“Clothes and jewelry should be startling, individual. When you see a woman in my clothes you want to know more about them. To me that is what distinguishes good designers from bad designers.” Alexander McQueen

That statement from fashion icon Alexander McQueen has been a beacon of motivation for fashionistas and designers since he uttered those now legendary words. As was the case for Paula Crevoshay. Recently I had the opportunity to attend a private fashion show at Neiman Marcus for some of their elite shoppers. Among the various lines of clothes that were shown off, the show stealer was clearly the Crevoshay jewels that the models were wearing down the runway.

Paula always had a passion for art, and like many of the great artists in history, Crevoshay’s gifts were recognized early. When she was 5, her teachers were amazed by her precocious skill and arranged for her to receive private tutelage in art; and with that encouragement, her path was set. At the tender age of 22 she embarked on a career as a professional artist after graduating with a master’s degree in Fine Art with Honors.

Crevoshay believes that beauty and art are essential to a happy and healthy life as beauty nourishes the soul like water replenishes the body. She feels that bringing beauty into people’s lives is both a high calling and a great privilege. Most who view her work are moved by this inspiration. She creates art with the vision that it can help bring peace and mutual understanding to the world because the appreciation of beauty transcends culture, politics and religion, and springs from our common human heritage.

Crevoshay jewels are cherished for their great beauty, and their superior design, materials and craftsmanship, as well as their exclusive nature as original art. They can be found in important public and private collections including those of the Smithsonian, the Carnegie, the Gemological Institute and other museums.

Recently Crevoshay was invited to participate in the inauguration of the new Mary Lou Whitney Decorative Arts wing at the Headley-Whitney Museum in Kentucky. A forty-piece collection entitled “Beyond Color” was created for the event. Crevoshay jewels return us to a more genteel time, when, in the words of Gary Walther, “Luxury had denoted scarcity, quality, pedigree, authenticity, and class.” Crevoshay is for the discerning shopper who thinks like Priscilla Glover: “I want something original, special, beautiful, charming, and even precious…”
