Honora Has Hope For Haiti

Friday, January 22nd, 2010

Flag of Haiti

The need for aid in Haiti is clear and Honora wants to help.  With this in mind we have created a pearl necklace from the colors of Haiti’s flag and will donate 100% of the proceeds to the ongoing efforts.

Inspired by initiatives from our friends at 12for12K, we will donate all proceeds from our 36″ 7-8MM Cherry and Navy Blue Freshwater Pearl Necklace to the Naples, FL based charity, Hope for Haiti.

For nearly 20 years, this amazing charity has improved the quality of life in Haiti and they have been working tirelessly since the earthquake in Port-Au-Prince.  We chose Hope for Haiti as they have been engaged in improving life in Haiti long before the human disasters of the past month.  Thanks to their immense volunteer base, they are able to give $0.95 of every dollar directly to humanitarian program needs.   You can read Hope For Haiti’s press release about their aid program here.

Honora will donate 100% of the proceeds from every purchase of the Hope For Haiti necklace directly to their charitable efforts.  This necklace is only available through The Honora Store in New York City and can be ordered via phone at 212.308.8707 or through email at retail57@honora.com.

If you would rather make a personal contribution directly to the charity, simply use the widget below and 100% of your donation will go to Hope For Haiti (12for12K is a fully volunteer-based call-to-action with no admin costs).

  Blue Moon

Tuesday, January 12th, 2010

Blue Moon from HonoraA Blue Moon is a 13th full moon occurring within a given year.  The blues and grays surrounding each full moon have inspired our latest selection of pearl jewelry.  As it turns out, December 31st was the first time in 19 years that we experienced a Blue Moon on New Year’s Eve.  This could not have come at a better time as everyone at Honora is so excited to launch our latest pearl color combination aptly named, Blue Moon.  We are so excited to premiere this rare attraction of Gray, Teal and Navy Freshwater Pearls as our first new collection for 2010!

This evocative color collection of Cultured Pearls felt like the perfect way to start the new year.  Our Sr. Merchandising Manager, Larry Lippert, “L’array”, who creates our color combinations, had this to say, “Denim is center-stage in fashion again and I wanted to work with our newest blue tones to make a statement, even when dressing casually.”

We think you will love the 8-9 MM selection featured in our NY Times ad.  You can click here to see our entire selection of Blue Moon designs on our Collections Page.  These items are available now at our retail store on Madison Avenue and at your local authorized Honora dealer.

You can always reach us for more information by calling us at 212.308.8707, emailing us at retail57@honora.com or go to our Where to Buy page for your local retailer.
