ABOUT NATALIE J. HALL

Fifteen years ago, a young girl graciously accepted a pair of gold earrings, carved in the image of frolicking dolphins, from her mother. Though the gift was worn everyday thereafter, the attachment was purely sentimental. Five years later, that same young girl, now a young woman, searches in vain for a jewelry style that she can wholeheartedly appreciate. In the midst of this search, a friend requests the young woman's company for a trip to a neighborhood bead store. While perusing the tiny establishment, the young woman becomes fascinated with the many containers of wood, bone, metal, and semi-precious stone beads. She moves closer and picks up an obviously flawed, yet hauntingly gorgeous amethyst pendant. In that moment, the young woman unexpectedly transitioned from a frustrating relationship with jewelry to a lifelong love affair with a curious art form . . * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * The Natural Focus LE (limited-edition) collections showcase the masterful jewelry designs plucked from the mind of Chicago artist, Natalie J. Hall. Her eclectic, stylized work reflects her passion for evolved concepts in jewelry fashion. The looks are audacious and exotic, yet wearable and harmonizing. Natural Focus LE jewelry emphasizes daring color contrasts and distinctive shapes. ENJOY!!! Natalie hosts 3 Natural Focus LE jewelry events in Chicago each year:         >>The Seduction studio show & sale, held in late January/early February,         is a yearly first-peek at Natalie's latest designs and current showpiece(s).         >>The Passion studio show & sale, held in late April/early May, is the         mid-year review featuring the release of the last of that year's designs. These 2 events are usually initmate gatherings held in the Natural Focus Jewelry Studio on the border of Bucktown and Logan Square in Chicago. All jewelry is typically discounted at these 2 shows.         >>The Affair, held in early November, is the last, but biggest show of the         year and attendance is by invitation only.
