Company description
PZM Designs specializes in the design and manufacture of handmade jewelry and luxury knitwear.
My passion is personal adornment. Ever since I can remember, I have draped myself in jewelry and fabrics. My love for creating came early on as I was taught to knit and sew by my step mother. I honed my crafts while living in Saudi Arabia and Jordan for 25 years. Living there for so long has influenced my style greatly.Born in San Francisco, California, I graduated from San Francisco State University with a Bachelor's of Music, voice emphasis, and after a long winding path ( which took me the the Middle East and back)... I graduated from the Gemological Institute of America with my Graduate Gemologist Diploma and I also earned my Accredited Professional Jeweler diploma there, as well.I was introduced to metal smithing while at GIA, and now it is really my favorite thing to do..Watching the metal take form under my hammer is so rewarding that sometimes I feel that it is a living, breathing thing.( Sometimes, I said).I have a husband, three boys, a granddaughter, and 2 cats. I sing professionally with my quartets, For the Love of Mic, and the Jewel Tones.
