DIAN'S STORY

When Dian Malouf began looking for a large (really large) sterling silver and gold ring, she never found one, so she designed one for herself.

She wore her first design effort to Europe and was asked in four languages, "Where on earth did you find that beautiful ring?" She came home, and with out any experience or business background, designed more rings. All were quickly sold. That was thousands of designs ago.

Dian's recognizable designs immediately distinguish her in a market crowded with other established jewelry designers. Her bold creations dazzle the confident woman, many of whom are art ball chairs, CEOs, and on the "A List."

Dian, a 4th generation Texan, believes strongly not only in Texas but also the United States. All of her jewelry is made in America, a principle about which she is passionate.

This spirited pioneer has published two books on the most reclusive ranchers in South Texas. Her limited edition of Cattle Kings of Texas was presented in a hand tooled leather saddle bag with a sterling silver belt buckle. The White House recently requested the remaining copies of this limited edition to present as gifts to heads of state. The regular edition quickly sold out. Cattle Kings is scheduled to be reprinted in late 2009.

Dian's second book, Seldom Heard: Ranches, Ranchos, and Rumors of the South Texas Brush Country is still in print and is available at book stores, such as Borders, and through the publisher, Beyond Words Publishing Company: (800) 284-9673.

This year Dian will complete her third book, written on the remaining most remote and dangerous places on the Texas-Mexican border. This third book has taken twelve years of hearing "no" from various ranch owners... a red light challenge to a green light woman.

Dian's jewelry has sold to Oprah, Elton John, Randy Travis, and enough other stars to fill the night sky. But her "Go Girl" ring has been perhaps her most rewarding personal experience. This ring, along with along with a message from Dian, tells women to "hang in there" regardless of circumstances. The "Go Girl" (part of the proceeds of which go to breast cancer research) has become a comfort to many breast cancer survivors and others who have hit a bump or two in the road of life. Dian receives many letters from recipients of the ring... all uplifting and all with sincere inspirational thanks.
