Announcement    Handmade cycling themed jewelry. Stunning, unique and must see selection of one of a kind pieces. Most items are made to order and custom requests are aways welcome!

A lot of folks ask,"what does Velo Gioielli mean?" "Velo" is bike in French and "Gioielli" is jewelry in Italian. Two great cycling cultures. Velo Gioielli!

Cycling is my passion. I ride cyclocross, road and trail. Race,tour and mountian bike. I love all things bike! This handmade bike jewelry is another extension of that love. I create jewelry for those in mind with a passion for cycling from repurposed, recycled parts.

When I started bending and twisting up my first bike spoke bracelet I had no idea it would lead to all this. I realized the parts of bicycle chain become a great media and multipurposed. I like to use nice Campagnolo, Shimano and other high end or exotic bicycle chains. However, I can do something with most bike chain. Then it was a simple leap to add in break cable and bike inner tubes. Now being added in is a slection of metal work and multi-metal pieces.

I hope my passion for creating unique bikey jewelry is evident in the work here. There is a lot more to come so keep checking back for newer items. I try to add something every few days to keep it fresh.

Please feel free to ask about custom orders. Sizing, colors and materials can always be changed and possibly remade into a piece that is unique and special to you.

  • A nice line up of spoke bracelets on display at the Seattle To Portland finish line.

THE STORY

In 1986 I took a self supported cycling tour. I was a junior in high school and went with 5 other guys one being the adult tour guide, who was also a track coach. The 5 of us trugged across the state of Oregon and back carrying everything we needed our selves. I was hooked, I loved cycling.

Since I've had several different careers, jobs and one other business. At times I lost touch with cycling, but it's always been in my heart and when I return to it I always wonder why I'd stopped. I'm at home in the saddle.

Now I am truly loving what I do. It's becoming more than a passion and I enjoy bringing "bike" to people all over the world.

    In 1986 the passion for cycling started when I road my bike across the state of Oregon and back. Now I share my passion for cycling through jewelry and art. I also continue to ride, but never as much as I like too.

Thanks for visiting Velo Gioielli. Lots of people ask, "what does your name mean?" Simply bike in French and jewelry in Italian. Two great cycling cultures. I aim to create unique jewelry that comes directly from my passion for cycling. I truely love cycling and all aspects of it. I hope you see this in my work.

Returns and exchange details
Simply put, please and always contact me if there is an issue. I aim to please. Again I am not perfect and running a one person operation, but I will certainly do my very best to make sure all products are of the quality and description you were expecting. Since this is many times a special issue that is unforeseen everything is taken on a case by case basis.

Regarding international shipping I do not cover any extra customs fees or tariffs. This is handled on the receivers end. I do not cover international mail theft in any way, and is always handled on a case by case basis. I will always work towards the best solution however due to shipping costs I can not completely cover if an item is stolen.
Payment
Etsy make this really easy but if for some reason you can't pay via Etsy and are local we can always meet and you can pay in person, just contact me after choosing the "other" option.
Shipping
I will ship via USPS or FedEx.

International shipments: small packages ship via USPS 1st class and are not exceptionally trackable and due to customs a bit unpredictable in regard to delivery date. Large packages will normally ship FedEx and easy to track.

All extra costs from duties, taxes or tariffs are the buyer's responsibility. They vary greatly from country to country and again I can not predict the exact amounts that might be charged.

Generally if there is a return, you pay for the return shipping. Issues are taken on a case by case basis and I will do my best to resolve any issue. I am happy to report to this date I've never had a lost package. Sometimes it takes a while to find out where a package went but those are very few and far between any issue.
Additional policies and FAQs
I do custom consignment! If the project is very custom with dates, names or otherwise makes the piece unsellable to anyone else payment will have to be made up front. Generally this is how Etsy works anyways with payment.

If the custom project is a general art project I can keep any piece you might not be happy with and create another. To date this hasn't been an issue but of course I'd work hard to resolve any issue.
