Designer Spotlight: Jane Gordon

Jane A. Gordon has traveled from Europe to Azerbaijan to South Africa. She started out in commercial real estate, rode the dot-com wave until it crashed, then started her own corporate gift company, WishBrokers.com. Five years ago, she started a line of jewelry that’s carried by Saks Fifth Avenue online and at its Palm Beach Gardens store.

Her pieces have messages behind them. Her “Palm Beach” line features a gold bowl with diamonds tumbling out of it, signifying abundance, she says. Her designs are available as earrings, bracelets and as a pearl necklace enhancer. For the enhancer, prices start at $1,500 for non-tarnishing silver and $3,200 for 18-karat green gold.

Gordon recently designed a logo for the Palm Beach Club with a line of jewelry to go with it in gold, silver and diamonds and is working on expanding this concept of bundling a company’s logo with a line of jewelry.
