Jewelry designer Sarena Traver is more than just a maker of fine jewelry, she's also a race car driver. Traver's company, JeTalia has four collections, Cage, Synchro, Apex, and T2. Traver's father was in the gem business and she grew up as his apprentice.Racing informs her designs in a subtle way, she likes to incorporate movement into the designs. She works primarily in gold, diamonds, and pearls with prices ranging from $1,000 to $18,000. My favorite are her Cage pieces which feature pearls inside gold scroll cages. The ring shown at right sells for $2250.
