Vernon Wilson is best recognized as the first non-Japanese to win the esteemed "International Pearl Design Competition.' However, his work runs much deeper. As a self taught jeweler, Vernon Wilson had a studio and store in Williamsburg, VA for many years, but after a car accident he re-focused his work. He now lives and works in Panama, where he is CEO of Panama Bay Jewelers.
