Luxe Leather Available NOW!

Luxe Leather Friendship Wraps

These gorgeous Chambers & Beau Italian leather bracelets are perfect arm candy.

Simply wrap around the wrist a couple of times and fasten with a C&B stainless steel skinny buckle.

Adorn with either the sterling silver mini or maxi ID plaque and customize with words that mean something special to you.

Alternatively add some C&B charms for a touch of rock chic or create extra impact and layer up with similar styles for a tougher edge.

Available in gold, pewter and bronze.

Stay Gold

Nothing Gold Can Stay

Nature's first green is gold
Her hardest hue to hold
Her early leaf's a flower
But only so an hour
Then leaf subsides to leaf
So Eden sank to grief
So dawn goes down to day
Nothing gold can stay
(Robert Frost)

Did you ever see The Outsiders? I loved that film so much. The poem brings a tear just thinking about it.

I am all over gold at the moment.
Love it and am even thinking about doing a small range of C&B in gold rather than silver.
On the weekend, these beauties arrived much to MR C&B's horror. He reckons old ladies wearing velour tracksuits in Miami would wear these. I took no notice and haven't taken them off since. Granted, they are a tad on the shiny side. But a few more beach walks to sandblast them and they will look fabulous.

And, they match my new luxe leather gold wrap to perfection!

Bracelets available soon in the eboutique!

What do you reckon - a major fashion mistake or very cool (even in miami pensioner stylie)?

Father's Day ♥....

..... already.

It comes around so fast no?

In case you are not all ready organised, Father's day falls on Sunday 19th June so only a few weeks away.

A busy time here at Chambers & Beau, busier surprisingly than Mother's Day. Reckon it must be the fact that we ladies are so much better at buying gifts and not leaving it till the last minute *hint hint*

A few new goodies have just been added to the eboutique - perfect gifts for any special gents in your life!

Personalised Money Clip - A stylish alternative to a bulky wallet!

Personalised Bookmark - A gorgeous keepsake that can be personalised with text and vintage ribbon on your choice.

And some best selling faves all still available in the eboutique under gifts for men.

Keyrings and Collar Stays....

.... and friendship bracelets. Personalise with dates, location coordinates or a simple message.

For any bespoke orders for father's day please feel free to get in touch.

Hope you all have a good week

Hermes Love

Hermes are so damn good at jewellery design.

I have been lusting after one of their leather bracelets for a long long time.

The hardware is just so brilliant, they are like little works of art!

I love the double wrap look so much it inspired me to design a Chambers & Beau version.

It has taken a while to get it all together - how does one choose just 3 leathers (so many gorgeous colours, finishes and textures)?

The samples are here finally and have been whizzed off to the photographer so hopefully next week I will be able to share. Stock will not be available until mid June but I reckon they are gonna be seriously worth the wait.

Chambers & Beau Luxe leather friendship wraps coming very soon - watch this space x

A Royal Wedding

I love a wedding.

I kidded myself all last week that I wasn't really interested in the whole royal affair but sure enough at 8am on Friday I got completely sucked in and almost thought I might shed a tear.

Suprisingly Kate and the bridesmaids were not wearing any Chambers & Beau jewellery. Shocking considering how many perfect wedding treats are available in the eboutique.

Sentimental keepsakes perfect for the full wedding party!
