HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif., August, 26, 2011 - Jewelry designer, Judith Hendler, featured in the Summer 2010 edition of CJCI Magazine, has graciously partnered with Costume Jewelry Collectors Int'l (CJCI) to design a signed and numbered, limited-edition necklace available only to current members of CJCI. This necklace is available for the special price of only $160.00 (suggested retail value $450.00) includes a certificate of authenticity. The necklace will not be sold elsewhere, so do not miss this opportunity to participate, while supporting an incredible growing organization (click here to order). In order to purchase this necklace, membership in the organization is required. All net profits from the sale of this statement necklace will benefit the "Bring Back CJCI Magazine in 2012" campaign (click here for details). The necklaces will be delivered to the CJCI Convention 2011 attendees personally by Judith Hendler during the event, or mailed if not attending (click here) for information regarding the convention to be held at the Radisson Airport Hotel located in Warwick, R.I. October 21-23. All other orders will include domestic delivery costs. International orders add $10.00. Shipped orders will be filled within six weeks of the order deadline - Sept. 30, 2011. Why get involved? CJCI is an International organization dedicated to the studies of fashion and costume jewelry. Currently, members span the globe from: The Netherlands, Russia, China, Greece, Japan, Italy, Finland, Germany, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and the United States. The organization is in need of donations in order to continue to develop an international jewelry community where collectors can study, share, sell and style Jewelry. Anyone with an avid interest in jewelry collecting can find something of value through CJCI. Whether it’s the opportunity to attend a convention and get to know other like-minded individuals, to participate in online communities, or receive publications, which includes a member directory for 2011, and, hopefully, a magazine again in 2012. How did the CJCI come about? CJCI was created after Lucille Tempesta, founder of Vintage Fashion and Costume Jewelry Newsletter and Club (VFCJ), announced her retirement in the last issue of the newsletter published in 2009. VFCJ published for almost 20 years and hosted a convention for the last 16 years. Melinda Lewis and Pamela Wiggins, long time members of VFCJ, decided to continue this legacy by co-founding the new organization - CJCI. Judith Hendler states, " it is my pleasure to create a necklace for CJCI. The cause started with wanting to continue the CJCI Magazine next year in print, which is now on hiatus due to lack of funds; however, my involvement goes much deeper. As part of the costume and vintage jewelry community, it is very important to me that this organization not only continues to grow, but that we as a community increase the membership and continue to bring educational publications, conventions and a forum for costume and vintage jewelry collectors to communicate. In learning more about the jewelry, we learn more about ourselves, history and the contributions that these talented designers bestow upon our culture. By becoming a member and donating to this organization, together we can build a stronger more valuable international organization."

Notable Press:

About Judith Hendler | Judith Hendler, began her career as a graphic artist. She worked for Neutrogena in the 1970s; where she was exposed to business practices, marketing and corporate culture. Always being a true artist at heart, she transitioned from Neutrogena in the 1980s and embarked on her passion for art. Those early experiences shaped who she is today, which is a dynamic artist and jewelry designer. Experimenting with acrylic scraps from her husband’s furniture manufacturing facility, she created one of a kind bold gems. Judith was discovered by designer Nolan Miller, who selected two necklaces from her collection for Joan Collins to wear on the hit TV series, Dynasty and other shows for which he was the lead designer. Soon after, fashion designer, Alfred Fiandaca, ordered several pieces for one of his runway collections, which soon put her at the attention of fashion industry leaders. Judith's first retail account was Bonwitt Teller, and later, Saks Fifth Avenue eventually serving twenty-two stores. Her pieces were used in many television series, including Dynasty, Knot’s Landing, Hotel, and Days of Our Lives. Examples of her works have been published in many domestic and international fashion magazines, including Vogue and Harper’s Bazaar. Today, Judith gives back to the community by selecting nonprofit and/or organizations that are in need of funding and public awareness, by creating exclusive limited-edition, collectable jewelry pieces. In addition to her jewelry, Judith continues to make art in other mediums, most notably hand-glazed and fired ceramics, and assemblage-mosaics.
