Gorgeous Jewelry

Darlings, CC is so excited to introduce you to Anuja Tolia, a unique line of fashion-forward, hand-crafted jewelry!  Here's a bit about the collection in the designer's own words:

I’ve been passionate in all realms of fashion ever since I can remember.  It is that passion that took me to The Parsons School of Design in New York City, where I graduated with a distinction in Fashion Design.  After graduating and working for several major designers such as a Wifebeader and Liz Claiborne Inc., I was looking to take my creativity to the next level, so I enrolled in the Studio Art Center International in Florence, Italy.  There, I studied and honed my skills in a variety of areas within fashion, but nothing excited me more than creating the perfect piece of jewelry to complete a look.  After discovering that designing jewelry is what I was destined to do, I transformed my ideas into reality, and, thus, the Anuja Tolia Line was born!

After returning to Manhattan from Italy, I got right to work putting the finishing touches on the first few collections and officially launched the Anuja Tolia Line in June 2010!  The Line is composed of pieces created from exotic gems, edgy metals, and vibrantly colored semi-precious stones.   The elegant earrings, rings, necklaces, bangles, and cuffs are processed globally from India to Italy.  Each piece fuses my love of Indian artisanship with Western flare.  I give every detail specific attention to ensure that each piece is flawless and makes you feel like a new woman the minute you put it on.  If you’re looking for unique, handcrafted, fashion-forward, and trendsetting jewelry, look no further.  The Anuja Tolia Line is for you!

CC Loves...

Darlings, here are just a few of the little lovelies that CC is currently super smitten with...

Mercado Global hand woven Awning Stripe Medium Pillow.  CC has and adores!

Mercado Global is a social enterprise with an innovative approach to fighting poverty and empowering women in rural Guatemala. By providing business development support and connecting artisan cooperatives to sales opportunities in the U.S. on an unprecedented scale, Mercado Global partner artisans are a source of change in global sourcing practices.  

Each Mercado Global collection starts with a journey to the highlands of Guatemala where our designers partner with indigenous women artisans to develop unique pieces that combine Mayan craftsmanship with modern design. From one of the most marginalized populations in the world, our partner artisans are rising to become leaders in their communities and are sending their children to school, often for the first time. Mercado Global's partners include Levi Strauss, Anthropologie, and ABC Carpet and Home, among others.
