If you are looking for jewellery with heart, and for pieces that won’t get lost amongst the crowd of silver chandelier earrings, look no further than Pretty Chic Boutique (34 Quebec St., 519-780-2800, prettychic.ca). The boutique offers one-of-a-kind pieces from Canadian jewellery makers and artisans.

Owner Corin Comisky opened the shop two-and-a-half years ago, after giving a significant face lift to an empty storefront downtown. Comisky travels to art exhibitions and jewellery shows to find the next designs for her space.

The boutique serves not just as a retail space, but also a gallery, displaying the works of artists from across the country. Pretty Chic’s offerings, which include earrings from Catt Originals, silver rings by Tashi, Christophe Poly bracelets and necklaces by Stella, are eclectic and affordably-priced. The shop is also a family operation–Comisky’s father and business partner, Steve, uses the skills he honed as a tool and die maker to create simple, circular aluminum pendants (from $30).
