Meet the Designer: Alice Caviness Alice Caviness was a powerhouse in the mid-century jewelry world, launching her eponymous line in New York City in the mid-1940s. Unlike many of her contemporaries who focused on mass-produced pieces, Caviness was known for her "Better Costume" approach—using high-end materials like Sterling Silver and Gold Filled metals paired with genuine gemstones like Jade, Marcasite, and high-quality Austrian crystals. Because her jewelry was sold only in exclusive, high-end boutiques and department stores, it was produced in smaller quantities than brands like Trifari or Monet. Today, Alice Caviness pieces are highly sought after by collectors for their imaginative, artisan-quality designs and their remarkable durability.
