Examples of our latest design work are displayed on our Home page, and continued on our Custom Jewelry page.  We also offer pieces by Award-winning Fine Jewelry Designers and a wide selection of Estate Jewelry

For the month of December 2011, the Home page is used to offer fine jewelry made by other manufacturers.  We've added a new page labeled "More Fine Jewelry", which is a continuation of the Home page.  In January, it will return to Coralyn's creativity.

This month we decided to make the Home Page a collection of photos taken at the Tucson gem and mineral shows.  These photos represent more of the "rock" side of the shows.  Most of the shows DO NOT allow photography, so there are no shots of plates full of rubies or sapphires or diamonds or beautifully designed jewelry (that's what my home shows are about).

Above are the lovely Saguaro Cactus, which live to be hundreds of years old.  It can take a cactus 50 years to grow its first arm.  Then there's Coralyn & Dwight with the Eastern mountains of Tucson in the background.

Here we are at an outdoor venue.  These are all geodes, rocks that have been cut open and are filled with purple (amethyst) or orange (citrine) quartz crystals.  As you can see they come in all sizes.  Most of these come from Brazil.

The two large photos above are typical of what we find at the motels.  People set up right in their motel room and put their displays inside and outside.  In both of these, there are lots of quartz crystals for sale (clear, pink, purple, smoky).  Clear quartz is often referred to as "rock crystal" or as in this dealer's place, Herkimer Diamonds.  Notice how large a single crystal can get.
