designer | | Thank you for visiting my web site and your
interest in my jewelry. The designs have been a labor of love that has combined
my love of horses and jewelry together into a unique brand of distinctive,
timeless jewelry that you can treasure for many years. Many of you have told me
how much you appreciate the true likenesses and often see your own horse in the
designs.
Jane Heart LLC has been
manufacturing and marketing equestrian jewelry since 1994. After a successful
management career with Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Avenue, and Gucci, I took a
leap of faith and decided to follow my heart and create a business of my own.
Jane is my middle name and so Jane Heart was born! Many know me as Jane and I
use it more and more. Horses were always a passion for me, and one of my very
favorite outfits as a child was that of a cowgirl complete with red felt hat!
Jewelry was another passion developed during my retailing days, and when I could
not find a horse head belt buckle that I liked, I decided to design my own. From
there the Collections have grown as well as endured, and new designs are
continually added.
Jane Heart copyright designs
are original, classic, and collectable. The pieces work together so you can have
a jewelry wardrobe and a new look every day. They are manufactured in Arizona
and are of excellent quality, detail, and workmanship. Each piece is stamped on
the back with the heart shaped Jane Heart logo or the Jane Heart name where the
heart is not applicable. After casting all pieces are hand fabricated and
polished.
In 2008 I was very
privileged to announce my licensed jewelry for Barbaro. A portion of the
proceeds benefits the Fund for Laminitis Research at the University of
Pennsylvania school of Veterinary Medicine. My personal goal is to establish the
Jane Heart Foundation which will benefit those in need including both animals
and people. My other project is to write my first book titled Follow Your
Heart - Follow Your Dreams which will talk about my journey.
After living in
Pennsylvania, Florida, Texas, and Illinois, currently I live in Scottsdale,
Arizona with my husband Dennis. He often travels with me and is the official
“jewelry polisher” and my helpful advisor. I also travel and do several shows
including Dressage at Devon, FEI World Cup in Las Vegas, the AAEP Equine
Practitioner’s show, and am excited to be an approved vendor for the 2010 World
Equestrian Games in Lexington, Kentucky.
It is very rewarding to have
jewelry designs that so many clients enjoy…as one told me that lives in
California….”your jewelry excites me.”
