DESERT DIARIES
About a two hour car ride east of Los Angeles, you'll find the breathtaking
Joshua Tree National Park. A vast area in the middle of nowhere surrounded by
rugged rocks, desert landscape and of course covered with Joshua trees.
Even though millions of people travel to Joshua Tree every year, you'll feel completely alone in the 3,200 km² park.
A perfect place to reflect and find inspiration, according to designer Jannik Olander.

When creating our African Vintage Glass Beaded Bracelets, Olander was actually
inspired by desert landscape and a casual, bohemian lifestyle. The African
beads are over 50 years old and were made by hand in Ghana back in the day.
Olander paired the vintage beads with semi-precious stones and added a touch of
gold for a signature Nialaya look. Shop the look below..

MEN'S RINGS AND HOW TO STYLE THEM
If you can't figure out when, where, and how to wear finger jewels, not to worry -
men's rings are certainly not for everyone. Wearing rings as a guy, that's not a
wedding band, is truly a fashion statement.
A small yet distinctive detail that's there for the ones who will notice.
Discover our full Men's Rings Collection here
When it comes to fashion rings, there are no rules as to which fingers to wear them
on, how to stack them, or when to wear them. For American men, a wedding band is traditionally
worn on the ring finger of the left hand. However in other cultures, the wedding ring is worn on the right hand.
So don't worry to much about left or right hand wear.

Try wearing a pinky ring for an eye-popping statement. This is a look
that definitely stands out and will catch a lot of attention. The great thing about
wearing a pinky ring is that it is quite comfortable as it does not interfere that much
with your other fingers. Wear it solo or stacked with other rings in the same metal!
Going back hundreds of years, the index finger was the most common finger for a
man's ring. The ring would typically be a signet ring or family crest - a sign of class
and rank. At this time in some parts of Europe, people below a certain rank were forbidden to wear rings.

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!
A DAY IN THE LIFE OF JANNIK OLANDER
He's the Founder, CEO, and Head of Design of Nialaya Jewelry.
Today we get a peek into a regular day in his not so regular life..
THE MORNINGS
THE MORNINGS
Jannik is one of those one-in-a-million-people who can work until 3am, get
back up at 7am and still feel energized and productive. The mornings are very important to Jannik.
This is when he finds calmness through his meditation, and he's able to gather his thoughts and ideas for the new day.
Of course, a quick check through his e-mail inbox is a must before heading out to the meditation spot at his Beverly Hills home. The meditation is usually followed by a work-out session before driving down to the Nialaya office..
It's time to pick up a green juice and head to the Nialaya office.
On work-days, Jannik loves to be comfortable, dressed in sneakers, jeans,
and a hoodie. Jannik spends more time at the office than he does at home, so
it's important to him that Nialaya feels like a second home to him and his employees.
AT NIALAYA
AT NIALAYA
No day is like the other at the Nialaya office. With Nialaya being sold in over
100 stores in 25 countries, and new styles being launched weekly,
Jannik is very much involved with every part of the business - and he loves it!
This is were all our pieces are sketched, designed, produced by hand, and
shipped out to our customers around the world.
The Nialaya office feels more like a living room than it does an office, decorated
The Nialaya office feels more like a living room than it does an office, decorated
with Scandinavian designer furniture and the walls covered in unique artwork,
it's a place you don't want to leave at the end of the day.
Fronted by the beautiful flagship store that's filled with all our latest collections,
as well as unique, custom made one-of-one pieces.
Definitely a place to come if you want a truly unique Nialaya piece!

LUNCH HOUR
LUNCH HOUR
One of the best things about living in LA is lunch outside at one of the roof-tops.
Nothing beats a beautiful LA view.
Although, lunch hour for Jannik usually means work hour with a quick bite.
This time is spent getting business meetings done,
and definitely some Instagram content while waiting for the check..
VISITING NIALAYA RETAILERS
Jannik often travels around the world to visit Nialaya retailers.
He personally trains the staff and make sure the displays look up to standard.
With some of our retailers being located right in our hometown, it makes it
a bit easier to make frequent visits. The photo below is from the SLS Hotel in Beverly Hills,

AT THE END OF THE DAY
Every evening is different for Jannik, whether he's stepping out to an event,
grabbing dinner with friends, or going out for an evening drive in his AC Cobra to catch a stunning sunset from the Hollywood Hills, he usually always ends back up at the office working until the early morning hours. Unwinding for a few hours in the evening before getting back to work helps Jannik clear his head and get into designer mode. This is when he finds inspiration to create and new designs come to life..
