New Personalized Spiritual Jewelry Helps Us Remember Those We Love

The Loving Spirit pendant designed to represent many forms of love and help raise money for victims of cancer & natural disasters

Columbus, Ohio, February 7, 2003 - Jovian Designs introduces its first product, The Loving Spirit pendant and launches a new web site for customers to design personalized spiritual jewelry. Designed by Tom Manning, The Loving Spirit Collection represents love in many forms.

The Loving Spirit is a non-denominational spiritual pendant that has a stylized human form with arms curved in upward prayer, a .5 carat round gemstone set in the head and either a solid body which represents your personal inner spirit, a heart cut out of the body to represent lost love or a ruby set in the heart to represent found love. A seamless snake chain runs through the arms and completes The Loving Spirit pendant by forming a ‘halo around the wearer. The pendant is available in sterling silver or 14K gold. And with the purchase of a 14K gold pendant, customers receive a free silver-plated heart-shaped gift box with the words Open Your Heart" engraved on the lid and a satin pillow inside to put their Loving Spirit to rest at night.

Tom first designed The Loving Spirit in the year 2000 to represent the loss of his mother who died of cancer. Then on Valentines Day, 2001 Tom became engaged to the love of his life, soul mate and now wife, Ronalee. He had designed another Loving Spirit for her but with a ruby set in the heart and Ronalees birthstone on top. To his surprise not only did she love it but her girlfriends wanted one too. However, it wasnt until September 11th, 2001 that Tom Manning decided to help others through his unique spiritual jewelry to remember the love of a lost one or a new love of their life. A year and a half later Tom Manning has perfected his design and is now able to produce customized spiritual jewelry on-demand through his web site www.TheLovingSpirit.com. (See web site for full story)

It seems that everyone is searching for spiritual meaning these days", says designer Tom Manning. Everyone sees something different in The Loving Spirit. Some see the love of Jesus Christ others see their Guardian Angel. But one thing is for sure, its not your standard cross, angel or heart pendant. Its more like a combination of all three in a classic modern style."

Manning has several patents pending on his designs and a web site where you can customize your own Loving Spirit pendant by choosing between 3 body styles (solid body, open heart, ruby heart), in sterling silver or 14K gold and 12 birthstones (natural or synthetic). The web site allows customers to dynamically change the 144 features of The Loving Spirit jewelry until they have built the piece they want and click the order button.

Twenty-five percent of all net profits will be donated to The American Cancer Society. And another twenty-five percent will be donated to The International Red Cross.

More information, pictures and retail locations of The Loving Spirit can be found on their web site, www.TheLovingSpirit.com. All designs are copyrights of Jovian Designs, Inc., and there are currently four patents pending on The Loving Spirit jewelry. Tom & Ronalee Manning formed Jovian Designs, Inc. in 2002 to sell their spiritual jewelry online. This is their first product but Tom & Ronalee already have several other designs to expand The Loving Spirit Collection next year.
