Via...What?

Hi all!  This is a just-for-curiosity-sake post for all of you out there who aren't quite sure how to pronounce our name. We get this question a lot, so we thought we'd just throw it out there to satisfy your curiosity. It's kind of like the Matthew McConaughey Syndrome.  Is it pronounced MacConnaHE, McConnaHAY?  I always get stuck on that one. ;)

Well, way back when I started the business I had no idea what to call it.  But I've always had a bit of a unique name - Valeron, so we decided to incorporate that into the title. You can find out more about how we got started by clicking HERE.

So here you go:  The correct pronunciation is actually VIA-VALer-un.  (I'm not a phonetic spelling expert, but I think you can all get the gist from that.)

That being said, it doesn't bother us at all how you'd like to pronounce it.  We hear "VIA-vuhLAIR-in" quite a bit, and I think it sounds kind of fancy. Another of my favorites is VIA-valor-OWN - which makes me feel a bit European somehow.

So there you have it.  VIA-VALer-un.  And if you want to make it even easier? VIAVAL works just great, too!

Welcome!


Welcome to our brand new blog, The ViaValeron Vine!  This is our very first blog entry and we are so excited to have you join us!  Our purpose here is to help educate you about the healing elements of our awesome jewelry (if we do say so ourselves!), and to also share stories, experiences and any other helpful and/or interesting information that we can.  Here we can share some great information with you about our new products, ideas for the future, current industry news, baby trends, and anything that we think you’d be interested in reading - even if it might not have anything to do with jewelry. ;) 

We’d like this blog to be a special community of friends and supporters, so we welcome each and every one of you to leave us comments, suggestions, feedback, links, and whatever else you’d like to share.  But remember, we want to learn about you, too!
