Welcome to opalholicsanonymous.com where opal season lasts forever.

If you ask me, although you haven't :lol: , I don't think they ought to be assigning carbon footprint numbers to recycled gold unless they know exactly where it came from. Otherwise they're just pulling numbers out of thin air because they have no idea where it came from so why they're allowed to ma...

Too bad there's no way to cap a volcano like this one and capture the gold, but even if it was possible they'd need a helluva big cap. :lol: Antarctic volcano emits $6,000 worth of gold daily Staff Writer | April 30, 2024 | 10:16 am News Gold https://www.mining.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Mount-E...

Oh boy, I"m sure somebody's head must have rolled over this, and I wouldn't want to be the person who listed the price incorrectly, but it's only right that Cartier honored the deal, although they tried to get out of it, and this buyer who bought 2 pairs at such a ridiculously low price isn't t...

This is a followup article on those synth diamonds being created without pressure that gives us a bit more information on them, and as the title says, they're nowhere near being grown in sizes used in jewelry so at least we don't have to worry about detecting them or needing to send them to a lab fo...

I bet the bracelet in the lead pic is remarkable when seen in person, but the photo of it does nothing for me. What I like are the dragon earrings and the panther earrings, and I have to admit the yellow diamond ring in the last pic is spectacular. Check these out. 8-) Bespoke Cartier Bracelet With ...

If you're going to the show in Vegas you'll need to eat and find entertainment after hours so here are some rather interesting options, but I will say that if you go to the cannabis bar make sure you're not still stoned when you go shopping the next day or you may spend more than you intended to. :l...

We have a lovely lineup of fine jewels in this one and I like the peach garnet ring in the second shot, but I'm not really seeing any orange tones in the padparadscha ring, which is still gorgeous and may be due to the camera not picking up the undertones of orange, and the only one I really dislike...

I'm pleased to have found an article on emeralds for our May babies and emerald lovers already on the first day of May, and I'll say right off the bat that the Zambian emeralds in the lead pic do nothing for me color-wise, plus I'm not really into cabs and almost never choose them. For me, I find I ...

In addition to the issues of gold prices rising and LGD prices tanking, this also reveals that keeping good help is a big problem for jewelers now with the younger generations apparently needing to be entertained and coddled to get them to stay, which I guess we shouldn't be surprised at. :roll: Gol...

It looks to me like the watch in the lead pic is repeated in the second shot, so we only get to see 4 of the 10 watches going up for auction, and they're all gorgeous. My grandfather wore a pocket watch occasionally and I always thought the look was quite charming, harking back to olden times which ...
