			<description><![CDATA[<p>From Just Nan:</p>
<p>"<span>After 35 years, we are downsizing our portfolio of copyrighted designs.</span></p>
<p><span>Higher wholesale prices and minimums for embellishments, increased printing and packaging costs and loss of significant vendors have brought us to this decision.</span></p>
<p><span>The majority of Nan&rsquo;s designs feature unique charms and beads, embellishments chosen and imported to enhance each design.&nbsp; When embellishments are no longer available and we cannot find substitutes, we discontinue the design...</span></p>
<p><span>copyright protection remains in effect."</span></p>
<p><span>Going forward, Nan will continue to create an exciting mix of new limited-edition designs.&nbsp;&nbsp;</span></p>
