The hallmark of Carol Levy Designs is creativity without prejudice or preconception.  An entrepreneur and iconoclast throughout her life whose conversation with stones began with her first collection at age 4, Carol’s life journey led her later in life to express her passion and connection with gemstones in her first jewelry collection.   A college student of geology and history, and with a Graduate Gemologist (GG) degree from the Gemology Institute of America, Carol’s fascination with colored gemstones compelled her to create extraordinary, bespoke pieces.    

 

“Jewelry is an influential personal talisman and the ultimate expression of power, emotion and love,” says Carol Levy.  Through her ESSP – Extrasensory Stone Perception – she identifies the most extraordinary colored gems and begins an intuitive dialog with them that guides the path to the final piece, which is the ultimate statement of its meaning.  “The stones’ destiny is in my hands, and it’s a form of communication and expression unlike any other.”  Honesty and value resonate in every design: the craftsmanship, stones and settings are unparalleled.  Liberated from their ancient journey, the stones tell their story in a brilliant, meaningful and lasting way.   

 

Carol believes in 360 degree jewelry design: the beauty and power must be experienced from all angles, so every detail, hidden or not, reveals quietly inviting, elegant expression.  Inspired by the three-dimensional splendor of fine sculpture, her vision grows through the creative process of choosing extraordinary gemstones, harmonious setting metals and color accent stones to enhance the final creation.  Under Carol’s constant, watchful eye, no expense is spared to achieve each gorgeous piece.

 

Her audience: people who have sought excellence throughout their lives, and seek a thoughtful, discerning expression of their good taste, both authentic and unique.
