A Norwich jewellery brand is celebrating 20 years in business by releasing a limited edition collection.
Lisa Angel began in 2004 when its founder started creating pieces to sell at local craft markets.
She started a stall in Chapelfield in 2006 and moved into her first sole bricks-and-mortar unit in the Norwich Lanes in 2011.
In 2018, Ms Angel opened a further venue in Chantry Place and, in 2024, she expanded outside of Norfolk to launch in Southwold.
The limited edition collection will be inspired by Lisa's first design and will include an extremely small number of pearl-beaded bracelets and necklaces.

Each bracelet will feature one signature floral bead and vintage-style charms.
“At the time [of the launch], everyone was mad about homemade jewellery with that shabby chic, vintage style," Lisa explained.
"Charms were always the focus so I started out with charm bracelets.
“I did a few jewellery-making courses and learnt tips from fellow sellers at jewellery fairs and soon came up with a few of my own designs.

"I started selling the bracelets on Not On The High Street and they sold out almost immediately, meaning I had a huge job on my hands to keep up with demand.”
She added it felt "mind-blowing" that the store had reached 20 years.
"Time has flown but when I look back on what we’ve accomplished, I’m proud beyond belief of what we are, what we do, and how we do it," she reflected.
"I can’t wait for what’s to come for Lisa Angel in the future.”
The commemorative collection will go live on the Lisa Angel website on September 9 and is expected to sell out quickly.
