June Product of the Month: The Rise Beyond Bracelet

At Bella Vita, we believe jewelry can do more than accessorize an outfit—it can tell a story, create connection, and support meaningful work around the world.

This month, we're featuring the Rise Beyond Bracelet as our June Product of the Month.

The story behind this bracelet began nearly two decades ago. Jennifer, founder of Jimani Collections, and I first met in 2008 at Argenta Bead Company. We were both young jewelry designers with a passion for creativity, handmade design, and the power of jewelry to connect people. Over the years, that shared passion grew into a friendship, and eventually into a collaboration.

The Rise Beyond Bracelet celebrates friendship, resilience, and the beauty of handmade craftsmanship. Designed by Jennifer and me in the United States and handcrafted by women artisans in Kenya, each bracelet represents the incredible impact that fair trade partnerships can have on individuals, families, and communities.

Through Jimani Collections, women artisans receive training, sustainable income, and safe workplaces that empower them to build brighter futures for themselves and their families. Every bracelet purchased helps support this ongoing work while honoring the skill and artistry of the women who create them.

One of the things I love most about this collection is the reminder that meaningful connections can span decades and continents. What began as a friendship between two young women has grown into a collaboration that connects women in Arkansas with artisans in Kenya through a shared love of handmade jewelry.

The Rise Beyond Bracelet is more than a bracelet. It's a reminder that we can rise beyond challenges, support one another, and create positive change through the choices we make every day.

As our June Product of the Month, the Rise Beyond Bracelet is available at special pricing throughout the month while supplies last.

Thank you for supporting handmade jewelry, fair trade partnerships, and the incredible women behind this collection.
