The story of America's oldest and finest jeweler began in 1796 when John McFarlane a watchmaker and renowned silversmith opened a workshop across the street from Paul Revere at Downtown Crossing. Throughout the 1800s the company grew in its prestige until a consolidation of firms created the name Shreve, Crump & Low in 1869.
Like any epic tale there are stories of promise, success and tragedy. Marred by the Great Boston Fire of 1872 that destroyed the entire store, Shreve's rebuilt and went on to serve Boston's high society from the Cabots to the Crowninshields to the Kennedys.
1891 brought Shreve, Crump & Low to its largest building, a six stories high edifice of limestone and marble. In 1929, Shreve, Crump & Low moved to Boylston Street, one of the earliest examples of art deco architecture in New England. In 2006, under the ownership of local jeweler, David Walker, the firm opened a new store in Boston's Back Bay and most recently in 2012, the store relocated to 39 Newbury Street.
