A Look Inside The Newest Phillip Rickard Boutique
Philip Rickard opened its doors with a blessing on the third level of Ala Moana Center’s new expansion Thursday, Aug. 14, close to the Nordstrom entrance.
Those who attended had the opportunity to see jewelers at work engraving bracelets and finishing pendants from behind a glassed room.

One showcase is devoted to designs created for Gwen Stefani’s L.A.M.B. fashion shows.

“You can feel the energy around her, and she’s so creative,” he said. One of the things she had asked for were large bangles that the company had never offered. Since then, he’s found there’s a lot of demand for large pieces.
