For owner Kimberly La Du, the opening of Manfredi Jewelers in New Canaan is a dream come true. La Du, a jewelry veteran who spent the past twelve years with Henry C. Reid, has teamed up with partner Roberto Chiappelloni to position Manfredi New Canaan as the jewelry and timepiece destination in Fairfield County. Those familiar with the Greenwich location will recognize the impeccable level of service, only in New Canaan, there’s a completely different selection of brands. In addition to the dedicated Rolex corner and watches from Hermès and Baume & Mercier, Italian lines are represented with collections from Marco Bicego, Roberto Coin, Chimento, Leo Pizzo and Mattioli. For diamonds and pearls, there are selections from Uneek, Gregg Ruth and Mastoloni, among others. While La Du is excited about the store’s offerings, she’s also thrilled by the prospect of serving the New Canaan community. She hopes that Manfredi will be known for “celebrating life and marking occasions, from graduations to birthdays. The gift of fine jewelry is what we have the honor of helping people find.” 72 Elm Street, manfredijewels.com
