If you are interested in purchasing a piece of jewelry made by Haroldo Burle Marx, you've come to the right place. We are not only the foremost experts when it comes to Burle Marx Jewels, but have the largest collection in the world available for purchase.
In 1981 Alta Leath was on a business trip with her late husband to Rio de Janeiro, where she met jewelry designer, Haroldo Burle Marx. Before she left Rio, she left Burle Marx with a six figure check, and soon after opened a boutique devoted to his work. After the first two years, the venture proved to be a financial success.
Alta Leath’s boutique, The ALTOMAR Collection would be the only jewelry boutique in the world to primarily feature the jewelry of Haroldo Burle Marx, and was the only place outside of Brazil you could purchase his one-of-a-kind pieces.
This partnership in the United States was a first for Burle Marx and lasted nearly a decade until his death in 1991.

The late Paul Desautels, the most influential American curator of the 20th century, and Curator of Gems and Minerals in the Department of Mineral Sciences of the U.S. National Museum of Natural History (Smithsonian Institution) in Washington, D.C., praised the jewelry saying, “ One advantage of handcrafting jewelry versus pre-casting, is the uniqueness of each piece. No two pieces are alike." The gems are at the very top of the market", said Desautels. "Some of them I've not seen elsewhere. and the pieces are meticulously crafted. The quality of the work is all beautifully and carefully done."
Classic, timeless lines characterize the jewelry. Marx has managed to draw from Incan, ancient Rome and other cultures for creative direction, and then blend them all with his own style.
