This amazing mid century vintage Della Robbia of the Annunciation is very rare. Measuring 11.5x14.5 it is in wonderful condition for its age.
Just a few of the fabulous children’s Christmas books available at the bookstore.
This is a perennial favorite at the bookstore for Advent. Children remove a figure each day from the numbered pockets and create the crèche scene which is complete by Christmas Day. Call to reserve one, as supplies are limited.
This Friday afternoon November 20 and Saturday morning November 21, City Of Angels jewelry trunk show will take place. These pictures show just a few of the beautiful items that will be available for purchase. The trunk show will be accessible by appointment only. Half hour appointments are available.Call to reserve a time.
Thanksgiving celebrations this year will be smaller than usual.But they can be just as festive. Our ceramic table top Thanksgiving decorations are 50% off at the bookstore.
Brand new to the Bookstore this adorable and unbelievably soft and cuddly teddy bear is accompanied by a message of comfort for trouble times. The full size bear is $28.95. Smaller Bears for special occasions are just $15.95. These lovable guys make a perfect gift for people of any age.
This exceptional 14 inch diameter Saint Anthony Della Robbia is very unusual. Priced at just $375, it would be a lovely addition to anyone’s collection of these beautiful pieces.
Thanks to volunteers Krista and Diane, Holy Family Bookstore’s Dia de Los Muertos display is fabulous!!! And the best part is that selected items are 50% off.
The book Christ in the Storm is something more than a coffee table book for Catholics living during COVID-19. In this liturgy celebrated by Pope Francis, and now in this meditation, each of us is invited to a school of devotional prayer one that may renew parish and family life alike. On March 27, 2020, Pope Francis stood alone in an empty St. Peter’s Square, offering hope to the world in the midst of the coronavirus with an extraordinary Irbi et Orbi blessing and exp...osition of the Blessed Sacrament. It was an iconic moment, and one that showcased the best of catholicism beauty, truth, and goodness and reminded believers and skeptics alike of God‘s blessing, forgiveness, and healing. Christ in the Storm gathers color photos, readings, the pope’s homily, his blessing, and an explanation of the symbolism throughout the event as a powerful reminder that Jesus is always with us and that God‘s love never fails. We have a small supply of these books and will order more. Call if you would like us to reserve one for you. The price is $19.95. See more
I know it’s not yet Halloween, but we have had customer inquiries about Christmas cards. We have now put out our beautiful Caspari religious cards and as has been our practice in the last few years, they are 15% off until Christmas. Come early for the best selection.
This is a Della Robbia image I have never seen in the 20 years that the store has been open. What a beautiful gift for a brand new mom! It is 6 in diameter and the price is $150.
These annual publications arrived about a month early this year. The price $4.50, is the same as last year. These missals cover the entire liturgical year beginning with the first Sunday of Advent Call to reserve copies.
This book has a starred review in Booklistand was listed as an invaluable work about Latinas, faith, and community. God calls Latinas to lives of influence. Natalia Kohn Rivera, Noemi Vega Quinones, and Kristy Garza Robinson share their own journeys as Latinas and leaders. They find mentorship in 12 courageous women of the Bible including Esther, Rahab, Mary, and Lydia, who navigated the challenges of brokenness and suffering, being bicultural, and crossing borders. As we deepen our spiritual and ethnic identities, we grow in intimacy with God and others and become better equipped to influence others for the kingdom.
Several years ago we carried a beautiful line of jewelry from Michal Golan. She is an Israeli born artist who now lives in New York. Her beautiful cross jewelry creations were very popular in the bookstore and I’ve decided to bring them back. Michal’s jewelry is definitely influenced by the Byzantine art that she studied for many years. The best part of her jewelry is that is all Made in the USA.
We have found a way to do a trunk show for City Of Angels jewelry, even during these challenging times. Seen here are just two of the beautiful pieces we currently have in the store for sale. One is sterling silver set with diamonds the other is a beautiful marcasite Madonna with stars around her head. But back to the trunk show, it will take place on November 20 and 21st. Meg will be setting up her beautiful jewelry in the brides’ room adjacent to the bookstore. She will see people by appointment only. If you are interested in an appointment or have questions about the trunk show please contact us at 626-403-6133. We will be posting pictures of more beautiful jewelry pieces soon, including some lovely reproduction necklaces and earrings that Meg is creating.
These are just four of the great new books that I added to the sale cart this morning. There are some real treasures on the cart. In case you’re looking for some Covid reading, the sale cart at the bookstore is a perfect place to start.
Believe it or not, this is a reproduction of an 18 inch Della Robia made of resin. Not ceramic and not made in Italy, it can still be used in a shaded area outside with proper treatment. And best of all the price is $150, just a fraction of the cost of a ceramic Della Robbia from Italy. We have just one of these pieces in the store, so call us if you’d like us to reserve it for you.
