Beverly Grant started making jewelry as an emotional and creative outlet during the years she had to juggle the demands of a corporate career and raising a family. It was fun; it was a great hobby. But eventually, it became more than that. It developed a hold on her that she realized was feeding her soul. Today, designing jewelry—wearable art!—fills Beverly with energy and pride. It completes her. It’s empowering for her to see something tangible emerge from her design visions and feel the power and beauty of her creativity. And it is rewarding beyond measure for her to know that her designs enliven and beautify the women who wear them. Beverly’ designs vibrate with the strength, energy and spiritual qualities of the semi-precious stones she uses, and are enhanced by other distinctive materials, such as Swarovski crystals, Murano Glass, Cloisonné, and freshwater pearls. She gets the creative flexibility of gemstones like amethyst, quartz, fluorite, or coral. Semi-precious gems offer warmth and a myriad of shapes, textures, and hues of color. And there’s the incomparable sparkle and shine of Swarovski—the finest crystal in the world. Beverly seeks out rare and unusual cuts of stones and components because her creations are uncommon. Each piece is one-of-a-kind. So each client wears singularly exclusive jewelry, that when combined with her personal aura, is an explosion of color, hue, shape, and texture that radiates her personal style. She doesn’t design to trends or copy; she creates from her own inspiration. Beverly designs in two ways: one way is from her inner vision. She pictures each woman with an internal vibration and work with her intuition to find a match to the vibrations of certain semi-precious stones and crystals. She often envisions physical expressions of women’s inner beauty and then bring them to life in her designs. The second way is for her to let the stones and materials speak to her. As the shapes and colors and textures come together, she mixes and matches, watching the materials come to life to form Beverly Grant Artisan jewelry designs. She feels the energy of being both designer and inventor, because she tries to be practical in my designs, incorporating elements shre wishes other jewelry had. She created a feature that allows the wearer to adjust the necklace length to various necklines. She designed a decorative extender chain for when the adjustable length isn’t long enough. She uses extra-large lobster claw clasps to make them easy to open and close. Beverly knows that a woman’s personal power, which comes from her mental and spiritual strength deep inside, can be expressed and strengthened by what she exhibits on the outside. This is what she strives to capture in my jewelry: the physical expression of a woman’s inner beauty, individuality, and personal power. The result is stunning, one-of-a-kind, jewelry that accentuates a woman’s style.
