A Most Valuable Piece of Jewelry


Well, we would be amiss if we did not mention one of the most famous jewels of our time. 
Affectionately known as the Princess Diana Sapphire, this stunning ring now graces the finger of Princess Kate nee Middleton, wife of Prince William of Wales. I do believe they both have more officious titles, but I am not sure what those are exactly :)
So instead I will share what another blogger has written about this famous jewel.  
You can read more by clicking on the link below.
"Princess Diana is an iconic figure. No wonder the royal jewelry that she wore which is now in the hands of Kate Middleton will be valued at a price of $38,488. This ring was given by Prince Charles to Lady Diana Spencer on their engagement. Aside from the actual price. This ring is historically significant."

Feature: A Gold Watch that Brings Back Time


This Gold watch is an excellent gift, but for a very small arm.  The lady who wore it, was very tiny! 
Measurements available on request. 
It is battery operated and still works!

Organic Gemstones

Did you know that there are only a few gemstones that are classified as organic gemstones? 
These gems are organic materials used as gems.   So, basically, these became precious because we looked at them and said "Pretty!  These must be valuable."  And now, items like ivory in particular are precious, because of the history of how ivory was obtained.
But there are other kinds of gems that are technically "organic" - these mainly are rocks... But that is for another post.

Ah, the scrunchie! It's apparently made a comeback and I like it. Whoot!  Lovely warm heart sweater from Otaku Crafts & Leggins from Urban Planet, and of course, a nice vintage chunk bracelet from
