Jewelry Designer Showcases Family Legacy at N. Fox Jewelers

SARATOGA SPRINGS — Designer Louis Mazza sold his wares at a special two-day trunk show at N. Fox Jewelers in downtown Saratoga Springs last week.

Louis is from the sixth generation of the Mazza family, who have been purveyors of fine gemstones since 1775, supplying famed New York retailers like Tiffany’s and Bergdorf Goodman. The American iteration of the business began in the early 1900s, when Louis’ great grandfather arrived in the USA. In the 1950s, Louis’ grandfather and great uncles expanded the operation when they started designing and manufacturing their own jewelry.

Some of Louis’ more unique pieces at N. Fox included a mother’s necklace that contains an ancient Roman coin, a Pope Leo VI necklace that features a Byzantine coin minted in 892 AD, and a necklace with Venetian glass depicting the gods Mars and Venus.
