MISS NYET JEWELRY: IMPORTANT MESSAGE REGARDING HOLIDAY SHIPPING

Attention, loyal customers!
While Miss Nyet Jewelry is never really on holidays, we must inform you we are no longer able to ship new orders after today, until next year.

In the meantime, we encourage you to browse our website and to get ideas for a custom order that designer Delphine Pontvieux can create for you in the new year.


Why settle for a mass-produced belt, cuff or necklace everyone can get at the department store, when you can get an original, made entirely by hand, in Chicago, Illinois, USA, to your exact specifications and for a very affordable price?


Send all the questions you may have to missnyet@missnyet.com and we will be happy to answer them all to satisfaction.


All orders placed between now and January 12, 2014, will ship starting January 13, 2014.

We thank you in advance for your comprehension, and wish you a very, very merry holiday season. See you all in the new year!

DELPHINE PONTVIEUX – GUEST SPEAKER AT DRI ANNUAL MEETING IN CHICAGO

 Delphine Pontvieux will discuss her novel “ETA-Estimated Time of Arrest” today, Thursday October 17th, at the DRI annual meeting (private event).
What is DRI?

DRI is the largest international membership organization of attorneys defending the interests of business and individuals in civil litigation.


DRI is committed to:



Enhancing the skills, effectiveness, and professionalism of defense lawyers;
Anticipating and addressing issues germane to defense lawyers and the civil justice system;
