DORIS PANOS

Doris Panos is one of those remarkable young women who took the industry by storm. A true diamond in the rough. It is so rare to find female designers in the industry, and for companies this young to be flourishing, but there you have it. doris Panos has done it all! She spent years learning about the industry: from gold and metal smithing, to gemology, and even business. She was so exceptional in all fields that she was encouraged to go start her own company. And in 1993, she did!

Her work is shockingly beautiful. It is intricate and detailed. She features lovely stackable bangles that can be worn individually, or together as a stack. Her treatment of gems is a whole thing in of its own. She sets them in fine glittering rings with lacy metalwork.Her instinct for design creates this wonderful symbiotic relationship between curves and straight lines. Simply masterful!
 




All statements aside, her jewelry is stunning to wear. Period. End of story. However,  every woman who wears her make, and  every man who buys her work to collect, should understand that her jewelry isn't just stunning, it is also a sign letting everyone know that even a 150 year old male establishment cannot accomplish what this 20 year old company owned by a single strong woman just did.
