About ABL Design Services
Our Vision
Founded by Anne Bennett Little, ABL Design Services works with clients to bring their creative vision to life, through interior and fine jewelry design.
Anne's speciality is creating eclectic spaces that give old or new decorative items, furnishings and art a more modern spin, be it updating finishes, reupholstering furniture, using on trend paint colors, or adding contemporary pieces into the mix. In the case of fine jewelry design/redesign, Anne is especially adept at helping clients redesign family heirlooms or create new ones from jewelry they no longer wear.
About Anne
After a long career in corporate communications and public relations, Anne decided to start her own business doing what she loves, helping people with their design projects. She especially loves using a client's most treasured pieces and collections, and adding new design elements to create the interior they've been dreaming of.
Her enthusiasm for design includes a life long love of jewelry which began as a child when accompanying her aunts on shopping trips to the French Quarter in New Orleans, where she would spend hours gazing into store windows at beautiful jewels.
Anne would love the opportunity to help you on your next project!

Fine Jewelry Design
A client asked us to create a post-divorce ring using stones she already had. We delivered by creating this beauty! A beautiful blue tanzanite the client had a friend purchase for her in India paired with a pair of pink sapphires she acquired in San Francisco, set in a chunky 14kt gold Florentine setting.
A client came to us with a beautiful antique silver buckle from the art nouveau period that had belonged to her grandmother. She loved it and wanted to create something with it but didn't know what. We suggested a necklace. We sourced a period appropriate chain appropriate and worked with a jeweler to create the necklace. We are still waiting on the finished piece.
