Judy Mayfield – Sapphires, travel and jewelry design

Judy Mayfield Zimmerman Judy Mayfield-Zimmerman first came to designing with gemstones after an epiphany while working in Mallorca, Spain. Promising herself that she’d could travel the world and create a life of wealth, she became one of the first to work with rainbow sapphires, hosted television shows on two continents and has sold to Harry Winston and Tiffany’s.

She speaks about her adventures, often being the only Caucasian woman that miners had ever met; travel tips when traversing time zones and her plans for future designs steeped in Balinese traditions.
