Comedian, Joan Rivers, likely didn’t know that her love of fine jewelry would eventually grow into a million-dollar industry. A lover of Victorian and Russian inspired work, Rivers started dallying in jewelry design as a sideline while she was still actively busy in standup comedy. Today, however, the funny lady spends as much time with her jewelry line as she does working in the entertainment industry. And why shouldn’t she? She designs or re-creates some of the most beautiful fashion jewelry available in the world today. Using the almost lost art forms of hand enameling and plique au jour, Rivers has managed to recapture the spirit of days gone by. Her Victorian flowers and Russian eggs, as well as her innovative watches, are collected by women in more than thirty countries. Of course it doesn’t hurt that she has a television giant, QVC, helping her along the way. Her work can be purchased there as well as through several Internet sites.
