A JEWELLERY range created by a North East designer has now been launched in the USA.
Salome - handmade collections featuring precious gems and crystals - was founded by Tyneside-based designer, Kellie Daniels.
Following its Newcastle launch, the brand, was snapped up by Edinburgh’s Covet store and Wolf & Badger, in London’s Mayfair.
Such was its success that Wolf & Badger’s New York store and Hemline, in New Orleans’ fashionable French Quarter, followed suit.
“Obviously I knew from the success of the collections in Britain that there was a strong and growing market for my jewellery,” said Kellie, “but even I had no idea it would catch on as quickly in the US as it has.
“Within two weeks of going on sale, I had repeat orders from both shops.”
