At the age of 15, Jean-François Albert began a jewelry apprenticeship in his hometown of Lausanne, Switzerland. After four years of learning the trade, he won his first job working for Piaget where he perfected his designing and bench skills.

His design talent is recognized throughout the jewlery industry. He has been awarded the prestigious DeBeers Diamonds Today Award four times, and is a three-time winner of the American Gem Trade Association's Spectrum Design Competition. He has earned membership in the highly respected American Jewelry Design Council whose numbers include 25 of the most influential and talented designers.

Jean-François Albert has a well-deserved reputation as a prolific designer and a master craftsman. His clean and simple style can be seen in his collections of signature rings, contemporary diamond rings and tasteful colored stone jewelry pieces. These trend-setting designs can be found in leading jewelry stores throughout the United States.

Your first impression of JFA's jewelry will be the quality and workmanship of the designs and the unusual yet incredibly comfortable finger shape of the rings. Each piece, entirely produced in his own studio, proudly displays the JFA tardemark, identifying it as genuine. Do not accept copies. Own an original and enjoy the distinctive artistry of Jean-François Albert -- contemporary classics, designed for a lifetime.
