Sag Harbor, NY – August 19, 2021 – The timeless bond between humans and horses has captivated artists and inspired creations across diverse mediums for centuries. From grand landscapes and intricate sculptures to decorative arts, the profound connection to these majestic creatures consistently finds its way into human expression. Among the most personal forms of artistic celebration, fine jewelry stands out, worn close to the body and often passed down as cherished heirlooms. Equestrian jewelry designer Karina Brez, renowned for her elegant and soulful collections, is thrilled to announce the debut of stunning new designs for her highly anticipated Horse LUV Collection. This expansion introduces eighteen captivating styles, meticulously crafted into rings, necklaces, and earrings, all designed to celebrate the enduring passion for horses.
Fashion enthusiasts, jewelry connoisseurs, and equestrian lovers alike are cordially invited to experience these never-before-seen pieces firsthand. Karina Brez will host an exclusive pop-up show and personal appearance at the esteemed Keyes Art Gallery in Sag Harbor, New York. This special event is scheduled to run from Thursday, August 26th, through Sunday, August 29th, 2021. It offers a unique opportunity to meet the designer, explore the exquisite new additions to the Horse LUV Collection, and immerse oneself in the world of equestrian-inspired luxury jewelry.
The Enduring Allure of the Horse LUV Collection: A Symbol of Devotion and Elegance
The trademarked Horse LUV Collection by Karina Brez has long been celebrated for its distinctive and emotionally resonant design. At its heart lies a beautifully rendered motif: the elegant forms of two horses gracefully intertwining to create the universal symbol of love – a heart. This iconic design instantly resonates with those who cherish horses, serving as a powerful emblem of their deep affection and shared endearment for these magnificent animals. More than just an accessory, each piece in the Horse LUV Collection is conceived as a future heirloom, intended to connect generations through a mutual admiration for the equestrian world.
In its latest and most innovative iteration, Karina Brez has masterfully evolved the beloved Horse LUV motif. The outlines of the horses have been further abstracted, lending a contemporary sophistication to the design while making the central heart shape even more prevalent and open. This refined artistic approach enhances the collection’s versatility, allowing it to seamlessly integrate into one’s everyday style while maintaining its profound symbolic meaning. The new designs push the boundaries of modern equestrian jewelry, balancing classic elegance with a fresh, artistic perspective that appeals to a diverse audience and captures the spirit of equine grace.
Craftsmanship and Materials: A Testament to Luxury
True to Karina Brez’s commitment to unparalleled quality and luxury, the expanded Horse LUV Collection features an exquisite array of precious materials. Discerning clients can choose from designs crafted in lustrous 18K solid gold, available in the warm glow of yellow gold, the romantic hue of rose gold, or the sophisticated brilliance of white gold. For those seeking an added touch of opulence and sparkle, many styles also feature a stunning combination of gold and ethically sourced, brilliant diamonds. These precious stones are meticulously set to accentuate the graceful lines of the equestrian motif, adding a captivating brilliance that elevates each piece into a true work of wearable art.
The diversity of the eighteen new styles ensures that there is a perfect piece for every preference and occasion. From delicate pendants and statement necklaces that elegantly adorn the décolletage, to exquisitely crafted rings that become personal talismans, and sophisticated earrings that gracefully frame the face, each item in the collection embodies timeless elegance. Whether chosen as a personal indulgence or a meaningful gift for a loved one, Horse LUV jewelry uniquely captures the unbreakable bond between human and horse, transforming this profound connection into a wearable expression of beauty and devotion that transcends fleeting trends and remains cherished for a lifetime.
The Inspiration Behind the Beauty: Karina Brez’s Personal Connection
At the heart of Karina Brez’s design philosophy is an authentic and profound personal connection to the equestrian world. As a lifelong horse enthusiast and competitor, her creations are deeply rooted in her experiences and passion. Karina Brez eloquently states, “My jewelry collection is a byproduct of my happiness and passion of equestrian sport.” This powerful sentiment underscores the authenticity and genuine emotion infused into every piece. Her designs are not merely inspired by horses; they are a direct extension of her joy and dedication to these magnificent creatures, making each item truly special and imbued with a heartfelt narrative that resonates with fellow horse lovers.
Karina Brez’s journey as a designer is as captivating as her jewelry. A first-generation Ukrainian-American, she first gained public recognition as Miss Florida USA in 2012. It was during this period that her talent for design was sparked, as fellow contestants admired a custom piece she created for her own pageant dress. Her innate passion for gemstones and fine materials led her to pursue formal education, completing the rigorous GIA Graduate Gemologist program, solidifying her expertise in the field. Beyond her design prowess, Brez is also a certified appraiser and a dedicated advocate for non-profit organizations that introduce children to the therapeutic and healing power of horses, further demonstrating her holistic commitment to the equestrian community and its well-being. Her other signature fine jewelry collection, Huggable Hooves, also reflects her innovative approach to equine-inspired design. In 2020, her significant contributions to the industry were recognized when she was proudly voted one of the top three Equestrian Jewelers by Equestrian Living Magazine, a testament to her influential presence in the world of luxury equestrian fashion. This recognition, coupled with the opening of her flagship retail location in Palm Beach, Florida in 2021, marks a significant chapter in her flourishing career, establishing her as a leading voice and innovator in the fine jewelry industry.
