Juvelisto Design

General information

What does Juvelisto mean? It is the Esperanto word for a Jeweller. Esperanto was created to be a universal language, in the same manner that the creation of jewellery is universally admired.

Juvelisto Design opened in Steveston, B.C. in March of 2011 and has been a destination shop ever since. It is a charming gallery where you will find creative and one-of -a-kind jewellery made by over 25 local, national and international jewellery artists. The gallery owner, Sasha Shkolnik, also presents her own gold, silver and bronze collections in store. The variety of styles, techniques and jewellery media at Juvelisto is unlimited and you can truly find something for everyone at Juvelisto. This is the place for the locals of Steveston to get unique gifts for any occasion or treat themselves to something very special – all the while supporting their local economy. Steveston draws many visitors from all over the world and they so often chose Juvelisto for that unique, local, handmade souvenir. Juvelisto offers a wonderful jewellery shopping experience with friendly and experienced staff that are willing to assist you in any way and tell you about the artist who created your chosen piece, their technique and the materials they used!

We all relate to our jewellery in a certain way. Some love the sparkle of their diamonds, some appreciate attractiveness of extraordinary designs, some are fascinated by the power of natural coloured gemstones, others hold jewellery dear because of its sentiment but for most of us our jewels are an expression of our personality and taste. When Sasha designs jewellery for a client, she feels as though she has the power of being a translator of people’s feelings, a magician to create someone’s vision in a piece of metal and a psychic who’s trying to unlock their personalities and free their desires. Jewellery speaks but only one language and it’s that of beauty.
