I loved Ann King's jewelry when she was on.  What happend to her or why did QVC stop selling her beautiful high quality sterling silver jewelry?

Ann King did have beautiful jewelry. I still own and enjoy some of her designs.  Possibly she could not deliver the designs she wanted within QVC's price point.  I do think she sold well.  She is also the wife and partner of Steven Lagos, the high end jewelry designer that is featured in high end stores. It is possible that her demands for that business interferred.

Ann King's jewelry was a steal at QVC prices.  I have a few pieces from Lagos and think her QVC jewelry is just as nice.

@anne0217 Anne King was part of the jewelry Renaissance at QVC....Tacori, Hildago, Anne King, Barry Cord, Echo of the Dreamer, Verragio, etc.  Exceptional designs at reasonable prices.

Wow, that is a blast from the past!  I totally forgot about her.  I do have a couple of her pieces and yes they are beautiful.  Would be nice if they brought her back, though the prices won't be like they were back in the day.

I'm an artisan jewelry fan and the stuff they offer now is not as high quality as the stuff Suarti used to bring to the Q. If I can't get the artisan jewelry on clearance now, I usually pass on it.

@blackhole99  I agree. Artisans used to pass their skills from generations on down. It’s now a dying art & much is machine made and put together in shabby fashion by under age workers w/ little or no experience.

@ShanusReally! Do you think that's the case with the JAI line?

My all time favorite piece was her Marguerite cuff bangle.  At its height of popularity I purchased a few for graduation gifts.  The girls all loved them and was recently told by 1 of them, this bracelet is still her signature piece.

I also still wear her Crosses of the World charm bracelet.
