On a trip to Rome, over a bottle of Chianti and a plate of delicious pasta pomodoro, three girlfriends discovered a common love for decorative and contemporary art and fine design.
Thus Via Mia Design was conceived.
Via Mia (meaning "My Way" in Italian) recognizes that each woman is unique and has her own sense of style.
Via Mia Design helps women embrace and express their individuality by providing singularly beautiful jewelry that compliments a woman's own fashion sensibilities.
Via Mia Design employs unusual materials, and semi-precious gems and draws artistic inspiration from Europe, Latin America, Asia, and Africa to create one of a kind handmade pieces of wearable art.
Via Mia Design is headquartered in Hyde Park in Chicago and is showcased in Museum Stores and Boutiques around the world.
