About Weinhauer Fine Jewelry
Deborah Weinhauer’s interest in jewelry began in her childhood during trips to museums. Finding herself bored looking at paintings, she began to focus on the jewelry in the paintings, wondering if what she saw had anything to do with the shiny, colorful rocks she sometimes found in a field near her house. In elementary school, she became fascinated with the popular “Twist-a-Bead” torsade necklaces, and would spend hours combining the different colored strands that her parents bought for her. During high school, she obtained after-school employment, funding her gold, lapis and pearl Add-a-Bead necklace, and other jewelry items considered mandatory in her school’s preppy environment.
In college, she chose electives that taught metalsmithing, fabrication, casting, and stone setting; and began regularly making and selling sterling silver and gemstone pieces. She also studied centuries-old principles developed by court jewelers designed to enhance a woman’s beauty, which involved the use of color, light reflection, movement, contrast, shapes, and sizing of jewelry.
Several years after college, an inheritance from her Grandmother allowed her to establish a jewelry business specializing in custom diamond engagement and other jewelry, as well as her first successful jewelry website. Taking a break during graduate school, she manufactured jewelry for sale in boutiques across the United States.
Now living in Melrose, a suburb of Boston, Massachusetts she continues her custom-design diamond and gemstone business, as well as her custom-design business creating jewelry that addresses her clients’ individual beauty needs. Reestablishing her website, she features designs incorporating generalized beauty-enhancing principles with many classical pieces inspired by those long-ago trips to museums.
She and her husband are regular visitors to the many museums in New England and New York, where the classical jewelry depictions continue to inform and inspire her designs.
