Charlotte, NC (PRWEB) July 18, 2005 –- Amy Steinberg recently expanded her
art craftsman-ship from textile influenced visual arts to the world of jewelry
with the introduction of Charming Sam. Nationally known for her poignant
paintings (www.AmySteinberg.com), Ms. Steinberg wanted to expand her
creativity into other mediums, including sophisticated necklaces, bracelets and
earrings.
Launched in early 2005, www.CharmingSam.com was
developed by Amy with a younger audience in mind and focused her first
collection on teens. The Charming Sam Teen collection incorporates color and
texture into today's sought after boho look. Favorites include the long &
luxurious Cocktails at Iva necklace and Arriba Getaway, a hot red organic disk
with a multitude of ethnic charms.
The Fall/Winter 2005 collection,
released in April, is focused on a more sophisticated woman and incorporates
more texture by adding in pieces knotted and woven with silk and other fabrics.
Each piece of this new collection is handmade by Amy and her team right here in
the USA. The Fall/winter line introduces reproductions seen on couture's biggest
stars – classic interpretations of beads, charms and chains find their place
next to the ultimate 'must haves' in fashion... soft cashmere sweaters, tweed
jackets and contemporary denim, looks we know that last a lifetime.
Ms.
Steinberg, an artist who was born to love art in all its forms, felt compelled
to work on a line of jewelry and incorporating the same sense of time and space
from her paintings into artwork for the body. Picking and choosing her favorite
looks, and then determing what is "trendy" and "classic" – Amy has pulled
together pieces for women of all lifestyles and sensibilities. Research styles
from around the United States, Europe and around the World, Charming Sam hopes
to create an effortless addition to every outfit. "I love how even the simplest
addition to an outfit can make you feel special," says Ms. Steinberg. She adds,
"Creating my own collection has made me much more sensitive to different forms
of art, and how important it is for everyone to embrace their own unique and
personal style be it through fashion or collecting paintings for your
home."
About the Artist/Fashionistia: Amy Steinberg was raised in an
ethnically homogenous community in Idaho before moving to Hawaii, California and
