Hard-Wear Chic

Van Galz Jewelry Debuts New Collection

Versatile and trend-setting are key elements for jewelry in Miami and Van Galz has released a collection that embodies these characteristics.

Following their success at the San Francisco International Gift Show, Van Galz brings to chic fashionistas the bold Hard-Wear Collection for Fall 2011.

Each piece of the Hard-Wear Collection is versatile and trend-setting with a touch of vintage. Using Swarovski crystals and a semi-precious stones, the more than 250 pieces are rich with color, luster and elegance. The Collection includes necklaces, bracelets, rings, earrings, and belts in distinct categories: Resort/Casual, Crystal-n-Leather, Night and Day, formal and of course the brand’s newest collection, Hard-Wear.

Van Galz is a hometown product, designed by husband and wife team Sam and Fara Sax. The Saxs’ stumbled upon the jewelry business quite by accident. Sam was on a business trip to Europe and brought back some interesting pieces of jewelry. Fara began wearing them on sales calls while working as an advertising representative. The pieces were a hit and Fara would often sell them to friends, stores and even strangers. Realizing their propensity for the fashion jewelry business, they launched Van Galz with the vision of pushing the design envelope by presenting affordable and trend-setting lines. Pieces range in price from $30 to $1000.

“We are so pleased with the feedback we have received,” said Fara. “Women of all ages have been wearing our pieces that are fashion forward and fun. They can be carried from day-wear to evening-wear, and most importantly, they are affordable.”
