Palm Beach, FL – October 7, 2021. A new chapter in luxury equestrian-inspired jewelry begins as Karina Brez, the acclaimed designer renowned for her captivating creations, proudly announces the grand opening of her first-ever retail flagship store. Located at the prestigious 240 Worth Avenue, Unit 116, Palm Beach, FL 33480, this milestone event marks a significant expansion for the brand, inviting patrons into a world where the elegance of equestrianism meets the sparkle of fine gemstones. The grand opening will be celebrated with an exclusive, invitation-only reception and a ceremonial ribbon-cutting hosted by the esteemed Chamber of Commerce of the Palm Beaches on November 19, 2021, at 4:30 PM.

Karina Brez Jewelry has long been celebrated for its unique ability to encapsulate the profound bond between humans and horses, transforming this admiration into exquisite wearable art. Each piece resonates with the powerful spirit and timeless beauty of these magnificent creatures, making the brand a coveted name among discerning jewelry enthusiasts and the equestrian community alike. The horseshoe, a universal emblem of good luck and protection, stands as a cornerstone of the brand’s philosophy, elegantly reinterpreted in Brez’s distinctive style.

A Commitment to Art and Community: Supporting Dreyfoos School of the Arts

Beyond the glamour of a grand opening, Karina Brez Jewelry is deeply committed to giving back to the community that embraces it. In a heartfelt gesture, a significant portion of all proceeds generated from sales during the grand opening celebration will be dedicated to the Dreyfoos School of the Arts Foundation. This vital contribution will directly support the foundation’s robust arts programming, nurturing the next generation of talented artists and enriching the cultural landscape of Palm Beach County.

Dr. Chris Snyder, Executive Director of the Dreyfoos School of the Arts, expressed immense pride and gratitude for Brez’s generosity. “Karina has made an impressive mark in both the jewelry design and the equestrian world,” Dr. Snyder stated. “We are immensely proud that Karina’s exceptional education and expertise have propelled her to such remarkable heights. Her unwavering support for the Dreyfoos School of the Arts is invaluable, and we extend our warmest wishes for her continued success with her magnificent new store on Worth Avenue.” This partnership underscores Karina Brez’s dedication not just to aesthetic excellence but also to fostering artistic growth and educational opportunities.

Introducing the Enchanting Unicorn Horseshoes Collection

The grand opening is not only a celebration of a physical retail space but also the much-anticipated debut of a captivating new line: the Unicorn Horseshoes Collection. This whimsical array of fine jewelry reimagines the classic symbol of fortune with a vibrant, magical twist. Inspired by her daughters’ profound love for all things rainbows and unicorns, Karina Brez has infused this collection with a sense of playful wonder and dazzling color.

“It is inspired by my daughters’ love of everything rainbows and unicorns,” Karina Brez shared, her voice beaming with enthusiasm. “I created the Unicorn Horseshoes Collection to be fun and whimsical—to channel your inner child. I believe jewelry should not only be beautiful but also evoke joy and a touch of magic, and this collection perfectly embodies that sentiment.” Each piece is designed to be a vibrant talisman, bringing a burst of color and a reminder of childhood dreams into the wearer’s life. The collection serves as a joyful expression of hope, fantasy, and good fortune, perfectly aligned with the symbolic power of the horseshoe.

True to Brez’s meticulous attention to detail and exquisite craftsmanship, the Unicorn Horseshoes collection transforms the traditional horseshoe into a delightful rainbow. Each design features a brilliant spectrum of colored sapphires, sparkling diamonds, and vivid tsavorites, meticulously channel-set to create a seamless cascade of hues. Available in lustrous 18K yellow, rose, and white gold, these adjustable 17-inch necklaces offer versatility and elegance for any occasion. Customers can discover this enchanting collection both at the new Karina Brez flagship store and through an exclusive network of select retail partners, making these pieces accessible to a wider audience.

A Whimsical Garden of Jewels: The Signature Trellis Design

A distinctive feature of the Unicorn Horseshoes Collection, and a hallmark of Karina Brez’s design philosophy, is the intricate trellis detailing adorning the back of each piece. This subtle yet significant design element is a direct nod to the whimsical garden aesthetic that defines her Palm Beach retail location. “My first store has a trellis for the walls, and I want to carry the theme throughout my designs whenever I can,” Karina explained, elaborating on her vision. “Think butterflies, gardens, unicorns, and horses. Why not bring some magic into jewelry?” This trellis motif not only adds an extra layer of beauty and complexity to the jewelry but also creates a cohesive brand experience, linking the physical space with the wearable art it showcases. It’s a testament to Brez’s holistic approach to design, where every element tells a part of her enchanting story.
