Fave Local Boutique Debuts New Jewelry Collection — Green with Envy?

CLUTCH YOUR PEARLS — er, emeralds, Houstonians! There’s a new jewelry line in town, and it's perfect for those who want to get a jump on holiday shopping. Debuting this week at Elizabeth Anthony, the exclusive collection from Graziela x Muzo is inspired by founder and designer Graziela Kaufman’s native country of Brazil.

Featuring Muzo’s responsibly mined Colombian emeralds, the Paraíso Collection comprises rings, earrings, bracelets and necklaces priced from $11,000 to $146,000. Kaufman hand-selected the gems for the most dynamic, vivid green collection.


“The exquisite emeralds that come from Muzo’s mine are vibrant in color, exemplary in cut and polish and sustainable in origin,” she said in a release. Kaufman and Muzo share a commitment to social and environmental responsibility, such as utilizing conflict-free stones; additionally, Muzo’s “mine-to-market” process is transparent and traceable.

Adored by celebrities, including Jennifer Lawrence, Jennifer Lopez and Julia Roberts, Kaufman shares she is excited to share the collection with Elizabeth Anthony and Houston.

The Uptown Park boutique is hosting Graziela and the new collection with a trunk show from Wed., Oct. 19, to Fri., Oct. 21 (10am-6pm).

Leadership in Action: ‘Family, Community and Spiritual Connection’ Drives Success for Henry Richardson

How did you get to where you are today? The present moment is a combined history of my family, my time as an athlete, my passion for learning, and my desire to see the world be better. I grew up as a successful springboard and platform diver, however, an injury caused me to seek alternative treatments to heal my body. In that process, I discovered the power of yoga, exercise, meditation, mindset, and nutrition. This holistic approach eventually led me to open a Pilates and cycling studio called DEFINE body & mind. I opened studios around the nation, and after selling most of my business between 2017-2019, I was ready to explore how I could make an even greater impact on the wellbeing of our community. In 2023, I started actively working on a brand new multi-family/apartment concept called, Define Living. The idea focused on offering health and wellness services within a beautiful apartment setting to increase the wellbeing of our residents. Having a strong sense of community is the number one factor in living a happy life, so why not build a community where daily fitness, cooking classes, and social connection are the norm? We opened Define Living in March of 2024, and we couldn’t be happier with how things are being received. We are already looking at building more concepts like this in the Houston area and beyond.
