About L Designs...
| Original jewelry created by hand in Austin, Texas by designer, Laura Morgan |
| Laura Morgan is an independent jewelry designer based in Austin, Texas and is founder of L Designs. Laura's love of art and design began at a young age when trips to the library would mean hours with architecture and landscape design books. She has also been a painter since first taking classes at the age of 7. While offered scholarships to several well-known design schools on the east coast, Laura decided to opt for a “more practical” career in tourism and corporate event management. Never-the-less, while attending North Carolina State University, Laura found herself in very “non-practical” courses such as graphic and landscape design, and then even gemstone cutting, cabachoning, silversmithing and ceramics at the university’s craft center. She never guessed that these experiences would all come together in the form of a new career and new business just a few years later. Laura’s varied art, design and fine craft influences are apparent in the characteristic sculptural details, hand- wrought textures and unique composition of L Designs jewelry. Laura’s designs are further inspired by both an appreciation of nature and an affinity for travel. These elements translate into organic shapes and a globally- inspired color pallet. Laura continues to be inspired by the sense of movement, the spirit of a favorite place or the pure emotion that can be captured through the careful and creative use of metal and stone. No matter where travels take her or what inspiration is found next, Laura Morgan continues to design beautifully classic and collectible L Designs jewelry through which she shares both a story and a passion with the wearer. |
“I believe L Designs jewelry is
unique in the statement it allows
the wearer to make. My jewelry is
meant to be noticed. It’s meant to
elicit a second glance. It’s meant
to make a woman feel like she is
sharing a little glimpse of who she
is inside with the world outside.
One piece may share a woman’s
story through a sexy whisper while
another may declare it boldly,
unmistakably.
When designing, my approach has
been compared to the process of
creating sculpture. I’m constantly
manipulating balance,
composition and form as a piece
comes together. I strive for the
unexpected and I try to incorporate
elements that make people
question their assumptions about
the way jewelry ‘should’ look.
Ultimately, my passion lies in this
process.”
