The history of Jez jewelry company, or Jezlaine trademark began in 1975 as a family business in a garage of Albuquerque, New Mexico.
According to its founder Robin McVey, she launched her business on the personal savings. “No bank would lend me money … Now, everyone is banging down my door. I could afford to.”
Noteworthy, the company’s craftsmen manufactured high quality silver jewelry by the method of artistic forging.
Traditionally, brooches, charms, pendants, earrings and bracelets were included into collections – “The Cats”, “Christmas”, “St. Valentine’s”, etc. The marking consists of “925 Jez”, or “Jezlaine Sterling”.
The company ceased to exist in 1999, when Sunstone Imports, located in Morton Grove, Illinois, acquired it.
