I have always had an affinity for jewelry. It doesn't matter if it's real or costume...I love it all. With Valentine's Day quickly approaching (which means now is the perfect time to start dropping hints to your significant other), I thought I would take this opportunity to introduce you to my favorite jewelry designer: Mignon Faget.
Mignon Faget's designs are inspired by elements reflected throughout Louisiana and New Orleans. She incorporates architectural design as well as natural influences. Her pieces are worn and admired by most women in Louisiana. It has often been said that Mignon Faget is to Louisiana ladies what Tiffany is to New Yorkers. Although I've been collecting her pieces for years, there are still many designs I'm lusting after. These are my favorites that I'm hoping to eventually add to my collection:
Venus' Reef Collar
Rosette Interlacement Cuff
Marquis Dangle Earrings
Large Moonsnail Necklace
Zea Maize Collar
Jeweled Raw Diamond Scarred Node Cuff
Gumbo Necklace
Engaged Column Pearl Ring
5 confessions:
I worked for Mignon Faget for 2 years during college!! The Lakeside gallery.
I used to go to the Lakeside shop all the time! I bet that was a fun job...although my entire paycheck would have gone directly back to her!
Well working there you get 50% off jewelry & 30% off home items. Polishing gloves are free :)
I looooooove Mignon Faget. I was introduced to it by a sorority sister from NOLA. So fabulous!
I love me some MF and I love your fleur-de-lis with LSU Tiger Paw thingy even more! Did you design that?! LOVE it!!!
