About Me - My Biography

Leigh is my name, Born in Melbourne,  married & moved to live in Noosa with my Husband & son, I have always loved to be creative,  always loved  special pieces of Jewellery. I started my business 15 years ago  Eumundi Markets successfully building our jewellery with my  business partner, after 8yrs we went our separate ways I went solo  6yrs ago & built an online store.,calling it Leigh Fortington Jewellery….  A love for Pearls & living a beach life style in my favourite place Noosa,  I focused more on my styling to create the  LOOK of BoHo Style, pearls combined with leather is very stylish, I have designed up many styles that you can wear walking along the beach wearing your bathes or  for that special occassion. Incorparting this style & with my love for pearls, I created an Earring Hook 12 yrs ago using sterling silver – 9ct Gold   that just works.….I designed them that they  sit perfectly on the Lobe, So very Comfortable wouldn’t know you had them on, it took many attempts to get this right,  they are weighted perfectly, I know there are many designs out there,  that are very similar BUT mine are weighted so perfectly, selling  Hundreds of pairs of Earrings using these Hooks both with pearls & semi precious stones.

I would love to be know for these Earrings as no matter what size pearl or semi precious stone they are Fabulous. I have many 5* reviews on my website from customers wearing my earrings with these amazing hooks
