The incredible jewels of Paula Crevoshay in an exhibition at the Museum of Los Angeles ♦ ︎
What is the difference between jewelry and art? In the case of Paula Crevoshay, none. She is a designer but, more correctly, a free spirit that working with gold and precious stones. The result is jewelry to watch and admire.
The Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History has decided to dedicate an exhibition dedicated to Paula Crevoshay (7 December 2018-12 May 2019).
The exhibition is titled Art of the Jewel: The Crevoshay Collection and includes 54 works by the artist-goldsmith, including earrings, bracelets and brooches, next to the museum’s preserved gems and minerals. The combination is not accidental: the exhibition intends to tell the road that runs through the raw ore that turns into a jewel. And those of Paula Crevoshay are truly unique jewels. Also because the designer started working as a painter and engraver before moving to jewelry. The result is his unique pieces, rich in gems, which are small wearable sculptures. An example: the Montana Bitterroot brooch uses almost 300 pink sapphires extracted in Montana (USA) of a particularly rare type and accumulated over the years. Cosimo Muzzano
