Our Story

I wanted to say thank you for coming to my website and supporting my small business. My name is Laura and this is my jewelry store, Shop Canela Vintage.

When you buy a piece of jewelry from my shop, you are supporting a proud latin women who is building a business of her own. I'm so happy to say that I finally found my true passion, which is creating unique pieces for you.

I was an Event Manager in San Francisco but due to the pandemic my venue was closed. I found myself unemployed and wondering what to do next? Like many of you, I felt lost in this scenario and didn’t know what to do next. After weeks of self searching, I end up seeing an album with old pics of my small jewelry store in Lima, Peru. I remembered how much I enjoyed creating jewelry pieces and that was the signal I needed.

That week, Shop Canela Vintage was created. I sincerely hope that you enjoy the pieces here as much as I do.

In my shop you will find two lines. The first is the repurposed designer jewelry where I feature and repurpose

luxury brands like Dior, Prada, Chanel and others.

I mix them up with new styles of chains, and add pieces to create unique designs for you. All these pieces are thoroughly inspected to ensure authenticity. We guarantee all our items are repurposed from 100% authentic designer pieces.

I want to give luxury vintage a second life and create beautiful items

for you to love.

Before & After

Secondly, I have the Fine Jewelry section, where you will find a curated section of 18K gold filled chains, pendants and earrings at affordable prices. These pieces have the highest quality, are safe for sensitive skin and unaffected by water.

Also they have 100x more gold than regular plated.

Our mission is to give you beautiful and unique pieces that exemplify your style. We want you to feel empowered, inspired and confident as you wear our pieces.

Finally, I'm immensely grateful for the small community that we have created. I thank you all for your support and encouragement.
