Over 1,000 women become homeless in Ottawa each year.
This month, we are teaming up with Ottawa's Cornerstone Housing For Women to support local women in need.
Sisters Helping Sisters
Meet The Jewellery Sisters, Stephanie and Lindsay Appotive. Together, they are the second generation at the helm of Howard Fine Jewellers and its creative sister store, True Bijoux.
As female entrepreneurs in a predominantly male industry, it has always been important for the sisters to amplify and support female voices. ”Relationships are the core of our business. Whether it is with our clients, our suppliers, or our colleagues; it is these relationships that allow us to work at the level that we do.” This philosophy extends into their relationship with the local community. Being born and raised in Ottawa, the sisters are heavily involved in the community themselves, choosing to partner with Cornerstone Housing for Women was an easy choice!

I purchased my fiance's engagement ring about 8 months ago. The staff did such a wonderful job especially Kat who helped me pick exactly what I was looking for and also with an affordable price. If come across Howard, you don't need to look anywhere else because they will have what you need.
We had wonderful services from Howard. I have a very small size(size 3.5) ring finger and my ring was custom ordered and delivered to the store in only a few weeks. Lindsay is so kind and extremly knowledgable. Highly recommended!
