Courteney Cox, David Arquette Partner With Satya For Charitable Jewelry Collection
Vogue UK reports that Courteney Cox and David Arquette have partnered with Satya to create a collection of butterfly themed jewelry to benefit the Epidermolysis Bullosa Medical Research Foundation. Courtney Cox and Daivd Arquette learned about EB because the son of their close friends was born with it.
"There is a beautiful child named Brendon, the son of one of our dear friends, Andrea Pett Joseph, who was born with EPIDERMOLYSIS BULLOSA or EB," Arquette told VOGUE.COM. "We were not aware of the condition until it affected us personally but, of course, once we got to know this incredible child we wanted to do whatever we could to help."
EB is a rare and life-threatening genetic condition which results in the skin developing burn-like wounds, making even simple tasks incredibly difficult. David and Courteney designed the collection with the Satya founders, Beth and Satya, and used the butterfly motif to symbolise the fragility of the EB childrens' skin
You can view the collection here on Satya's website. Prices for the jewelry pieces range from $24 to $328. The Satya Foundation donates 100% of the proceeds from the sale of the jewelry to the Epidermolysis Bullosa Medical Research Foundation.
