelry.  Trollbeads have won international artistic recognition and have recently been exhibited at Sculpture Objects & Functional Art in Chicago and New York.

Because each person’s story is unique, the Trollbeads gallery includes a wide variety of unique and interesting beads,  charms and pendants for individuals to create beautiful and meaningful bracelets and necklaces, starting with the highest quality of raw materials, including sterling silver, 18 carat gold, Italian Murano glass, natural pearls and precious stones.  Add to that the variety in design, from symbols to flowers to animals to zodiac signs and you’ll understand that truly, each piece of Trollbeads jewelry is as individual as the person wearing it.

Chamilia – A Contemporary Twist on the Classic Charm Bracelet

On February 13, 2010, The Little Traveler is hosting the Chamilia Valentine’s Event.  Get a FREE Chamilia heart bead with a $100 Chamilia purchase on that day.

Chamilia designer, Killian Rieder, had a vision that would allow women to create their own unique bracelets and necklaces to reflect their own unique selves, as well as their changing moods — like  a chameleon.  The realization of that vision is the Chamilia collection of jewelry.  The company was launched in 2002 with a line of handcrafted beads made of Murano glass, colored stones, 14 kt gold, and sterling silver to pair with bangles, bracelets and necklaces.

Chamilia beads and charms are often noted for their exquisite detailing and variety, and are only sold at  independent jewelry retailers and boutiques, such as The Little Traveler in Geneva, IL, in the west suburbs of Chicago.  Now, the company offers over 600 different styles of beads and includes Swarovski crystal and an exclusive Disney® beads collection.  The company supports charitable causes by introducing limited edition beads and donating a portion of the proceeds to support efforts, such as Breast Cancer and Autism research.

Premium Chandeliers by Murray Feiss and Quoizel

Chandeliers Premium Chandeliers by Murray Feiss and Quoizel The chandeliers at The Little Traveler are made by manufacturers whose top priorities are premium quality in design and function.  Two of our top chandelier manufacturers are Quoizel and Murray Feiss.

Quoizel avoids fads and trends in its lighting design, aiming rather to create a timeless piece of art that you will love decades down the road just as much as you do today.  The company was founded in New York in 1930, and although it recently relocated to a 500,000 square-foot, state-of-the-art facility in South Carolina, it strives to maintain  a small business feel with an emphasis on lasting relationships. To that end, the company is still privately held, family-owned and operated.

Murray Feiss Lighting is designed to complement a variety of styles — from Art Deco and Mid-Century, to classic and contemporary — for every budget.  The architectural concepts developed by the award-winning in-house design team are brought to life by skilled artists and technicians in company-owned factories, ensuring that the Murray Feiss high standard of craftsmanship, which has been nurtured through three generations, is present in all steps of the process.

Quoizel and Murray Feiss chandeliers are 50% to 75% off throughout April 2010.  These beautifully crafted chandeliers, normally priced from $240 to $1,800, will be on sale at prices ranging from $60 to $720.
