About Shalla Wista Studio
Shalla Wista Studio represents the most current trends in style and the
jewelry industry. That’s because its founder, Laura Gaines, has been a
student of fashion for most of her life. Laura’s own sense of style has
been flawless, unapologetic and ahead of the curve since childhood.
This talent began to show when she went to work for a well known company
in her home town of Birmingham, Alabama. As her passion for designing
jewelry grew, Laura knew she had to branch out on her own and founded
Shalla Wista Studio in April of 2006. And the world has taken notice.
Shalla Wista Studio has been featured in both local and national
magazines such as: Woman’s Wear Daily, Southern Lady and Birmingham
Metro. Perhaps even more impressive is the notoriety Shalla Wista Studio
is receiving in Hollywood. In May of 2011 the movie “Something
Borrowed” is being released. It stars actresses Ginnifer Goodwin and
Kate Hudson; both of whom will feature jewelry created by Laura and
Shalla Wista Studio throughout the film.
Ms. Gaines, a jewelry designer, works largely in semiprecious
stones, like rock crystal, labradorite and moonstone. She also
incorporates many vintage pendants, chains and findings into her pieces
that she has collected from all around the world. During the day, the
pendants, chains and earrings that she laboriously fashions by, hand
glitter in the sun that pours through the large windows in the studio.
At night, under the inviting glow of chandeliers, they look rich and
festive.
Since its launch, Shalla Wista Studio has grown into a successful
company in the jewelry industry. Laura has worked hard to maintain an
impeccable reputation for creating stunning pieces of jewelry that are
current, elegant and beautiful.
