The Caradiaz team was particularly busy today checking and packing a wholesale delivery for Red Direct, the mail-order shopping arm of the UK fashion magazine Red.

Negotiations started back in April this year, when we met with Red Direct's jewellery buying at their head office in London to show them our new arrivals and discuss the possibility of introducing some of these items in their catalogue for the following season. The meeting went well and ultimately the shopping editor chose the Manhattan necklace, a stylish multi-string beaded necklace featuring silver metal beads on black waxed cotton strings.

This is Caradiaz's third collaboration with Red Direct (we had two designs in the 2007 Spring catalogue and one in the 2007 Summer catalogue) and hopefully one as successful as the previous ones!
