Meet Aly & Rosanna

Ciao, I am Aly, founder and owner of La Bella Luce European Antiques in Northern Virginia, and now the Monastero di San Francesco in Northern Italy. I have been blessed to spend much of my adult life living in Europe, where I fell in love with the relaxed lifestyle, extraordinary cuisine, and the effortless elegance of timeless European décor.
It was through this love of European antiques and vintage design that I met Rosanna, owner of Bella Villa Antiques and Vintage Rentals, and we instantly united by our shared passion of European antiques, heirloom décor, and the belief that meaningful details transform celebrations into unforgettable experiences.
While I am currently living in Italy managing the Monastero of San Francesco Venue and La Bella Luce Decor, Rosanna continues to operate Bella Villa Vintage Rentals in Northern Virginia, which also features La Bella Luce chandeliers and décor. Although continents apart, Rosanna and I continue to collaborate ensuring that every setting we design feels layered, authentic, and entirely unique.

Our inventory is an ever-evolving, constantly growing, combination of antiques and decor elements that are
both elegant and rustic.
Every piece has a story; allow us to be part of yours!
