Beth Lauren
Designer Beth Lauren Silverberg has always felt passionate about art, fashion and design. She has creatively translated her many talents into craft: her delicate and feminine pieces which are sold under the ‘jewelry by Beth Lauren’ label.
Beth studied art and design and has a BA in art from Lehigh University. During her junior year, she traveled to the fashion and design capital of the world, Italy to perfect her craft. Prior to her studies abroad, she began designing necklaces with semi-precious stones, unusual clasps and a fashion forward look. Her designs have kept ahead of the constantly changing trends in jewelry, but her pieces continue the tradition of gracefully fashioned pieces with semi-precious stones in playful colors and unique materials.
The collections blend uniformly stacked rows, asymmetric composition, and woven and braided elements. The most recent 'tides' and 'infused heirloom' collections are a study in contrasts, merging delicate chiffons with chunky crystal and antique pieces with woven 14K gold-filled chain and metallic threads. The unique and often convertible pieces are all made by hand and carry with them a sense of sophisticated whimsy.
Beth Lauren jewelry is a little piece of modern garnish for the stylish, chic, and fashion obsessed!
Magnes Sisters
Once upon a time, a Russian artist prophesized the careers of her three Israeli granddaughters- Dina, Yael, and Tamar Magnes.The first would create clothing, the second would create jewelry, and the third would excel at graphic design.
Today it's only fitting that the sisters would look to their wise grandmother as the inspiration for their joint venture, a line of high end handbags.The sisters gathered in New York with a dream of designing and creating together. They love working with materials such as Italian leather, Natural canvas, vintage wool and silky linings.
Made in NYC, the handbag are an expression of their individuality and harmony as a trio.
