Claire's Accessories ~ Shame On You!

Imagine going into a shop and finding a direct copy of the jewellery you designed and created, not only a possible copy, but an absolute direct copy.  That's exactly what happened to Laura Figiel, a graphic designer from Kingston Upon Thames.  Claires Accessories are selling a direct copy of her Hello telephone necklace.

You can offer Laura your support HERE.

ADDED 23/02/12:  You would think that with all the negative publicity this drummed up, that Claries would be more careful in the future, but just over a year later they are up to their old copying tricks  read my new post here

I'm so SO sick of hearing this happen time and time again to indie artists and designers and they don't get a scrap of compensation. :(
