/EIN News/ -- Signature Designs by LaNorma unveils its new website and Mardi Gras jewelry collection, a stunning, must-have new line that captures the spirit and essence of Carnival.
WOODBRIDGE, VA - September 18, 2008 - Signature Designs by LaNorma (www.signaturesbylanorma.com) is poised to outshine the industry with the recent debut of its new online store. Currently offering six unique jewelry collections, including the Mardi Gras Collection, the company delivers standout, handcrafted pieces designed for jewelry lovers who love unique styles made from the highest quality materials.
LaNorma Huggins-Hopes, owner of Signature Designs by LaNorma, has been providing clients with unique, high-quality, handcrafted jewelry since 2005. With the recent launch of her new website, she looks forward to catering to a broader customer base and fulfilling online orders from both new and existing customers. The new website is a user-friendly gallery and style portal that showcases a wide range of LaNorma's designs currently available for sale, including pieces from her stunning new Mardi Gras collection.
The Mardi Gras collection was inspired by the designer's love for the annual celebration and the traditions of Carnival. LaNorma's grandmother, Maxine Taylor, designed elaborate, elegant gowns for queens in the Mardi Gras courts. In fact, one of the trains designed by her grandmother is currently exhibited at the Mobile Museum of Art in Mobile, Ala. It's evident from the collection that LaNorma has inherited her grandmother's artistry, and combines her intrinsic creativity with her gift for jewelry design to produce inspired, one-of-a-kind pieces of wearable art.
"Mardi Gras and the traditions that it embodies are so rich, colorful and vibrant," said LaNorma Huggins-Hopes. "While all of our collections are beautiful works of art, the Mardi Gras collection is all about celebration and the pieces really come alive whenever someone wears them."
Other collections offered by Signature Designs by LaNorma include "Love Me" collection, Forever 1 Wedding collection, Gentlemen collection, The Bijoux and Chocolate collection, and The Maxi collection. These collections include a stunning array of bracelets, necklaces, and earrings that magnificently capture the colors of each season, the magic of every special occasion and the spirit of those who wear them.
The collections are created using a combination of media, including precious and semi-precious gemstones, precious metals, Swarovski crystals, vintage beads, freshwater pearls, wood, and precious metal clay. Jewelry on the website is available ranging from $17.00 to $500.00. Web visitors can search for styles by price or keyword.
In addition to custom jewelry design, LaNorma has also developed a reputation as a dynamic personal jewelry stylist. She offers custom jewelry design, special order jewelry alteration and jewelry makeovers. She also offers personal shopper services, perfect for gift-giving seasons.
