Our Story................. It all started when our super stylish founder Louisa decided to leave her job as a Jewellery Buyer to find the man of her dreams. A real traveller at heart, she was inspired by Eastern Asia and always had a real connection with the people and loved the relaxed lifestyle. She went off travelling and once she had found her man, decided she could not go back home and work in a job where she wasn't calling the shots. And so............ Orelia was born! Orelia began as a Consultancy working with lovely brands such as Accessorize. There was a real gap in the market for Jewellery that was between High street and Designer level. Jewellery that used semi precious components and beads, combined with beautiful charms and amazing Swarovski elements at a price that won't break the bank. Orelia, the Jewellery brand began, first showing at Pure womenswear in 2007. With such potential and an amazing reaction at Pure Louisa was fast becoming exhausted with the pace and workload as well as buying a house, getting married to the man and launching the brand, she needed help. Fast! Enter, Collette, an old friend and fellow Jewellery Buyer from the early days where they met working at Accessorize. In India, over a very long lunch with a back drop of beautiful colonial crumbling buildings, peacocks and technicolour, Louisa convinced Collette that they should go into partnership. So they did and this was back in April 2008. Also super stylish, Collette is the homespun craft lover who adds organisation to the dynamic. With Collette on board creating super duper spreadsheets, Orelia went from strength to strength. The girls at Topshop head office loved Orelia so much we launched our first Orelia concession in October 2008 in Topshop Oxford Circus. Orelia had arrived! The first Orelia office was in Islington and being Brighton based, Collette persuaded Louisa to re-locate to sunny Brighton. We love Brighton so much we now have our office and distribution centre based here on the sunshine coast. Keeping true to our original ethos, we travel far and wide to find the perfect inspiration and perfect products – from South American markets to Thai beaches and Morroccan souks, Orelia is growing into a truly globally inspired brand. What started as 1, grew to 2 in 2008 is now 12 in our office! A group of beautiful like-minded and talented girls and boys are the Team at Orelia. We also have a brilliant store team who work tirelessly to make sure our product looks a vision of beauty in Topshop. Not forgetting the wonderful sales agents who share the same vision and help make Orelia available to all the lovely Independent boutiques across the UK and Internationally. This is the story up to now....who knows where the journey will go!! To make sure that each and every one of you own a beautiful piece of our jewellery, a hair accessory or a bag!
