Welcome to the colorful gemstone-filled world of jewelry designer Richard Palermo. I'm dying to jump into showing off his gorgeous gold and gemstone jewelry collections, but first, here is a little information about this talented designer from the Color Craft web site:

Palermo began his jewelry design career creating fabulous jewels with fabulous price tags for Fifth Avenue jewelry houses like Cartier and Tiffany.

Although he enjoyed designing for the rich and famous and the celebrities who wear his pieces, his art doesn't depend on a price tag. In fact, his specialty is creating designer jewelry that women can buy to express their own style.

"There is a definite lack of designer jewelry that is affordable," Palermo says. "Most designer jewelry is priced out of reach of the average pocketbook. High-end designers usually cater to a small niche of women who can afford extravagant prices for a name. But I want my jewelry to be worn by lots of women. Well-designed beautiful jewelry should be something that every woman can own."
