For the 20th anniversary of Hurricane Katrina, New Orleans native brand, Mignon Faget, is launching its Beyond Katrina design. The collection is a beautiful symbol that serves as both a tribute and a talisman to honor the past while looking forward to the future with grace and strength. As a business that endured the storm alongside its city, Mignon Faget reflects on two decades of recovery, strength, and the unbreakable bonds formed in Katrina’s wake. 

Melding architectural motifs, fleur-de-lis forms, and organic curves reminiscent of wrought iron and Gulf Coast flora, the Beyond Katrina Pendant and Beyond Katrina Pin are drawn from Mignon Faget’s beloved Legacy Collection. These elements are artistically intertwined, much like Katrina itself has become interwoven into the collective memory and identity of the community. 

Mignon Faget’s identity is woven into the resilient spirit of New Orleans and the Gulf Coast. In the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, the brand began crafting commemorative designs to honor milestone anniversaries—reflecting both personal and collective recovery, as the business and its community were profoundly impacted.

Twenty years later, Mignon Faget’s latest commemorative design honors both memory and momentum. It calls on collectors to reflect on the storm’s legacy and recognize the strength of a community that has risen, rebuilt, and redefined its future.

Shop these new designs now in-store or at MignonFaget.com. Available in sterling silver and 14K gold, with prices ranging from $80-$826.
