Maui Jewelry Designer Releases 080808 Limited Edition Jewelry Collection

In the Spiritual world, the number "8" represents New Beginnings. This year, the Olympic games in Beijing, China, will launch on August 8, 2008. Maui jewelry designer, Shirley Lecomte, is launching her second "Once in a Lifetime" pendant series, specifically designed for the Designs By Shirley Jewelry Collection. This design is to commemorate the upcoming 08/08/08 date.

The pendants, "Infinite Prosperity" and "Once in a Lifetime" which are made from heavy, high quality white or yellow 14KT & 18 KT Gold and Fine Sterling Silver, are created on the island of Maui, HI. The first 100 Limited Edition pendants will be signed & numbered.

"I created the '888' pendant design with 'Infinite Prosperity' in mind. This bold, unique design is representative of the creative flow embodied by the significant 08/08/08 date," said Lecomte.

These finely hand-crafted pendants are uniquely styled by jewelry designer Shirley Lecomte, who has been living and working on Maui for 20 years. She has managed jewelry stores, art galleries and has had successful collaborations with other jewelry designers. http://www.designsbyshirleyhawaii.com, http://www.070707jewelry.com
