Jewelry in recycled glass bottle packaging

Have you noticed the transformation that's taking place on the corner of Sixth and Bainbridge in Bella Vista? It's kind of hard to miss. The loud, orange and blue storefront that once housed the Skateboard Shop is no more. Taking its place is Bario-Neal, a toned-down, chic purveyor of jewelry made locally from 100% reclaimed precious metals. Passersby can take their first chance to peek inside tomorrow when owners and designers Anna Bario and Page Neal throw their grand opening hoopla. Bario says the festivities will feature beer, wine and an assortment of snacks; and their collection of bling will be available for purchase. All of their pieces are created through a low-impact, environmentally-friendly process using reclaimed metals and ethically-sourced stones. The casual pieces (bracelets, necklaces, trinkets) range from $15 to $220, while their upscale goods (engagement rings, wedding bands) can cost anywhere from $150 to $10K. This is their very first retail location, so pop in to congratulate them on their pretty new space and welcome them to the neighborhood. Oh, and while you're at it, can you pick us up something shiny and gorgeous? Sat., Sept. 18th, 5 p.m., free, Bario-Neal, 700 S. 16th St., 215.454.2164, bario-neal.com
