What is the difference between fine and fashion jewellery?+
Fine jewellery is made from precious materials, solid karat gold or platinum, natural diamonds and gemstones, and genuine cultured pearls, finished by hand and backed by a manufacturer warranty, built to be serviced and worn for decades. Fashion or costume jewellery uses plated base metals, glass, and simulated stones, and is priced to be replaced rather than kept. Everything La Maison Monaco carries is fine jewellery, sourced through authorized channels with CAD pricing and full warranty.
Do you carry Italian gold jewellery like Fope and Roberto Coin?+
Yes. Fope and Roberto Coin are both Italian houses working in 18-karat gold, and they are central to our fine jewellery collection. Fope is known for its flexible woven gold, especially the Flex'it design, while Roberto Coin is known for sculpted gold pieces, each carrying a hidden inner ruby as the maker's signature. If you are looking for Italian jewellery in Canada, gold bracelets and necklaces from both houses are available across a wide CAD range, shown on the live grid.
Are Mikimoto pearls available in Canada?+
Yes. La Maison Monaco is an authorized Mikimoto retailer in Canada. Mikimoto is the Japanese house that pioneered the cultured Akoya pearl, and we carry Mikimoto pearl necklaces and pearl earrings with genuine provenance and full warranty. Pearls are graded on lustre, surface, shape, and colour, and our boutiques let you compare strands in person. Current CAD pricing for each Mikimoto piece is shown on its product page.
Do you sell diamond rings and engagement rings in Canada?+
Yes. We carry diamond rings, including engagement and bridal pieces, from Monaco Collection and Madani, across a broad CAD range. Natural diamonds are graded on the four Cs (cut, colour, clarity, carat), and we can walk you through how each affects the look and the price. Every diamond ring is sold through authorized channels with documentation, ships across Canada, and eligible pieces qualify for 0% Flexiti financing.
Can I see the jewellery in-store before buying?+
Yes. La Maison Monaco has physical boutiques in Canada where you can try on and compare pieces in person, which matters most for pearls, diamonds, and gold jewellery, where lustre, sparkle, and colour are hard to judge from a photograph. You can reserve a piece online and complete the purchase in the boutique, or buy online with shipping across Canada and pricing in CAD.
Do you offer financing on jewellery?+
Yes. We offer 0% financing through Flexiti on eligible jewellery, on approved credit, so you can spread the cost over fixed monthly payments in CAD with no interest. This applies across gold, diamond, and pearl pieces, from engagement rings to Mikimoto pearl necklaces and Italian gold from Fope and Roberto Coin. Eligibility and term depend on the price of the piece, and the financing terms are shown on each eligible product page.
