Did you know that the value of diamonds is actually rising?
So those gems you inherited from your mom or aunt are actually worth more now than when they were first purchased! So take good care of those lovely gems by keeping them clean. Dirt buildup can cause wear on jewelry that could easily be avoided. Visit your jeweler at least once a year to have your fine jewelry professionally cleaned. In addition they can check for worn or loose prongs, faulty clasps or other potential problems. Between professional cleaning visits use a soft brush and gentle cleaner to keep the sparkle going. A lovely thought and one that takes me right into my next theme – which is the resetting of stones into new, more modern settings. Perhaps a more streamlined and easy to wear design for your wedding rings. Or get grandmother’s gems set into a ring for your right hand! This is a perfect anniversary gift for a loved one. A few days ago I was reading a Dear Abby column about anniversaries and she seems to think that a clock is an appropriate first anniversary gift! Forget that! I wanted jewelry for my first, second and third and all the many anniversaries since)! Of course, if you really want a clock, Jewelry World has plenty to choose from. I love to visit the store and look at the lovely pieces on display. You never know what will be there the next time you visit. There is always something unique and interesting besides the fine jewelry. And everyone is so friendly that I, and many of their customers, feel as if I were actually a part of the family that runs this business so lovingly. Stop by and see for yourself. Something is sure to be on sale and now is the perfect time to do all your holiday shopping. Layaway is available.
