Jude Steele & Francis Gadbois

Jude Steele and Francis Gadbois make the fabulous duo of designers of Jude Frances Jewelry.

Although they are as different as white and yellow gold, when Jude Steele and Frances Gadbois met at a charity dinner in 2002, they instantly knew they would make ideal business partners. Just six years later, not only have they become best friends, but together, they have turned JudeFrances Jewelry into a multi-million dollar brand retailed in Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Avenue, Fred Segal, and luxury boutiques across the country.
