Karen Telio designer
A bright spot on the creative horizon, Karen’s recent entry onto the Vancouver design scene has been embraced by discerning fashion clients and retailers throughout the lower mainland. She brings a fresh new eye to a constantly changing landscape and her creativity, vision and attention to detail means every piece she creates is a unique work of art.
This energetic and passionate mother of two balances her love of jewelry design with a busy life. With a background in nursing and kid’s event coordination, Karen started making jewelry for herself and friends part-time until her love of creating new pieces prompted her to branch out to over 25 stores in BC!
In spite of the many challenges faced by Karen as her business grows, her love and passion for the art of jewelry design means she will continue to create pieces of art that stop people in their tracks and prompt them to ask, “Is that a Karen Telio?”
Karen:
Congratualtions on your successful new venture. If I can assist by hosting a preview of your collection in Ontario, I would gladly and proudly do so…

Hi Karen:
Just give me enough notice to stock up my wine cellar (apparently your Mom’s friends drink a lot!!!! – just joking) – I am looking forward to hosting a ‘show’ for you….
We will be away the month of February, other than that, I am here.
Hugs,
Wendy
Hi Karen,
Well I finally get to put a face to the name!
I’m wearing the beautiful piece Kelly brought to Montreal for me. It looks great!
Best of luck in your new venture and warm regards and hugs to Marc.
Mona (Kelly’s mom)
Hi Mona,
So glad you like the piece Kelly bought. I really enjoyed having her with me and can’t wait to see her again.
I’ll send your love to Marc. Looking forward to meeting you in the future.

Where are the pictures?! I spotted some divine earrings on someone the other day and they were yours!! I so love that you are doing this with all your heart and that the reception in the world is as it should be! xo Rhi
The site is still being worked on. I can always count on you for support and encouragement. Love you Rhi!
Hi Karen: I looked at the back of the tag on the piece that I bought and the only thing is says on it is Renee.
No #’s I thought maybe Renee was the name of the store owner.??
It has your name on the face of the tag but on the otherside it just says swarovski sterling dipped stone necklace.
I know the piece. I can have an earring made by Tuesday. What time are you in Van?
What is the earring like? I was thinking of a bigger drop earring, as the stone on the bottom of the necklace is bigger. The shoes I am wearing are a little bolder, as apposed to dainty.
Thanks
Colleen.
Hi Karen: I did not get a response from my last email I sent you wondered if you got it.?
I don’t think I will be into Van tomorrow so I will try to find some earring that may go with the necklace for Sat.night.
To bad the earrings were bought seperately Oh well. I would really like to come and see some of your work after this wedding is over.
Thanks
Colleen.
Hi Colleen,
Do you have the code on the back of the tag? I don’t know the piece off the top of my head. You can send me a digital picture to karen_telio@yahoo.ca, otherwise you can come by my house in Dunbar and I’ll design something for you while you’re here.
Karen
