What is Meena Kari Jewelry?

Finest ‘Meena Kari’ Jewelry is made by skilled craftsmen in Rajasthan, India one of the richest states in Art, Culture and Heritage. Meena Kari is a method of gem setting, consisting of inserting a gold foil between the stones and its mount. Gems are bedded in a surround of gold lea instead of being held by a rim or claw. It received great patronage during the Mughal era and some of the most mesmerizing pieces were created during those times. ‘Meena Kari’ work is a work of art. It involves enameling with brilliant colors and designs which is done on the reverse of a jewelry piece, along with the ‘Meena Kari’ setting on top. ‘Meena Kari’ is also known as Bikaneri or Jaipuri jewelry.
Despite the advent of fusion jewelry of the modern days, for occasions like weddings and festivals, Indian women always prefer the traditional and the ethnic look. Hence, this exquisite form of art flourishes and is patronized even today.

Exclusive Larimar Silver Jewelry

Larimar is the beautiful Blue Gemstone of the Caribbean also known as

Pectolite. It is found the the Dominican Republic and carries lovely

variations of deep blue to light blues and whites resembling the ocean.

After trips to the Dominican Republic, and falling in love with the beautiful stone, we wanted to bring a new type of Larimar Jewelry to life. We found that although the stones were stunning in the jewelry found in it’s native land, the silver quality was not the quality we wanted to carry. The highest grade stones are often found set in gold, but for our silver jewelry customers, we wanted to carry beautiful Larimar stones set in quality sterling silver settings.

Larimar ranges in price for it’s color intensity and weight. We often try to find the bluest and most flawless stones in our jewelry. This is not always easy. Our stones are picked in the Dominican Republic and our silver work is carried out in Bali or Europe for finer quality settings. The designs are modern and great care is taken in selecting each piece of Larimar to suit it’s own unique setting.

Each piece in our collection have their very own story to tell. Have a look for yourself at our collection and treat yourself or someone you love to a piece of Beautiful Larimar Jewelry

Rock tumblers

Jewelry & Watches February 17th, 2008

Rock tumbling and jewelry making are a fun hobby providing you have a decent tumbler.My son wanted to start doing it and started collecting stones from here and there(some we bought and some he found).Well the next logical thing to do was buy a tumbler so we bought two of the Chicago Electric (they are the red with 1 or 2 black rubber drums) one was a 2 drum(6 lb cap.) and one was a single drum (3 lb.cap.)and let me tell ya those things are cheap junk.niehter one has made a complete cycle without breaking down. It takes about 4 weeks to get finished stones. 1 week for each step in the polishing process and we are running 4 steps)

We got the tumbler from Ebay and set it up and started tumbling stones,well the first thing the little O-ring belts will break in hurry so if you get one of these type you need to buy atleast 5 of these little belts cost on ebay over $1.00 each plus shipping. Then when ya think you have that problem covered buy purchasing the spare belts there is a small electric motor with a plastic drive wheel on it.that will break or melt so that it won`t work..Dont know how much it costs haven`t found one yet..Probably won`t look either.I won`t buy any that have this same type drive system.I have seen some that have this style drum drive and won`t buy those either.

If you want to break your kids heart get one of these models kids already are a little short on patience so they are doing good to wait a week to see each stage completed. Take them out in the garage and look to see a broken belt or a melted fan/drive wheel and it`ll turn tham off about rock tumbling in a hurry.

I won`t ever buy one of these again and hope this review helps you decide on a better built rock tumbler. I am thinking about building one myself because you can spen alot money on these toget something that won`t run over 2 weeks without breaking down…

I hope you find this review helpful and I am only speaking about tumblers I have first hand knowledge and personal experience of..

What is an appraisal?

Jewelry & Watches February 17th, 2008

An appraisal is an opinion as to the authenticity, quality, design and value of a peice of jewelry. Since it is an opinion, backed and supported by training, equipment and experience, it is important to understand there can be honest vaiations between competent appraisals. Most people commonly believe that the declared price evaluation is the most important aspect of an appraisal. THIS IS NOT TRUE! Actually, the most important part (and the most protective to the customer) is an explicit description of the jewelry item, accurately depicting the design, the metal, and the stones.
