Jewelry designer Laura James Gains, a Jackson native, will be featured in the November/December issue of Mississippi Magazine.

Gains is based in Charlotte, N.C. Her jewelry line, Laura James Jewelry, features handcrafted collections from trendy to vintage. James donates a percentage of annual proceeds to Mississippi victims of Hurricane Katrina, she said in a release.

“I enjoy the challenge of bringing ideas from the runway to women who don’t necessarily have access to the larger variety offered in fashion meccas like California, New York and Europe,” James said. “My wish is for everyone who appreciates design to have the option the to wear it.”

Items in her collection cost $30-$300.
