Just Arrived ... Elsa Corsi Jewelry!
Elsa Corsi designs decadent couture wedding jewelry. Her Vancouver, B.C. based studio is brimming with her hand made creations, all crafted with true old world techniques that are used by the finest couturiers. You can't quite classify her pieces as costume jewelry, but would use the French term of "bijoux fantasie" as a fitting description. Elsa has incredible style and an eye for true red carpet style which shines through in her work. We are honored to carry her impeccably made creations in our boutique.

A Left Bank Exclusive, The St. Remy Pave Crystal Earring
We love the magnificent look of these new sparkling pave crystal earrings. Named for one of our favorite picturesque villages in the south of France, The St. Remy earring has an art deco influence and is a dripping 2-3/4" in length. Made of sterling silver and tiny Swarovski crystals, these dramatic earrings are a perfect for a strapless gown. Priced at $129, these earrings will make you feel like a million bucks...as they say! Matching bracelet and necklace also available.

A Visit To Regina B. Couture Wedding Accessory Designer
We often get the question at our boutique, "Where do you get all of your jewelry?"
The answer is; so, so many small studios and artisans across the country. For many years, we begged to carry the gorgeous and intricate designs of Regina B. NYC but since her studio has very limited production, she was hesitant to let us carry it at our Chicago boutique. After a few year's, our persistence paid off and she allowed us to visit her studio in New York City's fashion district. For a lover of antique and vintage jewelry, we were in heaven!
Watch the video below and visit The Left Bank to see Regina B's gorgeous, vintage style wedding jewelry.
