Novell Design Studio’s latest creations – hand-crafted palladium bracelets with pink gold accents – have recently been featured on the leading fashion blog Kitten Lounge. Over the past few years, Novell has worked hard to perfect the art of creating jewelry in palladium, and now can be consider a leader in palladium jewelry design and manufacturing. Kitten Lounge  was part of the Get Palladium Pretty campaign which focused on being over heavy metal and yet still having phenomenal gorgeous pieces that are luxurious, light weight and is cost effective due to the use of this palladium versus other more expensive precious metals. Here are some highlights:

“Novell Design Studio which makes it precious metal pieces in NJ, presents a new line of hand-crafted bracelets created with one of the Earth’s great precious metals – palladium.”

“Palladium’s purity and preciousness make it an extremely attractive value for precious metal jewelry. Should your palladium bracelet become scratched over time (as all precious metal jewelry will), it can be refinished and restored to look new.”

Novell Design Studio has released a brand new QR Code for the new mobile website dedicated to Studio Platinum bridal jewelry. Starting in September 2011, Studio Platinum will be available at select Novell retailers throughout the US. Look for the new Studio Platinum advertisement in Bridal Guide as well!

What is a QR Code?
The Studio Platinum QR Code is a matrix barcode (or two-dimensional code) that is readable by QR scanners, mobile phones with a camera, and apps available to most smart phones. All you have to do is point a designated lens or area usually found on the underside of iPhones, Androids and many other popular smart phone models found on the market today. The Studio Platinum QR Code consists of black modules arranged in a square pattern on white background – it looks like a funky take-off of a UPC scan code. These modules allow the scanner to get more information about the product, go to a designated mobile web page, enter a contest or many other functions the featured brand chooses to highlight. QR codes can be scanned from a magazine, counter signage, posters, billboards and even online.

See more uses for QR Codes at the QRAnywhere blog.

Last year, Novell Design Studio introduced a very unique line of rings created in stainless steel. These new ring styles are inspired by actual tattoo and tribal themes, and most can be special ordered in Argentium Sterling Silver, palladium or even platinum – the premium metal used for wedding rings and jewelry. TATU wedding rings are currently being featured on WhereToGetEngaged.com, an innovative wedding planning website.

TATU rings are not your father’s wedding ring! TATU is a fashion statement or even a way of life. And since sterling silver TATU rings are affordable, you can have one for literally any day of the week. But if precious metals are your style for jewelry (as it should be), a precious metal TATU ring makes a strong statement! Visit an authorized Novell retailer for more information and pricing.

View Novell’s TATU rings on WhereToGetEngaged.com. Or view more rings on Novell’s website.

The Great American Metal Exchange. Novell Design Studio in Rahway, New Jersey, is taking a unique approach to getting its line of entry platinum bridal jewelry into retail stores. Novell has developed what it calls the Great American Metal Exchange (GAME). It will offer its Studio Platinum Collection at a significant discount to qualifying retailers (they must be committed to the bridal business), and will take unwanted platinum, palladium, or gold inventory as total or partial payment. Novell’s goal is to stimulate sales of platinum bridal jewelry.

“Right now, retailers are apathetic about platinum, and we’re hoping to get them excited about the category again,” says Novell CEO Bruce Pucciarello. “Given the close relationship between gold and platinum prices right now, we think the time is right.”

Deadline for sending old inventory to Novell is July 1.

Novell’s GAME has been featured on The Jewelry Weblog, Trans World News, JQIntl.com, The Wedding Ring Blog, Yahoo! News via PRWeb.com, Your Engagement 101 and InStoreMag.com.
