All things beautiful: Launch of Pomellato jewellery collection at Bijouterie Italienne delightful evening, a fabulous store, breathtaking jewelleries and beautiful people that is what Bijouterie Italienne invited you for on Saturday august 16 at the grand opening of the Pomellato prêt-à-porter collection Msiamo in Montreal. Held in partnership with the Italian Canadians’ National Congress during the Settimana Italiana, the event was a resounding success. Close to 100 people attended the occasion enjoying the opening cocktail and the amazing prizes gracefully offered by Bijouterie Italienne. A Montblanc perfume and two Pomellato rings were given away to enchanted guests during a drawdown held by the owners Marco and Paola Miserendino. The celebration gave justice to the Miserendino family, who always tried to offer the best quality to their clients through a selection of rare and exclusive products. Pomellato is exactly the type of select brands the SaintZotique’s institution is glad to present to its clientele. Milan based designer, Pomellato reflects a typical European image perMarco Miserendino, Sandra Ambrosoni e l’onorevole fect for Montrealers that carry a dual Sergio Monti nature showing close ties with Europe and a strong North American character. “That duality is really what makes Montreal’s market so attractive for us” revealed Sandra Ambrosoni vice president for Pomellato in North America. What sets Pomellato apart are its unique cuts done on gems of different colours: aquamarine, Madera quartz, red and pink tourmaline, peridot and garnet, reenforced by finedetailed gold to create a luxurious appeal. But, more than anything else, it is that unique essence of artistic jewellery and that uncompromised passion for creation. v
