HANDCRAFTED LEATHER BRACELETS BY NIALAYA
Juhani wears NIALAYA leather bracelets combined with NIALAYA beaded bracelets in New York City
THE INSPIRATION
Nialaya Founder and Designer, Jannik Olander sources inspiration for his new designs while travelling around the world. He spends most of his summers in southern Europe in places such as Mykonos, Greece and Ibiza, Spain – both strong inspiration sources for Jannik, which can certainly be noticed in a lot of Nialaya’s leather bracelet designs. Combining the bohemian touch that he gets from summers on the Europan islands, with the spirituality from Southeast Asia where Jannik first was inspired to start making jewelry, Nialaya’s leather bracelets are unique pieces of jewelry while also being exceptionally versatile.
Our Black Leather Bracelet with Gold Bali Clasp Lock, available here and our
Black Leather Bracelet with Gold Anchor, available here

THE DESIGN AND CRAFTING
Nialaya’s leather bracelets are handcrafted in our design studio on Melrose Avenue in Hollywood. Using high-quality hand braided leathers that will only look better with age, and strong stainless steel details and closures, our leather bracelets are guaranteed to last a lifetime.

Our Black Leather Bracelet with Bali Clasp is a great example of an inspiration that came from one of Jannik’s trips to Bali, Indonesia. The stunning landscapes and laidback lifestyle inspired him to design a piece that would remind him of the time he spent on the astonishing island. The result became a one-of-a-kind leather piece, featuring a unique clasp in silver or gold with distinctive engraving. The bracelet is bohemian yet elegant and has been part of our collection for many years.

THE INSPIRATION
Jannik Olander collects inspiration for his healing crystal bracelet designs on his travels around the world as well as around his hometown, Los Angeles. The Californian nature, climate, and lifestyle strongly inspire Jannik and that can be noticed in a lot of Nialaya’s designs.

OUR HOMETOWN, LOS ANGELES
Nialaya CEO and Founder Jannik Olander collects inspiration for his designs
on his travels around the world. He brings his ideas with him back to
Los Angeles where he designs and makes the pieces by hand in our
production studio that's located right behind the store on Melrose.
Jannik started making beaded bracelets by hand in his garage in the Hollywood
Hills in 2009. He got inspired to start the brand after a trip to India where he
met a Shaman who taught him about spiritual stones and their unique
healing powers. After arriving back in LA, he purchased beads and string
and learnt how to make Nialaya's classic macrame style bracelet.
2 years later, in 2011 we opened our flagship store on Melrose.
A travel look that Jannik wore when traveling to Marbella to speak
about his success with Nialaya at an entrepreneurial fair in front of
300 aspiring entrepreneurs.

Jannik's first Los Angeles home was located on Appian Way in the
Hollywood Hills. Once in a while he goes back to remind himself how far
he has come and to enjoy the stunning views.
On casual office days, Jannik likes to wear beads mixed with leather.
He mixes a lot of different textures to create a unique and distinctive look.

There is a reason why Brazilians are the most loved people in the world."
