This article is on the new Platinum Born ad campaign featuring 6 media stars with the goal of enticing buyers to choose platinum for more than just bridal jewelry. Here's who they chose for the ads and what they plan to promote to the public. There's a second photo of one of the other ladies where t...

This looks like a great idea that might be useful to some of you, and I would print them on heavy paper so they look professional. You'll also need a double-sided printer, which is something that I don't have, but I'm not selling my jewels so I don't need these, although it would be nice to catalog ...

I found this brief list in Roskin's Gem News Report that any of you going to Vegas later this month will want to know about. ;) JOGS Las Vegas Gem & Jewelry Show the World Expo, Las Vegas, Nevada, USA – May 26–29, 2024 Couture Jewelry Collection Wynn, Las Vegas, Nevada, USA – May 30 – June 2, 20...

Whoa!!! Now here's some eye candy I can really get into, and I like most of them, although the amethyst 'collar' necklace looks awful to me, and the hair clip in the last 2 shots would bug the stew out of me if I tried to wear it, but the pansy brooch by Oscar Heyman and the ‘Panthère’ necklace by C...

Sweet! From Roskin Gem News report, in case you missed it we have a previous article on this subject that you'll be able to find in the Gem ID category so check that out too for more out-of-this-world images, and I added one from the sub-link to see more of her work which also has the photos from th...

From Roskin Gem News report, use the link at the bottom to access the article and then the sub-link to more of Bergman's article on the Ophir collection. Looks like a scam to...

This is from AGTA so it can't be reposted here and I'm only giving you the headline, the lead sentence and paragraph so you'll know the dates and times of the show, and the photo they used to represent the opal sellers. This lists every gemstone in alphabetical order and tells you where their booths...

First up is JCK's Jewelry Agenda for this week, and although I'm delighted they chose an emerald ring for the lead pic while it's still May, I don't care for it; but there's a great pocket watch in the last pic from 1883, so check out their agenda for this week. :) JCK Jewelry Agenda: Week of May 19...

Yeah, I know what you mean. I sit here waiting and waiting for this computer to do what I tell it to, and eventually roll my eyes and say oh good, I get to hurry up and wait, and for that laughter is the only remedy to keep me using this relic. :lol: This was a joyous week with not only the ones fro...

Here's another one from Jason at Black Opal Direct, and this fossilized shell is quite spectacular before he even dives into it. I have a fossilized shell I bought from our member mick who's a miner in Oz many years ago, but it only has a bit of color so there's no comparison with this. This one is ...
