Bozeman Life Magazine: “No McJewelry Here… Alara Jewelry”

Published: May 2021  |  Author: Brent Fjeldheim  |  Type: Feature

Summary: In this May 2021 profile, Bozeman Life spotlights Alara’s gallery experience—European-trained design roots, a mission to “make you the jewelry hero,” and a blend of Old-World craft with New-World tech and ethical sourcing. Team updates include master goldsmith Matt Longhini and manager-turned-partner Chantell Bury. The story underscores approachable expertise, memorable service, and a standing invitation to reimagine “unloved” pieces through repair, refurbishment, redesign, and more.

“Things this beautiful, selected for a positive connection, should be paired with service that involves listening and education; not selling or pushing.”
