Recently, my boyfriend purchased me one of these beautiful necklaces (with our anniversary date) as a birthday gift. Being as sentimental as I am, I loved how personal and thoughtful a gift it was-- it is one of those things that will forever remind me of him and I and where we are now. Since I've been wearing it though, I've gotten compliments from almost everyone I see on the unique beauty of the necklace. I'm afraid I'll never take it off again.
The neatest thing about their jewelry though is that it started so simply-- two lawyer-by-day friends had inherited jewelry from their grandmothers (hence the company name, dalla nonna, Italian for "from the grandmother") and fell in love with the idea of creating pieces that brought together things old and new. In particular, a tie clip (that had been passed down to co-owner Jess from her grandfather) inspired the classic piece, the calendar necklace. They also make the calendar available as a bracelet as well. You can check them (and their lovely creations) out here.
As for me, I think I know what I'm getting for my mom for mother's day...
