A jewelry pop-up shop will be hosted in downtown Toronto on October 5th and 6th. Dubbed 'Somewhere over the Rainbow,' the inaugural temporary retail initative is hosted by Sorbet Sapphire who is inviting 16 Canadian designers to showcase their work and partake in a challenge. Some of the featured creatives include Erin Tracy, Flux + Form, Made You Look, Token Gold, and more. Not only is this a great opportunity for exposure, but the event also brings together people with similar tastes.
Those who attend the jewelry pop-up will be able to catch "a rare glimpse into the world of colored sapphires" and the designer's range of gem-encrusted jewelry, as well as Sorbet Sapphire's special collection of one-of-a-kind gemstones. They will also have the opportunity to enter sapphire-inspired giveaways.
