ALICE CAVINESS 1940s - the late 90s -Alice Caviness began manufacturing jewelry to compliment her fashion designs, much like Chanel and Schiaparelli. She had a abundance of flair, garnering attention for her impeccable style of dress. Her jewelry reflects her sense of taste. It was sold only in the finest stores. Her company was based in Long Island, NY. Alice Caviness designed most of her costume jewelry and was also involved in production and sales. Her company also produced sterling silver jewelry. She also employed two designers, Lois Steever and Camille Petronzio. They were both young when they joined. Lois went on to run the company after Alice Caviness died in 1983. Camille Petronzio went on to work at Miriam Haskell
