While moving apartments, artist Jesse Utt put his foot through one of his most prized paintings, one depicting his version of Queen Esther from the Bible and Ganymedes from Greek mythology. Not wanting to lose the most important part of the painting, he fashioned it into a canvas wrist cuff with some jewel snaps purchased at the Jewish fabric store. On the subway and on the streets of New York people would ask Jesse where could they get one of his cuffs. And so, Zachary Pryor, urban inspired accessories was born. Zachary, which his mother had wanted him to name him so badly and Pryor, from the maiden name of his most loved relative, with whom he felt a strong soul connection, his grandmother, Queva.
