Original jewelry created by hand in Austin, Texas  
by designer, Laura Morgan  
About Our Jewelry

L Designs jewelry is created by hand in our Austin, Texas
studios.  We use only sterling silver (.925), fine silver (.999)
and gold-fill metals.  Our hand-crafted items may have minor
aesthetic variances due to the artisnal processes used in their
creation.  Gemstones, pearls and other jewelry components
are created in nature and therefore may also have minor
aesthetic variances from the sample photographs.  These
artisnal processes and natural variances ensure you will own a
unique piece of jewelry that may never be exactly duplicated.


Product Packaging

L Designs jewelry comes packaged, ready for gift-giving and
storage in classic, natural-colored paper gift boxes.  Jewelry is
nestled in protective tissue paper inside the gift box.  The gift
box is secured with a beautiful chocolate brown satin ribbon
and L Designs logo tag.  If you would like your items to have
additional gift wrap, you may select this option during checkout
for a small fee.

Shipping & Handling

We pride ourselves on offering limited edition jewelry at
affordable prices.  Many items are produced only when your
order is received.   Most orders are shipped within 3 business
days.  However, due to the time-intensive artisnal processes
used, some orders may take up to 2 weeks for shipment.  L
Designs will contact you upon receipt of your order if, for any
reason, your item(s) cannot be shipped within 3 days.  We will
provide you with an estimated shipment timeframe so that you
may plan accordingly.

If you have special needs, please note these in the
"comments" field when placing your order.  We will do our best
to accommodate all special requests.

Jewelry Care

It is natural for all metals to oxidize or tarnish with exposure to
air and other chemicals (i.e. perfume, hairspray etc). To
ensure that jewelry stays bright, store it in an air tight container
or bag.

When dressing, it is best to put your jewelry on last.  Direct
exposure to hair-styling products, make-up and perfume may
result in residue build-up on or damage to the metal and
gemstones.  Pearls are especially susceptible to residue
damage.

If your metal jewelry has tarnished, you can restore its natural
shine by polishing with a polishing cloth.  DO NOT use
solvents, chemicals, sonic or vibratory cleaning machines.  For
great results, I recommend Sunshine polishing cloths for use
on silver or gold.

To restore lustre to pearls and other delicate gemstones, use
a thin paste of baking soda and warm water.  Gently rub the
pearls or stones with this paste and rinse thoroughly with warm
water.  Dry with a soft cloth.
