NEOSTYLE WELCOMES MOZART

Ornate temple designs are the highlight of the Mozart collection from Neostyle. The collection is targeted to women ages 40 and over. High-quality materials such as German silver supported with natural crystalline in the temple decor are used throughout the collection.

"When you hear the name Mozart where are your thoughts? Do you think of wonderful music, artistic genius, success, youth, uniqueness, and perhaps a bit of rebellion? The associations are multifaceted, and the feelings are singularly clear—Mozart is loved because he touches our hearts," says Bob Lawson, general manager of Neostyle's U.S. business. "These principles provide the inspiration for Neostyle's Mozart collection. Timeless shapes are complimented through sophisticated decorations, the combination of high-quality raw materials, and classic colors with an eye on captivating an audience."
