New Diamond Kiosk
Have you seen our new diamond design kiosk? It just arrived a couple of weeks ago and is a great addition to the store and another way that you can create something special and unique - just for you.
The kiosk features an area with 25 ring samples you can try on, an iPad that allows you to search for diamonds and other ring styles and some additional rings that you can purchase. We think that this is going to be a lot of fun. Stop in and try it!

Kimberly's Carats
Zircon sometimes contains traces of uranium, irradiating itself and changing its properties.
Montezuma, thinking Cortes was Quetzalcoatl, gave him the god’s favorite gem: turquoise.
Tanzanite has only one source: the hills of Merelani in northern Tanzania.

December Birthstones
December has more than enouch birthstones from which to choose. There can be as many as four - Blue Zircon, Tanzanite, Turquoise and Blue Topaz.

Opaque turquoise and transparent zircon are both prized since ancient times. And the newest birthstone, glittering purple blue tanzanite, has become one of the world’s most popular gems. Blue Topaz is also sometimes included as an additional choice for those born in December.
