Dalhai Vela

Snowglobe Jewelry

Real Snowflake Jewellery

When Dalhai Vela (Artist and Founder) moved to Canada from Mexico, she was finally able to experience winter the way she had seen it in movies. She became obsessed with the beauty and perfection of snowflakes and wanted to share her experience with her family back home. Her obsession led her to create Snowglobe Jewelry.
 
Dalhai developed an innovative method to PRESERVE INDIVIDUAL SNOWFLAKES and turn them into pieces of wearable art. Each piece of handmade sterling silver jewelry is inspired by the beauty of Canadian nature. She harvests each snowflake in Yellowknife, NT, whose unique climate allows her to preserve the snowflakes.

Snowglobe Jewelry started small in 2019, grew rapidly and now exports real snowflake jewelry to the US, UK, Australia and New Zealand.

Dalhai is proud to have been featured on interviews with CBC News, TV segments with ABC News, and Global News and others. Snowglobe jewelry has been displayed in prestigious art galleries such as the Ottawa Art Gallery, Winnipeg Art Gallery, and the Alberta Craft Council Gallery.
