LAINE Trunkshow with Gordon Aatlo!

LAINE's very first trunk show, June 5-7 2009, will be your first opportunity to see the new LAINE designs in person as well as a chance to purchase at trunk show prices (meaning there are exciting discounts to be had)!

LAINE will be exhibiting with Gordon Aatlo at the International Gem & Jewelry Showcase in San Mateo, CA from June 5th - 7th.

Hours are Friday 12pm-6pm, Saturday 10am-6pm and Sunday 11am-5pm. The show will be held at The San Mateo County Expo Center, 2495 South Delaware in San Mateo, CA (directions & map)

Back from the set!

My pieces came back from the set of Curb Your Enthusaism today!

Look for the Mignonette Bracelet and Caviare Earrings in a couple different season 7 episodes (I can't show photos of the pieces being worn yet, but as soon as the episodes air I will blog again to share what I have!)

LAINE...Coming Soon!

Finally, after months of planning and talking ad nauseum about this "new collection called LAINE" (those of you who follow me on twitter or facebook will recall being annoyed by this, the rest of you have been spared and this is the first you are hearing about the new collection!) it will be launching very soon, May 20th in fact!

Aside from the launch date I don't have much to report at the moment, as I work best under pressure and am still not ready for the official launch next week, but please stay tuned for pics of my upcoming features in JCK LUXURY Magazine (exciting!) and on season 7 of HBO's Curb Your Enthusiasm (equally exciting!).

Meanwhile, I will leave you with a preview of a new one of a kind LAINE piece, The Lára Necklace...

A delicate chain of solid 18k gold and tiny white pearls has been accented with pendants of hand-wrapped solid 18k gold, white keshi pearl petals, aquamarine, a large keshi pearl set with a single opal in an 18k gold bezel. The centerpiece of this necklace is an antique 9ct rose gold locket (c. 1880). Inside the locket is a black velvet backing with an antique gilt crescent moon set with seed pearls and two dozen small white freshwater pearls that move freely within the locket.
