"The Gem of Boston" - Shreve, Crump & Low

Posted: May 04, 2011

America’s oldest and finest jeweler, Shreve, Crump & Low, began their story in 1796. A workshop was opened by a watchmaker, John McFarlane across the street from Paul Revere. This shop continued to grow and expand and in 1869 the name Shreve, Crump & Low was created. Not long after in 1872, the Great Boston Fire destroyed the entire store, however Shreve’s was rebuilt and was well known among high society Boston including, the Kennedys. Today there are two locations, one in Boston and the other in Nantucket, MA.

A few major pieces were commissioned for Shreve, Crump & Low to design. These included a famous Harvard tennis award known as the Davis Cup in 1899 and the famous Cy Young award created in 1908.

In 2007, David Walker bought Shreve, Crump & Low and because of his passion and understanding for the fine jewelry industry, he has maintained the prestige and elegance that Shreve, Crump & Low has always been known for.

The fine jewelry that can be found at Shreve, Crump & Low ranges from loose diamonds to beautiful rings, necklaces and earrings. They also carry various gemstones and lustrous pearls. Mastoloni Pearls is honored to be a part of the Shreve, Crump & Low collection. They carry many Mastoloni Pearl pieces in various colors and styles.
