Paul Morelli

Paul Morelli’s first memories of creating beauty were helping his parents, who were theatrical costume designers, put together elaborate costumes. He credits particularly the women in his life: mother, wife and two daughters and their sense of fashion as having a strong impact on his creations today. He began designing jewelry in the ‘70s after pursuing a college education in art. Displaying his works in small galleries, but at the same time sending his more prominent pieces to art galleries in Boston and New York.

Paul Morelli has built his career as one of America’s pre-eminent jewelry designers on his reputation of creating modern design with profound attention to detail and delicacy. Each piece is handmade and reflects his quiet dedication to superior craftsmanship and his artistic curiosity. His business is a family operation based in Philadelphia. Paul produces all of his jewelry on-site, by hand, in his own workshops from conception to completion. In the tradition of European masters, Morelli creates the exquisitely refined and intricate jewelry that in the end appears contemporary and clean of line.
