Jean-Francois Albert

Perhaps it is Jean-Francois Albert’s love of sailing that influences his distinct style of jewelry design. Eyeing the simple lines of the horizon, the sparkling surfaces of wind-swept waters or the serene mirror of a calm body of water, he pulls these characteristics into his designs. His clean and simple lines can be seen throughout his collection of signature bridal rings, contemporary diamond rings and masterful colored stone jewelry pieces. He adds incredible color literally to his love of simple and clean. "Each colored stone is utterly unique," says the designer.  "I cannot duplicate nature.  Every stone is irreplaceable; and so every piece of jewelry is a collectible original."  

Jean-Francois Albert has a well deserved reputation as a master craftsman and classic designer. He has won numerous international awards for his designs, including the DeBeer’s Diamonds Today Award and the American Gem Trade Association’s Spectrum Design competition, and is a member of the respected American Jewelry Design Council. His most recent innovation is the Signature-Fit ring, a patented design which may be adjusted in size by the wearer.  This revolutionary concept accommodates fluctuations in the wearer's finger-width, as well as providing a comfortable option for the large-knuckled. This option, coupled with the vibrant color and impeccable craftsmanship, make this designer's pieces a favorite among McCaskill & Company clientele.
