Jane Frank
Master Goldsmith
As a trained goldsmith for the past fifteen years, I have been creating beautiful pieces that transcend time. In my small Burlington, Vermont home studio, I connect with the delicate femininity of days long passed. I rediscover antique textures and patterns on found objects at flea markets and yard sales and bring them to life using traditional German craftsmanship and modern techniques.
My miniature chandeliers lend elegance and sensuality to the wearer, while simple studs add a hint of refinement to an everyday outfit and fingers shine with the endless opportunities offered by my crisp stackable rings.
You too can have a touch of urban-romance.
Teamwork makes the dream work in my studio 🌟

And you round of pieces. An emerald ring, and an emerald pendant with a tiny diamond and 18 karat yellow gold wing with the fire opal and a diamond as well. #JewelryHandmade #LocalJewelry #LocallyMade #Vermont #JaneFrank#werkstatt

Full roofing action for weeks now. Makes the weekends sometimes loud early but no-one seem to mind. I am glad that it gets done. It was more then anticipated but it will last for a long time after this process. Of course for the @janefrankjewelry werkstatt as well. Thanks to everyone who have not once complained about the mess outside of the shop

My cat was going after this little guy. But we found her on time. She’s going to sleep in a box with us tonight away from cats and dogs. No blood probably just trauma. So hopefully she is going to be fine tomorrow morning to put her back on the trees.

Oh my goodness how much do I love my work. It’s not always easy. It’s a struggle, but then there are moments that just sent me down to show full gratitude of the small things that we often forget
So focused. Apprentices and students and friends who take videos. I cannot be more happy than being with my Monday morning classes.#jewelry#jewelrydesigner #handmade #localbusiness #localartist #art#localartist #

Funny what a complete house cleaning day reveals . First I had a wonderful video for the commercials at WCAX and then I thought I’m gonna continue cleaning my house. Which is kind of a task. But I came across an application map that I made in 2003, so 20 years ago to apply for an art school in Gothenburg, Sweden, I did not get except it, but still it was a great journey, not just to be in Sweden because that’s basically my neighborhood, but also to put myself out there with my minimal talent. But it was wonderful to spend all these hours on my kitchen floor to draw what I see. now I am making jewelry but they are all kind of related because I still make what I see. It was a lot of fun to go through those paintings and I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t be capable to do the same 20 years later. #art#jewelrydesigner #local designer#handmade #artschool #staybehindyourself #
What a fun afternoon recording a commercial for @janefrankjewelry which will be seen on WC a X for the next nine months thanks to Jen, the producer, bob, Matt, jill, and of course, my very good friends, @johannes.n.ziegler, @jackie.bishop and @not.a.eunice.burns .thanks for making it fun. I am exited to have made that experience with you.

It was a super productive day with @su.l.ughetti working, mainly of fire, opal rings, and 18 karat, yellow, gold and tiny diamonds.

It’s done. Emerald cut dark green Turmaline, .3 asymmetrical diamond, all set in 18 karat yellow gold. The Turmaline came from Rio de Janeiro where my dad traveled to and bought it for me.

After a long day of having friends over with a nice Easter, brunch, and some dogs joining, besides kids, this dog is absolutely exhausted that she does not even care if I put my glasses on her or not. Now it’s time to chill. All of us.#easter#friendship #spring#community

I am going to leave this beautiful, Hamburg tomorrow. It’s always so eventful to be home, go to cafés, bars, restaurants, all those small businesses, which makes a city, so interesting. The architecture, the innovative bravery, the water that runs through the whole city, all those bikers and other transportation options. I love being here, and I take a lot of memories with me. If you ever get the chance to visit, Hamburg, Berlin, Denmark, Sweden, etc., take the chance.#vacation #hamburg#inspiration #architcture #europe #europe_vacations #friendsathome #backtovermont
A little side trip to Denmark to celebrate my@moms 80th b-day. It’s always nice to visit my lovely North Sea, fresh fish, harsh winds, rain and the surrounding to clear my head. It’s always beyond precious to spend my time in Europe, no matter where.
#love#europe#travel#family#growth#indpiration #human#art
And again a visit in Denmark at our vacation in Germany. This time for the 80th b-day of my mom. Walks on the North Sea. At day as well as night time. Sooo beautiful.
I wish you all a wonderful and happy, healthy new year. Have a peaceful transition and all the best.

Let the work for winter begin. The AC can go and the wood stove can get busy.

20 years ago I finished my goldmithing apprenticeship in Hamburg, Germany with my extra ordinary Goldsmith master @janbierschenk. He taught me everything I know and I got the best learning experience and passion for what I am doing.

It’s been a long day. I cleaned up the shop for two days, woke up early today, had the garage door open while I was cleaning up and preparing for the interview with WCAX. it was exciting and nice. It was interesting to talk about my jewelry and answer bunch of questions. After 24 years making jewelry becomes a natural and it’s nice to explain to someone new why I do what I do. Thank you elissa. it’s going to be on TV on September 26, 6 pm or 7 pm online.#jewelry #handmade #vermont #crafts #classes #fashionstyle #
I am kind of excited to have an interview with WCAX tomorrow morning. It’s kind of weird to run a very small business and people obviously seem to pay attention to what you were doing. It’s a struggle but very rewarding at the same time.#jewelry #handmadejewelry vermont #handmadeinvermont #janefrank#home
I don’t know why some pieces take longer than others but this one is really close to be done… I found the center piece at a flea market. Iron with gold inlay. We set it in 18ky gold and integrated it in a necklace with coral, onyx and 18ky gold beads. Finally!#chains #necklace, #jewelry,

I am so so happy that this years weddings are happening again after 2years of total desert in the gathering front. Su and Julian came today for the whole day to make their own wedding bands and I am exited that this year seem to get more and more busy for couples who want to tie the knot. It was so much fun as usual and it made it clear to me how I missed this kind of “class”. It’s couple #5 this year and every single time everyone has so much fun and it’s amazing how many of these people enter my Raum also on a personal level.
