Through questioning, during the initial qualification telephone call, they determine that you have the financial capacity to participate in large investments, so they mail out promotional materials to you.

The Federal Trade Commission's (FTC's) Jewelry Guides offer specific information on how to describe jewelry products truthfully and non-deceptively and how to disclose material information to consumers. This brochure highlights the sections of the Jewelry Guides that concern diamonds, gemstones and pearls. You may need to scrutinize your product descriptions to make sure they are not misleading and that they disclose material information to consumers. Diamond Weight Decimal Representations If the diamond's weight is described in decimal parts of a carat, the figure should be accurate to the last decimal place. For example, ".30 carat" could represent a diamond that weighs between .295 and .304 carat. If the weight is given to only one decimal place, it should be accurate to the second decimal place: If you say a diamond weighs .5 carat, the diamond should weigh between .495 and .504 carat. Fractional Representations If the diamond's weight is described in fractions, the fraction may represent a range of weights. For example, a diamond described as « carat could weigh between .47 and .54 carat.

Home Page Jewelry to Remember The New Look New Orleans Collection ... View Items Checkout Ruby Ann Bertram-Harker Artist-Designer Ruby Ann Bertram-Harker, a native of New Orleans, whose family has lived in the city for over 200 years, creates jewelry, accessories, clothing and objects from rare and unusual materials. Five collections a year and many one of a kind pieces are designed and produced at her store and studios on Magazine Street. Ruby Ann’s photos of New Orleans historic cemeteries, architecture and cultural events have inspired her popular “New Orleans Collection” of jewelry, which celebrates the unique and sometimes vanishing culture of New Orleans. Jewelry to Remember These selections are some of my favorite classic jewelry designs in Freshwater Pearls and gemstones. They have helped many people to celebrate a special event in their lives. Browse my collection of unique designs and perhaps you will also find Jewelry to Remember... The New Look Ruby Ann's interpretation of modern design makes a hip, minimalist statement. This collection features hammered sterling, leather and cord, sometimes mixed more traditional gemstones and pearls. These designs are just the right accessories for the new fall. New Orleans Collection I was and am inspired by the photographs of the city that I have taken over the last two decades. Many times I would photograph architectural elements or cemeteries only to go back and find some of my favorite details gone, either vandalized or stolen. The "New Orleans Collection" is my response to the ephemeral beauty of the city's culture.

159. Ivory Rose Selected works of Buster Rose Mastodon ivory, wood, metals, leather, silver, gold, obsidian, mineral ores and gemstones. http://ourworld.cs.com/wolfdaughter/

Selected Works of Master Craftsman Buster Rose All of the artwork and jewelry created by Buster Rose is crafted by hand and finish work is done with hand-held engraving tools. Everything he creates is one of a kind. Items can be made similar but will never be identical. Buster likes to get to know people to ensure that what he creates will fit their personal spirit. Buster also does work with wood, metals, leather, silver, gold, obsidian, mineral ores (turquoise, azurite, malachite, alabaster, etc.), and gemstones. The various colors of ivory come from different parts of the actual tusk . whiter ivory from the center, yellowed ivory from the separations of the tusk that have been exposed to the elements, and darker ivory from the outer bark. Soaking the ivory in natural herbs, to enhance a particular area, creates some darker coloring. The Old Chief Originally 22 pounds, this turquoise nodule is from the "Royston" Mine. The work was commisioned by the owner. From a picture in Arizona Highways magazine, Buster sculpted this remarkable piece. He first used hammer and chisels to remove the excess rough material. For the detailed and finishing work, he fashioned other tools as needed from pieces of broken carbide tools, because of the exceptional hardness of this nodule. Calling upon skills he acquired over the years while working with various materials such as stone, ivory, and wood, he worked over a period of seven months (not continuously) to complete the almost life-sized Indian head. The finished piece is 18 pounds. The detail is exquisite right down to the jocla earrings.

View Table Each of the signs of the zodiac rules a particular gemstone, a fact which has been widely used in jewelry from time immemorial. Conversely, each gem conducts the energies of the particular sign or planet with which it is sympathetic. Wearing the stone of your sign is meant to focus the energies of the sign through the gem, enabling their expression in your daily life. The energy of the sign is channelled through the planet (usually the Sun, Moon, or planetary ruler) placed therein; this is expressed and focused through the corresponding gem. Yet no stone is wholly composed of the energies of one single sign, or planet (no stone is pure Aries, nor pure Mars, for example). Each natural material, each crystalline structure comprises a blend of correspondences. We should also bear in mind that the planets may not readily express the energies of the signs, if poorly placed or aspected (something you can only find through your horoscope and the help of an experienced astrologer). Wearing a birthstone can bring great difficulties into our lives, should this be the case. The acceleration of karma brings the potential for increased consciousness, but at the risk of considerable hardship.
