About Jane Zager

A jewelry designer for the past 20 years, Zager's original pieces are made of Italian Murano glass, semi-precious stones, and freshwater pearls, which are her passion. Over time, she has added diamonds and other gemstones to her work.

Zager spends much time in Southeast Asia, where she acquires unique freshwater and baroque pearls. She purchases these pearls, semi-precious stones, and diamonds in Thailand, Vietnam, China, and India. These origins make her jewelry unique, as the stones are hand-picked. Zager works with the Hill Tribes of Thailand to create pure silver necklaces and earrings. Some are one-of-a-kind pieces.

Zager’s work is shown at jewelry events and charity auctions throughout the country. Her pieces are unique and beautiful – a perfect fit with The Symphonia. “I have enjoyed working with The Symphonia," Zager says, "and look forward to a continuing relationship.”
