hair stuff





Linda Levinson Designs...in the beginning it was the humble hand painted leaf barrette. The inspiration of this particular piece was the laurel leaf crown found in Greek art. This barrette was handmade using painted rose leaves found in a craft store.  The leaves were glued (using crazy glue!) to a goody metal barrette.  In 1980, this piece retailed for $12 at various hair salons throughout Chicago. This was the beginning of Linda Levinson Designs. The original leaf barrette was style #HP001. Since then we are up to style HP3336.
Below are some pictures of the best...



















Not So Abbreviated History of Linda Levinson Designs



Linda Levinson’s extensive background in fine jewelry and her love of antiquities are the foundations on which her business was formed.   In 1986, upon the urging of store buyers Linda started Linda Levinson Designs, Inc.  The business began in her parent’s suburban basement with a small sample line of hair accessories and costume jewelry.  After five successful years in business (and a move into a Chicago studio space) again after the urging of buyers Linda designed a line of jeweled picture frames and other assorted items for the home.


It has been over twenty-three since her first hair barrette was sold to a local hair salon.  Since that time jewelry, picture frames and hair accessories by Linda Levinson Designs are sold in the finest speciality stores throughout the United States, Europe, Asia and the Middle East.


Each piece is developed by Linda in Chicago.  She then sends her drawings to model makers in Rhode Island. These craftsmen take the design and carve by hand a wax or metal model.  After the prototype is complete all pieces are  hand cast then plated in Rhode Island and sent back to the Chicago Studio for hand setting of stones and finishing.


We pride ourselves on the unequaled quality of our American made product, excellent customer service and attention to every last detail of our pieces.
